“Don’t make a wrong move,” the officer said as he pinned the struggling subject to the ground. “Period.”
The officer tightened the handcuffs around the subject’s thin wrists.
“Ow, ow, ow, it really hurts,” the subject exclaimed.
The officer pressed his weight into the subject’s small body while school staff watched it all unfold. The person he was restraining was 7 years old.
The officer’s excuse is that he only had the training he had to rely on. Putting his knee into the 7 year old’s back and trying to scare the shit out of him saying that he’s going to get familiar with the juvenile system, etc. etc. Being an overall piece of absolute shit and he’s just essentially cowardly blaming his training.
If you need training on how not to be human garbage to a 7 year old then you surely shouldn’t be an officer. That officer needs some serious psychological help.
What gets me is that spitting on someone is not a criminal violation in most states as far as I know. The supreme court has long held that a police officer’s only responsibility is to enforce the law, not protect or serve. In this case, there was no legal infraction so he should have just sat there eating his donuts and arresting active shooters after they finish.

Nothing settles a child like ratcheting up anxiety with every tool at your disposal.
Also, can we take a minute to appreciate a police officer threatening a 7-year-old with the implication of sexual assault? Nothing more American than raping a child.
