Disgusting police activity: beating, murder

(KCAL News) July 29, 2024: Video shows [abusive] LAPD officer punching handcuffed Black man [abusing him under color of authority] in South Los Angeles. The unnamed officer from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) has been removed from field duty after punching a helpless man being detained with another armed officer on video [and is being considered for felony charges unless those who decide whether or not to charge him, his colleagues in the LAPD, find an excuse for the punch, show him the video, provide him no cost legal advice, coach him on what to say, take his statement only after consideration, reconsideration, and multiple opinions to form an airtight rationalization and justification that will stand up in any possible subsequent investigation or attempted civil litigation]. The video shows him punching the Black man he handcuffed after a simple traffic stop he allowed to escalate in his impatience and mistreatment of an uncharged citizen who is presumed innocent even if charged. He has not been suspended, fired, relieved of duty, or given anything worse than a cush assignment behind a desk indoors in an air conditioned office.
