As a former (ret.) police officer, I find this disgusting. If I couldn’t take a cane away from an 80 old without using a Taser, I would have turned in my badge.
I couldn’t agree more, but I have not been a police officer.
I just think the Taser is far over the top for an older person like that.
It may be a great tool for someone younger who is observably going to be a hard person to handle. For a person that is elderly, you’re probably going to risk hurting them far more than you need to.
It’s just a real shame to handle an older woman like that.
