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.
Timothy Holland, keep seeing the LA police Dept will not eventually get them bankrupt. These folks are paid millions by the taxpayers. They need to start giving time to these kind of thugs, they go into this job field to feel authority over ppl. They feel they can treat ppl anyway they want. Grand jury are responsible for indicting these folks but 99.9% they refuse to indict and they’re let back into their job with a slap on the hand. If they kill a civilian they go on paid vacation , I call it that but they call it administrative leave. They’re on temporary leave at taxpayers expense until cleared to return to work. Every dept in the US does this method.
Definetly thugs & need to be behind bars!!!
It’s a shame. What did she do to deserve this kind of treatment. Don’t make it personal unless she spit in the face. Are they on the too much stress? Are their wives making them feel less then the head of their home? Do they have post traumatic stress syndrome?
ARE COPS REALLY THAT STUPID IN LA.
body cams for all cops
Why are the police trying to be “ABOVE” the law ???
Justice , it’s time for justice , this woman did nothing to deserve this , the only justification for this at all would have been had she been drinking and killed a child or anyone , but she didn’t hurt anyone , so these cops need to be fired and charged , criminals they are , that makes them no different then a common thug that abuses women , FIRE THEM , CHARGE THEM NOW .
Wow, again. Another video of Nazi cop’s working very hard. Bunch of dumb ass
more evidence of the police state we live in
