Yawn. It’s a blatant choke hold. Pretty easy to see for those with clear vision and no bias. Nothing under any arm pit, quit lying.
No it isn’t
Actually, if you watch the video, you will see the officer slips his right arm under suspects right arm, he puts his left arm over suspects chest and pulls suspect down to the right while pushing him on his chest.
I practice Krav Maga, and it is actually not easy to even get into the choke hold, when we are practicing the techniques to get out of a choke hold. My practice partner is taller than me and it is hard to get my forearm into the right “choke” position, as our instructors want us to, when we are playing “bad guy”. It is clear that the officers forearm is not under the suspects chin at all, it is on his chest for about 3 seconds and then the suspect is pulled/pushed down to the right and to the ground.
Nobody is lying, just carefully watch the video...
