Student Has Teeth Shattered By Police Officer

Police work is a dangerous job, and police are more than likely to be put into situations when excessive force is needed. But, sometimes police use excessive force for their own personal reasons, such as, racism. The issue of police officers using excessive force may or may not be of great concern, but it should be looked into by both the police and the public. Because some officers use excessive force in situations when it is not needed, police brutality should be addressed.

However, the dialogue picks up again, and the bitterness continues. After she exits, they all talk to each other, pretty much asking, “what the heck was that all about?”

Hand to hand combat: A certain amount of aggression is necessary to control the environment; however, these officers could have easily loss control of the situation if the criminal had reached for a gun. Their actions were foolish. Not only did they jeopardize the integrity of any possible charges, their actions could have further damaged police and community relations.

Police work is dangerous. Sometimes police put in situations that excessive force is needed. But, because some officers use

There were boycotts of the malls in Baton Rouge, people were marching even holding up traffic. This didn’t only occur in Baton Rouge, but across the U.S. people were standing up for this injustice. Alton Sterling was selling cd in front of a convenience store when two officers approached him, the situation escalated Mr. Sterling was shot several times resulting in his death. Baton Rouge police did not provide much information about what escalated the incident between the officers and Sterling or what prompted an officer to fire his weapon. A witness, however, described police as “aggressive” and said Sterling was armed but was not holding his gun or touching his pockets during the incident. The level of force an officer uses varies based on the situation. Because of this variation, guidelines for the use of force are based on many factors, including the officer’s level of training or experience.

The officers claimed that she had become argumentative and uncooperative, therefore causing her to be arrested on a charge of assaulting a public servant.

On November 17, 2015, at approximately 1149 hours, LFCC Student Ashby, Berry approached the information service desk and advised Ms. Cindy D’Ambro that he needed to speak to a Police or Security Officer regarding a matter. At that time I Sergeant Clyde Hilliard was in the back room of the Information Service Office making a copy. I responded out and met with Student Ashby Berry # 6783310. Mr. Ashby advised he is currently taking a class in room #207 and the Professor is Mohamad Riasati. Mr. Ashby notified Sgt. Hilliard that one of his class mates has already departed the class room and he is leaving early because he feels like the Professor is drunk and falling asleep during the class. He mentioned that several Students in the class room are talking about how hammered he is. Mr. Ashby further advised he feels like he is paying a lot of money for the class and he feels like the Professor should not be drunk.

Violent physical assault on a U.S citizen can be gauged as cruel and unprofessional. Police force should only be used if it helps with an arrest or if they sense their life is in danger. If a citizen is resisting or attacking an officer, then force would be acceptable to a certain extent. Even if there was resistance, the officer could easily restrain the citizen in other ways as a result of proper training. When police officers have the numbers to help arrest a citizen the use of force, should be avoided as much as possible. When the citizen is already in custody and cuffed, then the assault should stop immediately

Many police officers decide that it is best to use force. Even when it is not required. An innocent man asked a police officer to move his vehicle out of his driveway and the officer forced him out of his house. The officer had a “...history of brutality, attacked him, tasered him in the back, kidnapped him and threw him in a cage for weeks — causing him to lose his job, his house, and his dignity” (Algorist). This cop chose to harm an innocent man and risk his job over a simple question that could have been resolved in a much safer manner. The cop used force towards the man and the man was not a criminal.

In my opinion, the officer received a slap on the wrist. I have watched the video footage multiple times and did not see Sarah Reed, biting his finger that leads me to believe that his claim is false. If, in fact, it was true, as an officer who is supposed to serve and protect the citizens, PC Kiddie should not have reacted that violently. I

Police officers should know their limits and not use excessive force when it’s really not needed. In some cases the officer beats the victim when the victim didn’t do anything. Police brutality happens when a pedestrian is violently assaulted by an officer and the officer uses excessive force in which case is not needed. In the Article, “New Orleans man: I wasn’t drunk” it states that in October 9th, 2005, a retired teacher was assaulted by the police even though he was not resisting arrest, he still got assaulted and the man received stitches and bandages.

Now everyone is scream foul at the officer for taking action to detain the young girl. Clearly forgetting the three times the officer faced threats from her little “tough” friends, they instead focus on the officer’s reaction in trying to arrest the girl who is resisting. What is the officer suppose to do at that point, calmly talk to her as she is resisting arrest while she is cursing at him. No, he is an officer; you do what he says and respect it. If the officer does something out of line then one can take action by the justice system against the officer. But if you are ignoring the officer order, they have every right by law to control the situation to restore peace by any means necessary. It 's standard protocol.

Unlike the movies, where the cops and the robbers have gun fights and violent encounters, and it seems that the same officer has several within the same day. It is unnatural for a human being to intentional harm another human being, that is why society is so shocked when they see a violent encounter between two human beings on the news. Furthermore, when that encounter is an law enforcement officer and a citizen, the shock value is multiplied by an x value. However, there are several reasons why these videos are so shocking to society, such as, failure to report all facts from the media, failure of law enforcement to be transparent and forthcoming in a timely manner, or the advent of Youtube or Facebook along with the ability to live stream.

They blocked traffic to the Brooklyn Bridge, shouting racial slurs at the public and the mayor at the time, joined in. In an incident right after the City Hall protest, as police were leaving, several off-duty officers, all in civilian clothes, assaulted a man on the subway who had stepped on one of the officer's feet. The man claimed that he apologized but that the officer attempted to punch the man. The man cut the officer with a razor blade and the other officers, six of them, beat him viciously. (Police Brutality).

The officer in the case misused his authority by committing physical abuse against a handcuffed suspect causing severe and permanent damage. Moral and ethical even though I did not witness the crime occur, I did see my buddies near the police officer's car with admission from them that a crime was committed. My buddies confided in me that they had slashed the officer’s tires. It would be my obligation to report the misdoings and admission of guilt to the captain when pulled in for questioning. We are taught our whole life to stand up to bullies and protect ourselves, don’t bully, be nice and treat others nicely. These morals along with the police Code of Ethics would guide my decision to report the events and help put a stop to the bullying.
