Two LA cops are under investigation after they were caught on camera repeatedly body-slamming a woman during a traffic stop in Tujunga last Tuesday….then celebrated with a congratulatory fist bump.
These cops pull her over for talking on the cell phone, then for whatever reason, pull this 5’4″ nurse and mother out of her car, repeatedly slam her around and feel great about it.
These cops are common street thugs…and just what the government wants under its wings as they bring in a police state.
This is the 3rd lawsuit filed against LAPD for police brutality just this month.
Two LAPD police officers are under investigation after they were caught on camera repeatedly body-slamming a woman during a routine traffic stop in Tujunga last Tuesday. Surveillance footage of the incident, first obtained by NBC LA, shows that after the officers pushed her into a cop car and then exchanged what seems to be a congratulatory fist bump.
The woman is Michelle Jordan, a 34-year-old mother and registered nurse from Sunland, Calif. She stepped forward Tuesday to speak out about her experience, and has filed a personal complaint against the officers, reports KTLA.
Sources from within LAPD tell the Los Angeles Times that Jordan was pulled over at a Del Taco restaurant because officers saw her talking on a cellphone while driving.
Officials then claim that Jordan defied the officers’ orders to remain in her car and began challenging them, according to the Times. The officers then arrested her, slamming her body to the ground twice.
Jordan’s lawyer, Arthur Corona, called her a “defenseless woman in a sundress” and questioned why officers chose to use such aggressive means against his client, notes ABC7.
Sy Nafiz, another one of Jordan’s attorneys, said to ABC7, “If anyone on the street attacked an innocent woman, they would be in jail. We expect the LAPD officers to be held to the same standard.”
LAPD Chief Charlie Beck released a statement on the disturbing video and the pending investigation of the two police officers, who for now have been placed on non-field duties.
“My initial review of the officers’ statements and the recorded video cause me to have serious concerns about this Use of Force,” Beck said. “We will investigate this thoroughly and hold our officers accountable for their actions.”
The LAPD is inviting anyone with more information about the case to call Foothill Area Watch Commander at (818) 756-8861(818) 756-8861 or Internal Affairs Group at (213) 485-1486(213) 485-1486.
THAT IS SAD. GOD BE WITH THEM ALL.
Oh well,,,,, nothing new here. That’s a shame too coz there a few good cops. They get over shadowed by the jerks like these bully’s
Bastards!! Fire them now!!!
I’m hesitant to say this is what the federal govt. wants for a police state when it is just one location – the LAPD. The LAPD has a reputation for going over the line. All anyone has to do to invoke typical images of how the LAPD operates is state one person’s name: Rodney King.
After the King beating, one would think the LAPD would clean up its act, but apparently it hasn’t ever done such thing. To my recollection, the LAPD has always been a bunch of street thugs and this is not Obama’s doing or any special preparation for a police state.
You have to continue with your other examples TAA to convince me of the imminence or inevitability of a national police state.
THIS IS SICK AND THAT IS WHY THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE MOVING AWAY FROM LA.JUST CHECK THE HOMES FOR SALE. WE HAVE FRIENDS THAT MOVED THIER FAMILY OUT SAID IT WAS NOT SAFE FROM THUGS DRUGS GANGS AND CORRUPT COPS.
I HOPE THEY FRY THEIR ASSES
Why don’t they just Fire these $#%&!@*s and hire new Cops??
FIRE, ARREST, & PROSECUTE. I HOPE She SUE”S THEM!!
THESE VIDEOS DO NOT SHOW EVERY DETAIL. WHAT SHE SAID, DID, ONCE AGAIN WE GET HALF THE TRUTH !!!! V
The only thing that would have even come close to justifying that type of force used is if she pulled a gun, no where did I read there was one involved. Regardless of what she said or didn’t say.. its just words, those cops should have shown some restraint.
Remember: you can’t mention Jesus or god in the classroom anymore. God is outlawed in America. Yet, it is written in the hearts of mankind by God that this behavior is wrong!
