It looks like they have no physic control during application for working in police..The advantages looks like: beat everybody, be violent,use weapons in all occasions..what did old men to deserve this? Walking with the baby?! Is that a crime?

We need body cameras that operate 24-7 on these guys all the livelong day.
They find it reduces violence something like 80%.

If a few guys are made an example of, it may cause a shift in attitude of the entire force.

Being an incurable psychopath must be a primary requirement for becoming a (US) cop...

Wow, that is crazy. Were they only fired ?

It was one policeman.
Charges have been filed against him

Recent entry on youtube

"The guy who hit the officer got 20 years.

The cops who beat the unconscious suspect were fired -- then hired back with full back pay and benefits 2 years later.

That's justice in America today."


Obama should stop homegrown terrorism like that, before hitting ISIS

Well, cops breaking a Grandfather's spine? Why not? Shooting children or tasering old women gets boring after awhile.

The officer is responsible for this man. I hope he gets fine but after getting paralyzed, nothing much can help. Can't imagine that for just taking a walk, the police can be so cruel and the man was punished for nothing.

The officer should be punished severely. But at the same time, Sureshbhai Patel's son should also be charged, for not accompanying his father who is not proficient in English. 

Chirag Patel wanted a cheap nanny, and therefore asked his father to come to the US. He should have at least accompanied him around.

His father was taking a walk around the neighbourhood. Chirag would have considered the neighbourhood to be safe.
We now know that it wasn't.

It isn't, it is (fittingly) in the 'Politics & Society' section.

The governor of the US state of Alabama has apologised to the Indian government for the treatment of an Indian man left partially paralysed after being thrown to the ground by a policeman.

Robert Bentley said the policemen used "excessive force" on Sureshbhai Patel, 57, earlier this month.

The officer involved was charged with the assault but has pleaded not guilty.

One man, Denny Patel - no relation - said Parker has shown impatience and mild aggression toward people in Patel's Madison businesses, including employees.

"It's not this one incident. It's lots of them," he said.

Its hard to know the truth, without being involved throughout.

It doesn't matter if he has shown impatience earlier.
He should be made to pay for this incident.

This, and other things like this, are reasons why I am regularly suggesting learning the things that Karl Lentz is teaching. Why? Because Karl shows us, among many other things, how to properly litigate the man who wears the badge, uniform and gun, rather than his office as law enforcement officer. Such proper litigating scares law enforcement, because it attacks their bond. If the bond is attacked successfully, both the man (cop) loses his job or worse, and the bond pays out to those who have been harmed by law enforcement.

I'm sure there'll be a civil suit filed at minimum. If the cops don't wrap the thin blue line around this officer, then he might be held criminally liable. I doubt that'll happen tho. Most likely is the family will get a settlement which the taxpayers have to foot the bill for. Ideally, the officer's pension should be at stake here because of his behavior.

Ideally, he will spend some time with a few of the people he locked up.
