Tragic. I’m pro police, but not when they act like this. And jail/prison guards are notoriously corrupt. Just ask Epstein...

I don’t know what he was arrested for, but when he started harming himself in the cell they should have put him in restraints or a rubber room, or called in a doctor or sent him in an ambulance cuffed to the bed. Letting him bang his head for hours is just not humane.

Big bad tough cops against a defenseless autistic person but sit on their hands when buildings are set on fire and rioters rampage through the streets.

Low IQ and lack of empathy is generally a bad combination, and there may be 9 examples of that in this unfortunate story.

government solutions for everything are bureaucratic, legalistic, inhuman, and “one-size-fits all,” often tending towards brutal. Its the nature of operating large organizations. The bigger it is, the worse it becomes. Its always been that way, and always will be that way.

What always surprises me is individual leftists, who claim virtuous “compassion” for themselves, always hypocritically support the “big-government solution.”

You’re better off avoiding anyone with any affiliation with the government.

Perhaps forest and park rangers haven’t been corrupted yet, I hope.

What does this article say the police or guards did?

Why are you pro-police?

Do you choose to live in an area where you believe the police will protect you from the people you choose to live around?

I’m no more pro-police than I am pro-mailman. They perform a perfunctory task (sometimes writing tickets or taking reports after a crime) just like mailmen do (delivering unwanted ads, bills and sometimes letters to my house). I could live without either of them.

Then again, I choose to live around civilized, first world people of European decent so I don’t need the cops to protect me from them.

My sister is also very pro-police. She chooses to live around animals. A couple months ago, her car was hit by 4 of them in a traffic accident. They were clearly high on marijuana. When the police arrived, they said they don’t write tickets or creates reports on traffic accidents any more. The “teens” now deny it was their fault and their insurance is not paying for her damages.

Did you miss all the police kneeling for George Floyd and arresting people for not wearing masks?

Trammell proceeded to bang his head on the cell door as he desperately screamed: ‘Let me out’

That’s just crazy. No wonder he needed an ambulance. Those doors are heavy and not be messed with.

One act like this destroys the kind acts of a thousand LEO’s.

These aren't police, they're actually... uh, pigs.

Stupid, brutish, pig-headed, pigs.
