California Highway Patrolman Caught On Tape Pummeling Black Woman

Tyler Durden's picture




 

"Life, liberty, and the pursuit of police brutality?"

In what has quickly become viral as yet another example of extreme (and unchecked) police behavior against the people, California Highway Patrol says that it is investigating footage posted on YouTube that shows a policeman repeatedly punching the face and head of a prostrate woman. As the disturbing clip shows, "the policeman just pounded her," and described by a witness, "If you look at the video, there are 15 hits. To the head, and not just simple jabs. These are blows to the head. Blows. Really serious blows. And this is ridiculous to me... I find it hard to believe there [was] no other remedy in this situation."

Happy Birthday America?

As The BBC reports, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) says that it is looking into the details of the incident, which has been condemned by civil rights leaders.

As a matter of policy, every time there is a use of force by our officers, there is a review conducted to determine whether the use of force was appropriate," a CHP statement said.

 

"That will be done in this case. However, since there is an ongoing investigation, it would be premature to comment on this specific video segment without reviewing the entire incident."

 

When the video starts, the officer is seen trying to detain the barefooted woman, who walks a few steps away from him.

 

But the officer is seen forcing her to the ground, briefly struggling with her before repeatedly pummelling her. A few moments later, a plainclothes officer enters the picture and helps his colleague put the woman in handcuffs.

 

A CHP spokesperson was quoted by CBS Los Angeles on Friday as saying that the agency was trying to bring Tuesday's incident "to a just conclusion".

Starting at around 15 seconds, the CHP officer just loses it...

But, as CBS reports, the community wants answers...

The video caught the attention of local civil rights leaders, who expressed shock and outrage at their own news conference.

 

"Speaking for the women of this community, we are angry, we are upset," said Lita Herron of the Youth Advocacy Coalition.

 

Community activist Earl Ofari Hutchinson, speaking at the local leaders' news conference, agreed.

 

"Over the years, CHP has had a very good track record in terms of community relations," Hutchinson said. "That's why this was so shocking."

 

But Hutchinson said that "excessive force, abuse of authority, is not going to be tolerated," calling for a federal investigation and for the officer to be immediately suspended pending the results of the federal probe, reports CBS Los Angeles.

 

Hutchinson said the group has not received any information from the CHP about the context of the video, although he could not think of a reason that could justify the officer's actions.

 

"We don't know at this point [what occurred before the recording]. The only thing we have the video," he said, insisting that no matter what transpired "the officer crossed the line."

 

"To subdue, that's one thing. But to beat, that's another thing," Hutchinson said.

CHF Chief Chris O'Quinn added...

"I can say that the tape only shows a small part of what transpired. There are events that led up to this. Until that's collected and put into -- perspective, we aren't going to be able to make a determination."

Perhaps the SWATification of America's police force is going to their heads, and the fact that America is rapidly becoming a consequence-free nation, at least judging by America's so-called leaders.

There certainly seems to be excessive force used. From the film clip, it appears that the police officier wished to inflict serious bodily harm. That is felony. A transparent investigation of the circumstances needs to occur and, if indicated, charges need to be brought.

The police force is a band of legalized thugs with badges, make no mistake. Fucking checkpoints, beatings, warrantless wiretaps, and the list goes on. These people are not our friends and are not here to 'protect and serve'. They are low-level bureaucratic thugs to enforce the wishes of the corporate and government elite.

Every profession has outlaws. It's fallacy and error to broadstroke all cops that way. In fact, I did protect and serve. In Idaho checkpoints are illegal. Only state. Not gonna give ya the down arrow- 'cause I get the gist and I still like ya.

boattrash's picture

Lunatic, you're right about the broad stroke thing, but what has caused that mind-set? Seems to me it was brought about by cops protecting the "Blue Line' instead of protecting their oath and the people. Any cop that does not hold himself/coworkers to a higher standard than they do "John Q Public" (as the cops are supposedly trained better) deserves to be placed in the POS category.

