If you were on that police department, would YOU want to work with that incompetent blimp?
No fracking way...
Well, I have no idea what the officer was thinking, but I know what I saw in the video. None of this needed to happen. And I can not explain his actions or lack of.
But based on the video, this should have resulted in a simple arrest and a mental referral for the young lady.
End of story.
