That is a shame.. I don’t care what she said to them.. As a police officer that is a part of the job.. I’m sure he as heard worse things said to him but from bigger guys that he could not so easily take advantage of.. I hope he gets all that he deserves.. Not that history would support that..

to make the wrong judgments? Oh please? that’s not even necessary for him to do that because she threw a shoe, she didn’t even kick the damn thing. He didn’t have to pull by her hair. Goodness! That’s a mess, I don’t think it will last in court. I hope not. He got mad because she called him a name.

Police officers have no right to beat up a minor no matter what she does. If she does attack them they should have hold her firmly and try to calm her down instead of beating her up.

March 1, 2009 at 3:28 pm
this is terrible, that is wat the cell is 4-u lock her up, i dnt care wat she said, ther is NOT reason 2 beat a lil girl like that, she is a child-u lock her up! she will learn-

March 1, 2009 at 4:45 pm
wow! There is no justification for this type of behavior. Policeman are here to protect and serve… At what point will they have to suffer consequences for their mis-behavior… They are not above the law themselves are they?? JUST WRONG!
Told ya so
March 1, 2009 at 6:05 pm
I agree with Brianna,
Why isn’t the media all over this case?
This is too much!
That cops is done! That whole dept. should be getting in trouble.

Well goodness! Them two GROWN?? men could not take some smart remarks from a fifteen year old. I wonder what they do when they arrest someone who is the same age as them and talks silly too them??? Also I thought one that since it was a female being held they was suppose to be a female officer present? Second did someone call a parent, fifteen year olds don’t go to Juvie????

So she kicked off her shoe at them and called them names, so what, what are they children on the playground? These are grown a$$ men and they hit that child like a grown a$$ man. They could have just locked the cell door and that would have been it. I’m tired of the police using excessive force on people.
Ace
March 1, 2009 at 8:31 pm
They should have just threw the shoe right back at her then closed the cell, and pressed charges against her for assaulting a police officer.

This is the same guy who shot a guy who he said was drunk, but they only found caffeine in his system. This guy has issues and should be locked up! The 15 yr old did not diserve this, the video shows everything and there is no other side of the story. The video proves it all.

BULLSHIT!
I saw what happend, I don’t give a crap if the girl called tthem fat pigs OR NOT.
When they pushed on to the wall, violently, and pulled her by her hair. I don’t give a shit why she ended up in jail, she shouldn’t have been treated as such. And pulling her up by her hair? Just plain FOUL.

March 1, 2009 at 11:41 pm
this is not acceptable at all. I dont care what name she called his ass! he had no right to beat her like that. I bet if someone hit his daughter( if he has one or ever does) he wouldnt like that at all. THis is the law? these are the f***** excuses they make for Cops. I bet if it was anybody else I be we be locked up for attempted murder!

March 1, 2009 at 11:51 pm
thats true, the media should focus on stuff like this instead of that rhi rhi and chris brown crap. whatever she did wrong doesnt result in her getting beaten by officers, and she is only 15…for kicking off her shoe and profanity is petty

who the hell cares what the other side is? and only charging him with assault? what about battery?? and he should not be on paid administrative leave!
this is out of hand police have had issues using restraint on their authority and the problem is growing and growing because of the ridiculous about of leeway they are given. this is disgusting.
did anyone hear about the 12-year old who was attacked because police thought she was a prostitute? http://blogs.houstonpress.com/hairballs/2008/12/galveston_false_arrest.php

Now what some of these folks need to realize is that it’s the same fucking thing in the case of Rihanna and Chris Brown. There ain’t no way in hell anything can justify the behavior shown in this video. And nothing can justify the beating Rihanna recieved from Chris..and if his coward ass wants to claim some self-defense….

No they didnt! Not in my own town. Those bastards. The king county jail has more drama than anything. they ‘retired’ the administrator for sexual misconduct after he sent my viral video of me dancing in my undies to LL Cool J’s Headsprung to all of the people that work at the jail as a joke. The women weren’t amused and it was a huge mess. That video from the news is on my you tube page http://www.youtube.com/thejackebrown

I don’t care what she said , she is a child . If i was to beat my child like that , they would lock me up. So he is no better than i am. She did’t put her hands on him.Don’t they teach them self control. Half of them need some class on that.

This is jacked up how can a grown man jump a teenager like that, this is the united states of America not a third world country.Both officers should get fired and if the chief of police disagrees then he should go too.he could have easily broke any bone or neck.

Lord, what is going on?! Police officers (not all) feel that just because they have the law on their side they’re entitled to do whatever they want with their “power”. And the sad part is the law will justify it. So what she got lippy, called them “fat pigs” and kicked her shoe off at him. She didn’t get physical with him, so he shouldn’t have used excessive force! If he’s done it this time on camera, I wonder how many times he’s done it off camera. And we’re supposed to trust the police and believe they’re the ones we, as citizens, can depend on? Well, I sure don’t and I hate that I feel that way. Too much has happened for me to say that I can. I know there are more good cops than bad, but it frightens to feel that one day I’ll come across a bad one. God forbid that ever happens. I hope he’s found guilty and stripped of his badge.

I see he is a real coward and he punches like a lil $i$$y.He and the other officer won’t get to retire because someone will eventually get them. HA HA and I will laugh my A$$ off. THOSE DIRTY Si$$ies. I hope they see this, i would love for him to try an beat me. YEA I SAID IT!!! OHHHHH i HATE COWARDS.