  As to legal checkpoints, AR Supreme Court found them Unconstitutional, so the State Police did away with the Vehicle Safety Inspection required to tag your car. Now they call them "Safety Checkpoints". Having been through several checkpoints, I have seen the breathalizers, and narcotics dogs, but oddly enough, they have NEVER checked my tires, wipers, horn, exhaust, Etc...

Just because they can do an end around to make it "legal" damn sure doesn't make it right.

P.S. Thank you for your service, and I hope you are one of the Good Ones.

There are still Andy Griffith type cops, but they are relatively rare and rural.

It is also a large gray area thing in that cops have to deal with bad and even psychotic people all the time. My dad was a cop for a few years and he told some amazing stories. I am sure that if you had a break in or were in physical danger calling 911 this same guy in the video would probably race to help you. The same guy can do both things. The problem is the mentality behind a militarized police force.

When you have both Fox News and MSNBC documenting the same thing you probably have a very large issue.

FreedomGuy,   " I am sure that if you had a break in or were in physical danger calling 911 this same guy in the video would probably race to help you."

 

The first line of defence, is always the individual. That 911 call should be for him to fill out a report and call the coroner/ambulance as needed.

boattrash, I firmly agree with you and I do prepare. However, you get my larger point. The point is that this same guy pummeling this woman will probably also come to rightly help you if he gets the call. It is not 100% thug versus 100% Andy Griffith.

FreedomGuy, point taken. I've seen both good and bad (even from the same individual officers) before. It has just fallen to a point with me that I would/do not even consider the option of dialing 911, and I must say that IMHO, it has reached a pretty sad state of affairs.

I doubt that will happen this time around (the State's public-relations department has perfected its spin machine and will try to explain how the officer repeatedly bashed her in the head for her own protection, and from viewing the short video clip it looks like she was headed out into traffic).

By the time this is all over, the office could be nominated for Public Safety Officer of the Year -- even after the Department has paid off the woman in return for her silence.

Having been a retired cop with 25 years- I can honestly report these two things. No academy anywhere teaches "punching people" as part of it's arrest techniques. I can also state that academies do not teach the "police dogpile." However, the police dogpile is still the most effective means of subduing combative subjects because at some point you still have to put handcuffs on combative people.

I look at the size of this guy and I think "really?" That's the best you could do? And I feel sorry for the millions of us retired and still working that did our jobs without punching anyone. Shit. You gotta be mentally ill- there's just no other explanation for this.

What did you do to stop your fellow officers when they broke laws and lives.....Blue line eh.

Sat, 07/05/2014 - 19:40 | 4927585 lunaticfringe
lunaticfringe's picture

Training doesn't change that much because the objective is the same. Use the minimal amount of force to effect an arrest. Same as it ever was. 100 years from now, it will be the same.

I can think of one time when a cop dragged a guy out of the car while he was handcuffed and bounced his head off a concrete floor. I let that cop have it and I called him out back. I told him that maybe he should try bouncing my head off the pavement.

I get your point and it does happen. Cops will stand by and they will absolutely not snitch on each other. That same mentality exists virtually everywhere in America from broker desks to dope dealers. I don't know what you do for a living but I will damn sure bet that everytime someone fucks up in front of you you don't go running to the bosses like a snitch. Or do you?

It may not be "everytime". But I will surely do that if I believe that an person and their actions pose a threat and imminent danger to themselves or other people's lives.

 

That is only REASONABLE.

 

I do not consider that "snitching". I consider that PROTECTING OTHERS AND MYSELF FROM HARM, INJURY, OR FATALITY.

 

If you did or do not do that then you are just as bad as today's LEO.

Lunatic,

I have not been entrusted and paid to serve and protect....your comparision to others is weak at best, those professions are not paid to serve and protect anyone....police have been given vast powers and their testimony is gold vs. those they pretend to serve.

