US cop accused of excessive force

US cop 'ACCUSED' of excessive force.
Id say he tried doing a runner but c'mon .........

[PBF]

What are the chances of the cop paying for damages to the bike?

[contempo]

bloody hell... thats nuts. I'd be fuckin raging if a cop did that, scratch my bike as if...

[Stoneville]

Don't know what happened prior to that, but it didn't look like he was going to move from were he was, shitty cop looked like he was even dishing out a few kidney punches as well grrr.

[out_in_front]

Thats some pretty impressive elevation from that fatty...

But completely unwarranted from what I can see.

[mekon]

Give it a decade and all your local WAPOL officers will be doing the same thinking they're Starsky and Hutch.

[Tic]

Completely not needed. But there has to be abit of backstory.
He might be known for carrying a weapon or assaulting police. And they werent going to take any chances.
But if it was just because he didnt stop for the police for a traffic voilation then thats complete BS and he deserves more than whatever punishment theyll give him.

[Desmo]

But he did stop.

Ive since found this in relation to the video:

The parents of a 26-year-old Royse City man who allegedly led Rockwall County deputies on a seven-mile chase say it wasn't necessary to tackle him off his motorcycle before his arrest.

Deputies spotted Guess speeding on Interstate 30 near Rockwall on Sept. 16 and pursued him for seven miles.

Dashboard-camera video show Guess speeding and weaving in and out of traffic and even driving on the More.. shoulder until he slows down and stops.

A patrol car can be seen pulling directly in front Guess' motorcycle. From the rear, a deputy goes airborne and knocks Guess off his bike. The officer's feet can be seen leaving the ground as he wrestles Guess down a sloped embankment, and another deputy joins him in placing Guess in handcuffs.

Guess' father, Terry, said the tackle was excessive force. He said his son had stopped and could have been given a verbal command -- even at gunpoint -- but the deputy instead chose to leap.

Terry Guess said he son was hit several times by "rabbit punches" to the kidney area that injured him.

Guess said he doesn't make any excuses for his son's behavior. He said his son is bipolar, which sometimes leads him to making bad choices.

A Rockwall County Sheriff's Department spokesperson declined to comment on specifics of the case except to say that the chase and arrest were reviewed according to policy and that the deputies did not violate county policy for chasing a suspect or for use of force.

Austin Guess three previous arrests for speeding, driving without a license and insurance and a previous arrest for attempting to evade police.

Guess remains in jailed and has a hearing next week. He is contemplating a lawsuit.

Epic quote hahaha

[thumper humper]

They have lowered the educational standards required to be a cop in many country areas of the US.
Almost any knuckle head who can pass the physical can be a cop in some towns

not really any different to WAPOL except they lowered the physical requirements at the same time.

[Bendito]

Damn it, soooo close to copping a handlebar in his fat, spineless back

[Mattpack]

I dont condone doing a runner but there should be 3 simple rules if you are going to:
1- Have a reliable bike (they keep catching up)
2- wear a helmet (saves on injuries whilst getting a beating)
3 Be sober (improves riding skills)

This guy breaks all three...... (and yes the cops were charged with assault)

[Desmo]

The thing most people don't realise is you should never run, but evade.

[g0zer]

lol

looked like he was trying out his new move inspired by too much UFC/WWF but didnt plan on the them both rolling down the embankment

I am the law. You can't beat the law.
