Video doesn’t show the body slam. Rarely are body slams needed. It seems that too many cops have been watching pro-wrestling.
You can find it on YouTube. Dude was just walking to work in the morning and the cop body slammed him within 60 seconds of encountering the confused gentleman. They had the wrong guy but still charged him with a crime anyway simply for asking why he was being stopped and manhandled.
I’ll have to go watch it. I’m not one to say a body slam is never necessary as we can’t predict every scenario but I am one to say it’s used more than it should be. A simple take Down should rarely lead to a serious injury. Yet we are seeing people fucked up all the time.
