Florida Police Taser Beat And Arrest Man For Walking

submitted by newtboy

1 year 6 months 2 weeks ago

3 Florida police stopped a man for walking while black, apparently a felony in Florida, entered his name incorrectly, then tased and beat him for supplying a false name (he gave his full correct name clearly even though he had no obligation to identify himself).
The officer’s immediate went to 11, tasing him but failing, then tackling the elderly man causing injury.
Only officer Nelson who repeatedly tased the elderly man even after he was tackled and in handcuffs had ANY repercussions…and only AFTER the footage went public.

I had a similar incident when a Palo Alto police officer misread my license plate and put his gun to my head, yanked me from my car, jumped on my neck, and cuffed me as tight as he could squeeze the cuffs before realizing his mistake….he then threatened me that I shouldn’t report it because he had taken down my name and address and it would be trouble if I did. The desk Sergeant refused to take my report. That was in 87.

Cops have no reason to stop the guy.

They did the guy wrong.

Why can you see that here but not in the identical circumstances on the other video where dogs were released before anything?
Where the tackle was immediate with zero resistance?
Where the man who was just released from a voluntary commitment because he thought police were trying to kill him was immediately violently attacked by a dozen police with dogs because they thought he might have done something….there’s no report of any escapees or crime but he’s WWB, that’s suspicious itself, and open ended suspicion by cop is apparently a crime to you. (Hint, it’s not, and stopping someone for “suspicion” but having no idea of what is called harassment and is illegal).
