Shocking footage has emerged of an Ohio woman handcuffed and charged with resisting arrest after sheriffs deputies pinned her down on the floor pried open her mouth to retrieve a Tylenol tablet.
Surveillance video shows Siobhan Householder, 35, of Akron, being confronted last week by a police officer after she took the prescription medication the altercation left her injured and arrested.
Householder was in a holding area while waiting to make a court appearance when she took the medication for a tooth infection, she told the Akron Beacon-Journal.

I can assure you I will blame the people responsible for their own behavior...
If they are stupid enough to consume enough drugs to OD, it will be their fault...and nobody else
Yes.

Note that the office is either very happy to see the driver, or he really, really, really finds his job, um, exciting...
The story was reported here
ROSEVILLE, Calif. (AP) Some residents of a suburban Sacramento city still were waiting to return to their homes 24 hours after a Friday night shootout between law enforcement agents and a wanted parolee left six officers injured.With this guy running loose the local and state police were understandably a wee bit antsy...Roseville police spokesman Lt. Cal Walstad said that one Roseville police officer with a jaw wound and a federal immigration agent shot in the leg remain hospitalized Saturday in serious condition. Four other Roseville officers injured by shrapnel were treated and released.
The suspect in the violent confrontation that ended after an hours-long standoff is a validated gang member with a criminal record that includes assault and carjacking. Samuel Nathan Duran, 32, was taken to the Placer County jail Saturday after being treated for scrapes and cuts after surrendering just after midnight.
"Last night our community experienced what can happen in any when a violent wanted felon is completely committed to not going back to jail," said Roseville Police Chief Daniel Hahn at a news conference Saturday...

Reading through the posts, I see that you are asking questions and suggesting alternative possibilities. For that, it is being suggested that you are a boot licker. And IMO, that is uncalled for.
The millions spent may help the people electing the folks that hire the cops vote for better management. An elected person can clean up the police department when it stinks like a pig sty.
There is no good excuse for what they did to that woman.
That's wild.
Correct.
It SHOULD help, but never has helped yet. Millions have been paid, settled, and it still goes on just the same.
The cops can aim at me if they think I have a bomb strapped to me, but they’d better have a damn good reason otherwise.
He restrained her for her safety...
That's the equivalent of my older bother telling me to stop hitting myself.
That would explain it. Child abuse has terrible consequences.
Aye. That it does.
Apparently there IS a time for drawing and quartering, and I’m not referring to people medicating toothaches.
Unless you deal with addicts all the time, youre hardly in a place to judge them.
You are a drug addict.
There, now I can treat you any way I like and NO ONE can question it. You know, 'cuz they don't deal with addicts like you all the time....
I saw the video and I didnt see anything malicious on part of the deputy. He witnessed her consuming a pill and didnt know what that pill was. He didnt beat her or throw her around or anything else that bad cops do.
The alternative possibility for him, not knowing why the woman consumed a pill was a possible OD.
In this case, I can support the deputy.

This is not normal procedure for od in any circumstances. Ever. Taken to hospital and monitored. YOur support is misguided.
So this picture is how LEO treats citizens when looking for a suspect.
The man in the picture was not the suspect.
If I am misguided, than she will get a substantial settlement. If what happened is within reasonable, as defined by the law and department policy than she won’t.
If I am, as you say, a drug addict, than am I not eminently qualified to say whether I believe that the cop acted appropriately under the circumstances?
Thanks for considering me as an authority on the matter.
