As a teacher in an inner-city school, I keep finding it harder and harder to convince my students that cops are the good guys and deserve respect. My theory is that a lot of (not all) cops turn into shitty people because they find themselves around shitty people every day.
She'll be alright, and probably get a nice paycheck out of the deal. The great thing is that there are so many cameras out there, that it's tough for bad cops to get away with bullying people. It's nice to live in a day and age where the cops are held accountable.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police have launched an internal investigation after a video was posted online that shows an officer striking a woman twice in the face at a neighborhood party associated with Philadelphia's annual Puerto Rican Day parade. The 36-second video uploaded to YouTube and titled "Philadelphia Police Brutality" shows the woman crumpling to the ground after being struck Sunday in north Philadelphia. The woman appears to be bleeding from the mouth as she is led away in handcuffs.
Moments before the woman was hit, the video shows someone else throwing a liquid toward the officers. The woman was also seen spraying something from a can.
The woman, whose name was not released, was cited for disorderly conduct, said Officer Tanya Little, a police spokeswoman.
The officer in the video, identified as highway patrol supervisor Lt. Jonathan Josey, is eager to tell his side of the story to internal investigators because there is more to what happened than the video shows, said John McNesby, president of the Fraternal Order of Police.
"We're hoping that it's neither a whitewash nor a witch hunt," McNesby said at a news conference Monday. "At the end of the day, his actions will be questioned, but I believe they can be defended."
The daylong neighborhood party is largely attended by a different group from those who are at an earlier downtown parade, he said.
"There's a lot of tensions that are running high; there's a lot of arrests that are made," McNesby said. "Each year people are arrested, and things aren't pretty."
