It isn't my story, but at the link you can see the officer's report and he says they moved the girl from room to room - first to the bathroom to try to get her in the shower and then when she didn't cooperate to the living room where he tried to put handcuffs on her.
After she was tasered she couldn't move at all and he carried her to the car.
I know there are restrictions on what cops can and cannot do, but I've also seen fully grown men taken down and cuffed by an officer, legally.
I know you're defending the individual officer's actions and I can understand where you're coming from.
Yup, but officers often have problems doing that alone, even when the grown man isn't in the grip of some psych problem. And again, moving someone isn't the same as restraining them.
Whats so hard about locking her in the room, and taking her ipod (assuming she has one away) and switching off the breaker. Sit in the dark long enough screaming and flipping out and when it doesn't get her any where she'll come down off the adrenaline high, or crash.
Jesus Christ people there is an alternative option to just kicking the kids ass or using a damn tazer. Though these options are far more entertaining
While common sense may suggest that, I'm sure any officer locking up kids in their room on duty will be in a heap of trouble.
Exactly, he would be allowing her to potentially harm herself. Big no-no, also big cause for civil lawsuit running into the millions.
This problem should have been solved by the mother years before the police were called in. I don't see where the police officer did anything wrong, honestly. Not in our society with the regulations and restrictions placed upon him. I think he made the best choice out of a menu of bad ones - which were the only ones available.