Snitch...are you fucking serious....someone fucking up putting widgets together is the same as this situation....

That same mentality exists virtually everywhere in Gangland America ....same as the gangs never snitch...fuck me are you serious?

You should have arrested the cop you claimed to have called out...HE BROKE THE LAW....my guy just failed to perfrom a simple task in your comparision and I should'nt snitch. I would simply advise him of errors and move on....but cops smash lives and its the same???

.... and you expect people to love you guys...........fuck me again... the intelligence of even the older officers is questionable to say the least....you can only recall one time seeing a fellow officer cross the line in 25 years...I CALL BULLSHIT!!! Fucking Liar!

Get a fucking clue, cast off your apologetic stance, stand up and fight back against the police state if you have any backbone left from your 25 years of service, as it seems you spent most of it bent over protecting your brothers in blue.

If there were any good cops....there would be no bad ones.

We don't have the whole thing, so its hard to know. Even the clip on TV is chopped to show the worst part. I generally go with the victim in these, but it looks like she is not listening to the cop to stop, and even after he grabs her she is trying to spin away from him. We see some of the punches, but what else did the victim try to do just before? You can bet that any resistance on her part will not get shown on TV. She could have avoided the whole incident had she not walked into traffic in the first place, or if she stopped when the officer asked her to stop.

never liked the idea of a career police officer.  more like an obligation of the property-owning fathers in the community in their 30s and 40s who are over 180lbs and of a certain mental fitness

but of course ive also heard of muslim barbarians who stone their own family to death....   i guess expecting people to be objective and rational is just too fucking much to ask...

Interesting that the Rodney King era is mentioned in that the King mega-media story blasted America long before the complete video and details were given to Americans. As such, the story belongs to the activists and to the lies they can manufacture from it.

Surely, Zero Hedge can be a more responsible truth provider than this. And to wish “Happy Birthday America” on the strength of a YouTube fragment when possible criminal activity or human safety was involved, makes me wonder what on earth does this have to do with the rest of us?

The singular point is that if this woman so infuriated the California policeman and he lost his temper, he needs to be punished and put on trial. But that has nothing to do with indicting the rest of us. Just showing this part of the video means the patrolmen already is judged, it’s all over, and if there’s any footage prior to that it won’t be exposed.

The activists and anti-white crowd have the floor.

I tell you what let’s do; let’s ask Jesse Jackson what happened here. He doesn’t need to see the video or know what happened prior to the YouTube scenes and/or if this policeman possibly saved the lives of motorists and prevented a 20-car pileup by keeping this woman from running loose on the freeway. But, hey, instead of Jesse Jackson, we have Tyler to tell us.

By the way, Tyler, just how severe is this woman’s condition?

This is not a white/black thing...it can be but there are pleanty of videos that show cops beating citizens of all colors.

Cops are poorly hired and poorly trained. 

For what they get paid cities could hire PhD psychologists with MMA training too.

Instead they use patronage and hire the dumbest, most racist and angry of the low.

Time for big changes.

2 weeks ago we had some nut job and his girl friend kill 2 cops execution style. This was the lunatic fringe but they often snap before the rest of the population. Eventually everyone can snap.

it may be that the police "thug" had just finished a 12 hour sting cleaning up crack houses/gang wars in downtwon LA, who the hell knows. 

what are the facts and context?

spin i see here is interesting, the most interesting is the hiring of ethnic groups to police the activities of other ethnic groups where racism may be involved. whether this is the ethnically based by beaters and victims who are all americans but have different origins (mexican v chilean or pakistani v nigerian or singaporean against german - all are americans); all police behavior regardless of the source of ethnciity should encompass reasonable.  

i can see very little to support the actions of the beater in this case from this short clip. perhaps it will lead to the context of why on earth would it cross the beaters mind that he needed to do this. maybe the victim had just thrown her baby out of a window, maybe the beater did not have a tazer - who the hell knows - a 20 second clip can't give you context or facts.

pretty typical of this twitter society really.

for me, a barefoot woman insisting on walking across a freeway is a clear and present danger to motorists. why he didn't taze the victim of the beating and instead resorted to blows (ok they hardly look like UFC hits to me, but that is all relative as well).

