Hope the officer will make a full recovery, and maybe some people who like calling Leo’s pigs and going on and on and on about BLM we’ll look at this situation that easily could have been handled permanently with a little excessive force, yet these officers brought him in unharmed.
Thank you for your succinct one sentence comment.
Get off here with that excessive force crap! Nobody deserves that crap! You must be white and racist!
i would not want to mess with this colored. look at those eyes
Dat nigga purple!
He purple cause he got messed up by numerous cops!
I hate violent felons…
Back to prison. Most likely all he knows is criminal activity and addiction.
First off yal dont even know the full story! He was unarmed and cooperating! There was excessive force and he dis not come in unharmed! Before yal make comments you should really get your facts straight!
Hes not even violent! He dont do drugs period! Not even drink!
He spent 20 years in prison for rale and false imprisonment. I’d say that’s violent….
How old was he? See yal dont even know the facts he was 14 years old! He was not charged with rape ever!
I have kids with this man and i watched the whole thing happen along with numerous other random people who witnessed the same thing! The man had his hands up! He has never been violent with me nor anybody since ive known him so for you to come on here and assume something that you know nothing about is dumb and sounds like you racial profiling!
