"It's a ruse man." These dudes don't even think anymore. Zero 🧠🧠🧠 🤡
How!???!!?? 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Why are theset people in charge of policing
I swear cops are so dense and stupid…who gives these imbeciles a gun and badge? Even after one of their own calls out common sense their chief finds a way to be a colossal dimwit.
She needs to be locked up for the max sentance for breaking down a door and assaulting someone. The cops that arrested and the lieutenant need to be fired and banned from being cops ever again. What an absolute disgrace
I watched the full video of this. It's some lobotomy level stupidity.
Cops dont care. they can't, if I've seen more than one video like this and I have seen several videos with cops doing this to other disabled people. They're either stupid or tyrants maybe both.
Ignorance is no excuse.. unless you’re a cop. Why is that???
God bless that black cop for being the only one there with empathy.
How did he choke you out when you ran away this cop should be fired luckily the other guy had more sense then that cop trying to arrest him
People fake stuff all the time either one of them could've been telling the truth the real mystery is why would she accuse him what did he do with her to upset her so much
"If the door was kicked in… he didn't kick it in" is the most intelligent thing a cop has ever said
Bro common sense isn’t so common anymore and it’s annoying tf outta me smh🤦♂️
Has she been charged with filing a false police report?
That's a nonwalking lawsuit. He's gonna roll up in that shit like he owns the BCH.
Should have called lift assist paramedics when he was pulled out of the wheel chair. Proper assessment could have been made. What is the rush? Paraplegic is a game changer. Poor judgement is a money maker for arrestee.
Send them to El Salvador! Demons!
WOW! How lazy can you be to just get up and go see what is happening? These are paid officials with tax payer money!! The arresting officer needs to find a different job not working with the public. Picking up garbage would be a better fit. You can't trust wannabe police to make judgement calls if they don't have common sense!!!
American cops are very unintelligent.
Ok. I don’t much like cops but the fake OMG OMG and falling out of his chair when he was barely touched was a bit much.
We need to defund laziness.
The Lieutenant is an OBVIOUS IDIOT OVER PROMOTED for HIS IDIOCY. These Police Officers must be Fired and Dismissed and Certification removed so they can't repeat their bad behaviour and Police Bullying and Bearing of False Witness against an innocent Citizen.
They should put that senior officer in prison for the same amount of time as they were gonna put this guy in prison.
Fire this LT.
And now your body camera is the civil rights attorney
What can I dodge today?
How many days to retirement?
Lieutenant does his best work at his desk. Lazy bastard.
Thank God for the one good police officer and if any body cares he was black and his fucked up boss was white thank you black guy your so up holding the law
