Tasered and pepper sprayed in his bedroom by Arizona police, Kyle Cardenas, a US Army combat veteran with the 82nd Airborne Division, who served two tours of duty in Iraq and was honorably discharged in 2006, suffers from “intense signs of PTSD”. He has filed a notice of claim against the Gilbert Police department for using excessive force.
The VA crisis hotline was called by Kyle’s family on his behalf, seeking a crisis team to come to their home. They specifically asked that the police not be called, unfortunately the VA ignored the request.
Police arrived at the house and Kyle tried to have his dog attack them, while also slamming the door in their face. The police told him that he was being detained.
Things went from bad to hell very quickly. View the video and the list of abuses that Kyle endured at the hands of the police on the next page.
You people are ridiculous. Look at the statement. Whether he knew what was going on or not, he still inside his dogs to attack the police and then himself tried to attack them and so they had to take the appropriate measures to protect themselves. If anybody should be playing in this assault it should be the parents of this veteran. Plain and simple. Open your fucking eyes.
Everyone is on their own , but you don’t want to believe that . Sorry that you’re going to amoung the first .
this$#%&!@*needs to stop the police and the gov work for us we are there boss the are not ours
No matter what he didnt deserve to be beaten like that . no reason at all. I hope the Hell those Cops will be put in prison for life.
NO EXCUSE FOR THIS KIND OF CONDUCT.
The police are not trained to deal with this!!!!!!!!!!!
Jail time, there will be justice behind the walls….
I am sorry for his PTSD. However, that does not give him the right to hurt cops… I am so amazed that veterans of WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam, came home to much worse greetings and went ahead and succeeded.
I believe the biggest issue putting aside the abusive treatment is that this is an excellent example of how inadequately and uncaring our VA dept has gotten! This would never happened had they been willing to do their job for our Veterans!
F**k these$#%&!@*pigs!!!!
