Video doesn’t show the body slam. Rarely are body slams needed. It seems that too many cops have been watching pro-wrestling.
You can find it on YouTube. Dude was just walking to work in the morning and the cop body slammed him within 60 seconds of encountering the confused gentleman. They had the wrong guy but still charged him with a crime anyway simply for asking why he was being stopped and manhandled.
I’ll have to go watch it. I’m not one to say a body slam is never necessary as we can’t predict every scenario but I am one to say it’s used more than it should be. A simple take Down should rarely lead to a serious injury. Yet we are seeing people fucked up all the time.
The guy wasn’t being combative at the time. The cop had him pressed against the hood of his car and the guy simply turned his head to ask him why he was being treated like that. The cop picked him up in a bear hug and slammed him right down onto his neck. He even had the audacity to tell the guy to shut up as he was groaning in agony on the ground. All because he was walking to work. The body slam is within the first 2 minutes of the video.
