Guys this isn't hard. You don't body slam frail old men on the concrete because they disrespected you. Period. Leastwise when you're sworn to protect and serve the public.

And for those trying to argue the old man assaulted the cop, you belong in a circus. That is the most pitiful self defense plea I've ever heard and it would not fly in any court anywhere in the country (which is why the AG is trying to prevent it from going to trial because he knows the prosecution would destroy that defense and the jury would feel that their intelligence had been personally insulted by the defense for having the audacity to try it in the first place).

Yep. In what world would a frail, elderly man tapping you on the chest so you send him to the ICU with a broken neck, broken eye socket and brain bleed NOT result in criminal charges?

What exactly makes a police officer so damned special, they can commit grave bodily harm with impunity? The people in this thread defending this officer act like there is no law in Oklahoma against excessive use of force by a LEO. There is:

2023 Oklahoma Statutes :: Title 22. Criminal Procedure :: §22-34.1. Excessive force by peace officers - Definition.

Justia Free Databases of US Laws, Codes & Statutes

law.justia.com

I don’t see any of them defending this law as vociferously as they’re defending the LEO’s right to use force on anyone who so much as touches them. Why is this law bad but that law good?

In ANY other scenario, responding to a simple battery with ZERO effect, with aggravated assault and battery that results in life-threatening injury to a vulnerable person by a strong person, you’d be arrested and prosecuted.

Someone touching a LEO is not an excuse to go apeshit gorilla on an old man. I’m disappointed and disgusted by the people defending this officer.

Why did the other lady get one then? Feeling generous???

She did something illegal, that’s how tickets work.

So ok to act like an add clown during a police investigation?

Both were wrong, but this generated from the old man acting like a whiney 4 year old.


I’m out. Be safe everyone and don’t act like this stupid m/fer did.

But the law says...

This cops gonna fry in SO many ways.
You heard it earlier here and I'm backing it.
I don't give 2 schits what the old decrepit man did, he was, and I quote another post, "as threatening as leaves blowing by".
Anyone who thinks otherwise (Leo's here) are not any friend of mine.
And I truly support Law enforcement *not the jackpot *****) and the men who carry out that job.
I don't want that job and I'm not fit for it. This cop isn't either, for the same reason as me.

This thread tells SO much about many here.
LMFAO.