According to USAToday:

CHP Assistant Chief Chris O'Quinn said at a news conference Friday. "We're looking at every possibility, every fact, every circumstance that could have contributed to this situation, and we're going to try to come to a just conclusion.''

Police said the woman, who was walking along the roadside barefoot, was not injured. She was taken to Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center and released the next day, hospital spokeswoman Rosa Sava said.

Propaganda for hate Whitey.

Ethnic replacement of America’s white European race by Third World peoples continues unabated by the regime in Washington, D.C., which now virtually is at war with the American culture.

And how better for America’s white students to be forced to check their evil “privilege” and for the white male to swallow his unearned guilt for past achievements in Western civilization than by those displacing him, using thought-control training at Princeton and Harvard universities.

As such, writes Don Wassall, “Mandatory power and privilege training”—aka the non-existent condition of “white privilege”—will be forced on every student at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University beginning this fall. 

“The communist-like brainwashing program was instituted at the behest of ‘student activists.’

“Given the demographic makeup of Harvard’s student body and the demographic makeup of anti-White activists generally, one can safely assume that the mandatory hate Whitey indoctrination was largely the brainchild of Jews, who would scream ‘anti-Semitism’ if anyone were to suggest that a course explaining ‘Jewish privilege’ would be far more relevant to understanding today’s U.S. ruling class and its perks.”

NLEOMF reports:

Firearms-related incidents accounted for 33 deaths [in 2013], a drop of one-third over 2012 and the lowest since 1887 when 27 officers were shot to death, the NLEOMF reports.

The organization credits the decrease to safety measures installed after 2011 when fatalities soared to 169. These included an increase in the number of agencies requiring officers to wear bullet-resistant vests and the formation of the National Officer Safety and Wellness Group by the U.S. Department of Justice.

The NLEOMF is a private, non-profit organization founded in 1984.

We should not confuse individual law enforcement officers with handpicked agents of U.S. Customs and Border Protection - the largest law enforcement agency in the country - whose agents are tracking U.S. citizens within the government's new 100-miles inland border where Americans are under surveillance by the Department of Homeland Security and other federal police, or with specific police departments that are getting hands-on-training shooting live victims in Israel and/or receiving surplus military equipment through fedgov, such as Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles, other armored vehicles, night vision equipment and 17,000 lb. military trucks.

Many local police who are familiar to communities will not fight on the elites’ side in a revolution but will side with the people and their communities.

Having driven hundreds of thousands of miles on the LA freeways, I can say that CHP is the most dangerous outfit out there. You'll be driving along at 60 or 70, minding your own business, and then you hear WOOOOOOSSSHHH...  It's always a CHP car with no lights and no siren, going 50 mph faster than you. Often at night. If you had changed lanes at that moment, you would be killed instantly. Happened to me countless times.

Not the CHP of the 50s TV show. Roid psychos.

Since America is awash in hate speech charges, it’s time for Tyler to link today’s video on Russia Today (RT) showing Israeli police officers savagely beating a 15-year-old Palestinian-American while he was handcuffed and lying on the floor.

The teen is Tarek Abu Khdeir, cousin of Mohammad Abu Khdeir who was burned alive in East Jerusalem in apparent revenge for the Israeli teen-agers found killed.

The difference here is the action of Israeli police.

The cop does not pay any settlement. YOU DO. They have ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY. That is the reason that the behavior continues.

 

If there were penalties for this type of behavior then the behavior will cease.

 

But your Government passes along the bill to the taxpayer...Y...O...U...YOU.

 

They do not care about it. In fact they ENCOURAGE IT to keep the masses under control. It is not just the cops which are extortionist thugs.
