Thank god for in car cameras or this woman would never have a case.
Florida Police Officer Slams Woman into Car, Goes to Jail - Yahoo! News

"We have certain expectations of our police officers, and when I looked at the
video, I was disappointed because I felt like that didn't stand up to those expectations," Pensacola Police Chief Chip Simmons told ABCNews.com. "We determined that what we saw on the video was inconsistent with what our policies allow and what state statute allows."
His supervisor is consistent in minimizing the officers actions;
if it were you or I doing the harm, it would rightfuly be termed "assault and battery", but when its a fellow cop it's dismissed as not "up to expectations" and "inconsistent with what our policies allow" (lol).

He probably treats his wife that way.

Welcome to the police state!

Where you have no rights and absolutely, no freedom.
There will be a civil laws suit over this and the tax payers of that municipality will pay very dearly.


Who is really the criminal here.

At least he didn't shoot her dog. Look up dog shootings and police if you are curious to the reference.

He should have zapped her. How many times did he tell her to stay in the car and how many times did she refuse?

^This apologist attitude towards cops (and other government heros) is what has allowed them to become such dangerous bullies.
Since when does passively not responding to a command warrant a beating or electrocution?
Should cops be allowed to mete out justice on the spot?

What the hell is the matter with women like you? The cop told her she had the right to sit in her car, but she was trying to make a phone call.