Here is what scares me. She is a girl and he even that wasn’t a deterent to this officer. If he’s married that means he wouldn’t have a problem beating her and because he’s an officer he gets an out. This baby is going to need some counseling.

Where’s the NAACP? Even though the child had an attitude doesn’t justify for the adult to put his hands on her. Would he have hit a white child? No, how would he feel if that was his child in the cell? Karma is a mother….

That is wrong on every level because a male cop is not allowed to even search a female minor unless there is a female present and same with a female cop. But that is no excuse for that cop to of beat her up and the cop should have unpaid and if he isn’t found guilty he should get retro pay for the time he missed.

A fifteen year old says a smart remark and kicks her shoe at him and this alleged grown man felt the need to beat her like that? He kicked her, looked to have punched her in the face, slammed her against the wall and then the floor, punched her twice in the back of the head and then pulled her up by her hair. What a coward!!!! Wanna be men, weak ass boys in men bodies, should not be cops. This punk is a prime example. I hope she is compensated for the rest of her life and he is fired!!! Punk ass!!!

I had watched this video about 10 times now. I am so disgusted and furious that a cop would literally assault a 15 year old girl. “What was he thinking?”- To not have the common sense to know that a teenage girl will act out verbally, and have no thought about her actions taking place at the moment. But how as an ADULT and a COP could he not think about his own actions. There was no justice from a shoe being kicked off at, for a cop to intentionally kick, punch, and slam some one’s head against a wall.
There are some good cops out there, some where out there. Lately, all I have seen are cops abuse their power given to them. Example, this video right here shows that cops will cross the line, the messed up part, the other officer in the room did nothing to stop his fellow officer from sucker punching a little teenage girl, who at that point was defenseless.
It doesn’t seem to matter, because unlike us REGULAR CIVILIANS, if we were to talk on our cell phones while driving, or do 70mph in a 50, or run a red light, we get ticketed and fined. But I always see cops talking on their cell phone, and I see them speed when their lights are off. I even watch one cop stop at a red light for 1 second, saw no cars and run it. While I had to wait for the light to turn green rather or not there were no cars. That little bit that cops abuse, they would say really is not an issue, has no importance. They don’t realize, that it becomes a habit and they still continue to attempted to cross the line. Those little things I have just mentioned are just the steps they take up to the line. “What happens when they do cross it?”
Incidents like this happen, which could of been avoided. Still, us REGULAR CIVILIANS, know what happens when we cross the line. “What happens when a cop crosses the line?” “You think it is justice when a cop tries to weigh the Good and the Wrong he has ever done?”- Because of that a cop will never get a fair punishment for his own actions which could have been prevented. Cops look at it, well this fellow officer took ONE wrong option, but he has done so many good things, we should give him a break, right? Like I said, I watched the video about 10 times. That cop did not take ONE wrong option in handling the situation, that cop took FIVE. That cop did not have to kick her, that cop did not have to through her head against the wall, that cop did not have to punch her, not just once but twice, and that cop did not have to handle her by her hair. “What the HELL was he thinking?”
Think about it, compare them. An Adult against a Teenager. A Man against a Girl. A suppose highly trained officer against a regular civilian. An all he might get is a year in jail, if that, and stripped from his duties. But if a regular civilian man beat up a regular teenage girl, you know that man would be locked up away in jail so fast and spend a few years in there for assaulting a minor.
No matter if someone were to tell me, you need to hear and understand both sides of the story in order to truly speak your mind on the situation. To be honest, I don’t need to. I didn’t even need to hear the interview with the 15 year old girl. That video spook louder then words. There was no justice in that video, no matter how many time you try to adjust it. This was not the first time a cop has brutally assaulted a civilian with unnecessary force. “Does it matter?” “Will we see justice in the case?” -probably not!

Thats a damn shame. He shouldnt have beat her down like that just because she kicked her show at him. its not like she hit him with it or anything. Just another example of police officers and their abuse of power at times.

That’s crazy as hell that’s wrong she’s a child that cop had no right to put his hands on her like that.Cops think they can just abuse there authority ,you know why because every time a cop does something bad including killing some one they get away with it shame

March 6, 2009 at 9:40 pm
Isn’t that also child abuse?!!! If someone was on video doing that to there own kid it would be. Wouldn’t of just closing the door make a stronger statement? What does this guy do to his wife if she doesn’t respect his pathetic ASS??

March 13, 2009 at 6:16 pm
…this type of behavior from a police officer is not acceptable. The girl is 15. If this video was released and a officer was not the one beating her, the man would be in jail “GUILTY” with no if’s and’s or but’s about the situation! There is nothing to question here, no matter what the “child” said to the “grown man”! He is a cop, was he not trained in handling “smart mouth” situations? You have the video, there is no need to even waste money going to court! He is guilty, he is a man, and he put his hands on a female, a 15 year old at that!

March 14, 2009 at 12:44 pm
this is just another example of the law using there authority in the wrong ways there is no other side of the story they took it as chance to just beat the hell out of a child they should be charged to the full extent of the law and should never be able to be on the force again. This child for the rest of her life will be scared to call for help because of what they have done. I don’t know anyone who would consider this as ok I think that are law enforcement should be monitored more.
