I'm surprised the officer reacted that way with the security camera right there.

Lucky it wasnt Chuck friggin Norris or she would have woke up in 1869

Probably shouldn't of kicked her in the head. That said, give him a one day unpaid vacation and a slip of paper in his file and move on.

Guy judo kicked her and went back to writing the citation like it was nothing. That was the part that made me LOL. |

Quoted:
They should both face assault charges. +1 She's restrained, is unable to put up any meaningful resistance. Cop is supposed to be professional. I'd expect him to back up and add assaulting an officer to the booking charges. |

The woman, although certainly verbally abusive, drunk, and obnoxious was cuffed, shoeless, and seated. There's NO WAY she posed any threat to the cop. BTW, the cop just barely managed to keep his real, department job after punching out a jogger not long ago.
We pay––and train–– police officers to respond appropriately to circumstances. This guy was clearly out of line, and is VERY likely to be found guilty at his trial. After that, and for good measure, the civil lawsuit against him and his employer at the time, namely the casino, is certain to follow. Not to mention that this guy was STUPID enough to do this while being taped. Either way you cut it, he shouldn't have either a gun or a badge. This woman hit the jackpot, all right, just not in the usual way. |

I laughed...
I like how he went right back to what he was doing. I'm surprised that so many of you think it was excessive force. He made her stop and did not keep beating on her. Just one nicely place pop to the cheek. If a suspect was in cuffs and standing there and decided to cause a problem I'm sure they would get face-planted right into the sidewalk. |

Quoted:
He should have taken a step back and then charged her with assault. He done fucked up. It was pretty funny, though. Yep. Excessive force. I've had people kick at me, spit on me, and try to bite me while I had them in cuffs. Because THEY ARE IN CUFFS I wasn't justified in kicking them. Really...it's not rocket science. Force continuum and all that. |

I wish bad things to happen to that man. He is not better than anyone else who hits a woman. If the piece of shit wouldn't be wearing a badge all of you apologists would be thumping your chests saying how much of a pussy he is for hitting a woman. Fuck him. He doesn't deserve to be a police officer. Pussy. Someone has never arrested a noncompliant female if they think gender has anything to do with use of force. No, but I've had to subdue a pissed off girlfriend before because she walked in on me with another chick and I was able to do so without striking her. He is a pussy and so is anyone else who hits an unarmed, let alone handcuffed woman. Oh ye of moral consistency. Nice. |

Bitch deserved it! After watching the video, I agree. She seemed to be looking for a fight. I'm not so sure that it was smart of that officer to deliver it, though. I suspect the kick wasn't really much of a hit, but it looks severe, and that's what will matter. If he did give her a full-on kick then IMHO he went overboard. I can't tell from the vid, though. |

The cuffs were on. She should have been controlled, not struck. This. Prone her out, zip tie her legs, put her in a patrol car. No excuse for focused blows at that point, certainly not a boot to the head. |

Exactly WHAT DO YOU EXPECT will happen if you kick a cop? Sheezuz. To have an additional charge to face in court... what do YOU expect to happen? |
|
I laughed... she deserved it.
At the same time, the officer went too far and should face repercussions. It really didn't look like that hard of a kick, but it's still not something to do to a handcuffed person sitting down. Write up an additional charge and let the judicial system handle it. |

I believe the additional charge of simple assault would not be an effective deterrence. The immediate kick to the head served as an effective deterrence. No more agressive behavior was observed. I don't give a shit about people's feelings in this regard. Oh noes! She's a woman, he should have mroe restraint. Bullshit.

Have you been trained on the Force Continuum (as it relates to your job in LE), proper behavior when dealing with handcuffed suspects, and how to ensure continued compliance of a suspect (without physically assaulting them)? The issue is not that she's a woman; the issue is that the suspect was restrained in cuffs and was not an immediate threat. Therefore, his kick was an excessive use of force and an EXTREME lack of judgement. |

I am not a LEO, but I am foremost a human being and I don't care what "training" you have had. The woman was an idiot and recieved adequate reward for her stupidity. SHe may have even learned something useful. Your training makes YOU the recipient of more bullshit, not less.

Hah.
He should probably get charged with simple assault.... kicking someone in handcuffs is a big no no. She should face aggravated assault charges on top of her assault charges that she has already. |

NOT A COP BASHING STATEMENT: yes she kicked first, but it really didn't warrant the elementary action of kicking back. It is not as if she could apply any force or pain in a kick from that position unless that large cop is really just a pussy with a badge. |

WOW look another PEACE OF SHIT COP.
http://www.wpri.com/dpp/news/providence-lincoln-officer-had-assault-conviction He was convicted of misdemeanor assault back in 2001 after he punched a man who was jogging with friends in Cumberland. Chris McGill said Krawetz, who was off-duty and driving his own vehicle at the time, veered towards them and almost hit them. Krawetz said one of those joggers flipped him off and 'got in his face' when Krawetz stopped, but McGill and other witnesses said Krawetz waved his badge and punched McGill. Krawetz's family was in the car with him when the confrontation occurred. ___________________________________________________________________________Looks like the the BLUE LINE PROTECTED ANOTHER ONE. If he had been fire and imprisoned in 2001 we would not be paying for his fuck up in 2011. I want to know home many people this THUG (COP) has beaten while on duty and got away with it. ETA: Better Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvoQRdSFiDw&feature=related To bad one of the joggers didn't have a CCW this would have been a self righting problem back in 2001. |

I laughed. Play stupid games and all that.
However, a kick to the shin, barefoot, does not require a solid kick in the back of the head hard enough to put the lights out. Seems excessive to me. I have seen what solid blows to the noggin' can do, and it can be pretty damn bad. The risk of injury to the officer was far less than that of the woman, blow versus blow. ETA: According to the partner, from the video, the officer didn't even express concern for any injury to himself, or that his safety was ever in question. Didn't even further restrain her upon the incident. Sure doesn't sound like it was self defense. It would be like me catching a slap from my SO, and me throwing a roundhouse kick to her head. I sure as hell couldn't claim self defense. |

I believe he was not acting instinctually or reactively - if he was then he would have backed away / jumped away to evade while possibly delivering a kick - not nonchalantly continuing to write while punting her head. If he really felt threatened he would have moved to evade as well - that's a normal human reaction.
He was intentionally punishing her, and he went too far. That was a disproportionately hard blow and genuinely risked severely injuring her. Both parties were in the wrong entirely and both should be charged, and he and his employer should be sued. He should not be entrusted to enforce law / protect people. A person like that will abuse any position of authority. -JC |

Quoted: Actually it is very specific. Please enlighten us with your experience with use of force. If I get slapped by a women in public, does UoF dictate I can use a roundhouse kick to the head in "self defense"? How about an uppercut right under the chin? Hell, even a solid jab right to the nose? |
