A man filed a federal lawsuit Monday alleging he was paralyzed and needed his legs amputated after police officers in St. Petersburg, Florida, put him in restraints, placed him in the back of a police van without a seatbelt and then drove in a reckless manner.
Cuffed in the back of a van with no seatbelts. You can get a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt in your car.
It is also not in their job description to disperse “justice”, or do anything but apprehend suspects and then allow the Justice System we have in place to deal with that. The second they step outside of that description they should be treated like any other citizen who took vigilante justice into their own hands, being charged and tried as such.
If I remember, Gray didn’t even commit a crime. They arrested him for something the officers didn’t realize was legal in their state, and he wasn’t even doing it any way.
