I stated that I don’t know the laws wherever this was, but I think the cop broke the law by not being in an official car. Or, do they have cop trucks in Orem Utah? Where I live, street cops and deputies cannot arrest people unless they have an official transport.
This cop appeared to be a bully. Do you know what handcuffs could do to people that age, especially if they weren’t warranted? How about sores that sometimes never heal.
Besides, my other half is a retired deputy, my son is a detective, and both of them think this cop used excessive force. Evidently, so did his boss. I read in another article about the same thing.
You have no clue as to whether he was in an “official” vehicle or not. Many agencies use pickup trucks.
I guess where you live, cops and deputies can not walk a foot beat or use bicycles or horses. Quite frankly, I don’t believe you.
This cop may or may not be a bully or he may just lack common sense. I don’t know and neither do you, just like you have no clue about the condition of his lawn, and/or any other motivating factors in this case.
Handcuffs will cause the same injury to a person whether they are warranted or not.
What does use of excessive force have to do with “official” transport, or the condition of the cop’s lawn?
Your comments are disjointed, and illogical.
