RE: Police Upset Over Leaked Footage Of Assault On Jaywalker

in #news6 years ago

It is critically important that the people we choose to enforce laws are themselves accountable to said laws...

There's no excuse whatsoever for such a violent beating regardless of whether or not he was refusing to comply, the officer (Hickman) should be in jail and the chief (Hooper) should be fired.

I'm amazed that someone (Hickman) who had several previous incidents of rude and discourtious behavior with the public was doing training!

The punishment for an officer breaking the law should be greater then for a citizen because they are supposed to be trustworthy, what would be the punishment, as a citizen, if you were to just tase someone and violently punch them in the head while they were on the ground? A lot more than a resignation... sick.
