Police officers in Jacksonville, Florida arrived at the home of a 44-year-old deaf man after a reported domestic disturbance. Despite knowing the man was deaf, officers immediately began shouting orders, which they knew could not be heard – or easily followed. Within seconds, they slammed the man onto the ground and continued shouting un-heard orders, as the man cried out that he had done nothing wrong. Afterwards, the officers mocked the deaf man, telling him that he should have “just listened.”

Deputy Stefan Ortiz with the Volusia County (Florida) Sheriff’s Office stopped an older man for an alleged faulty tag light. Within minutes he literally drug the man out of his car and arrested him, telling another officer that the man was attempting to play a “constitutional rights game” with him. This video raises common issues that occur across the country, where police officers disregard basic constitutional rights, and the entire criminal justice system seems to allow it….

UPDATE to yesterday’s video about the incident in Huntington, West Virginia, where two women were threatened and forced to stop recording the arrest of a homeless man. As it turns out, the arrest was captured by a county surveillance camera, which shows the man’s head being slammed into the police cruiser by a Cabell County Sheriff’s Office deputy, as the actual elected sheriff (Doug Adams) casually observes from a few feet away. It also shows the Chief Deputy, Chuck Zerkle, grabbing a woman who witnessed the head slam attempting to record what was happening from a public sidewalk, as was more fully discussed in yesterday’s video. But, the video has apparently been altered…

Melvindale, Michigan police officer Matthew Furman was previously featured in two of my videos – both showing him escalating a minor traffic stop into violent uses of force. In both videos I asked, why is Furman still employed when he has been previously charged, suspended, fired, and then re-hired? He has now been criminally charged for both incidents I previously covered. But his lawyer quickly responded with a bold prediction…

Matthew Edwards, a hard working welder, had just worked a 14 hour shift and was waiting to turn into his neighborhood in Troy, New York. A marked police car was waiting at a red light in front of him at the intersection where he was waiting to make a left turn onto the street where he lives. But when the light turned green, the police car didn’t move. After waiting a few moments, Matthew briefly honked his horn to alert the distracted police officer that the light had turned green. Within 5 minutes, Matthew would be violently arrested by that officer, Taylor Ganache with the Troy Police Department.

In Clarksburg, West Virginia, a woman called police for a welfare check after seeing a man in apparent distress on the sidewalk. Shortly afterwards numerous police officers surrounded the man, and decided to detain him. When the man didn’t want to be handcuffed, officers “assisted him to the ground.” Then Officer Elijah Helsley of the Clarksburg Police Department repeatedly punched the man in the face, among other things. The woman who had previously called police was shocked at what she was witnessing, and began filming with her phone. She shared the video on Facebook, after which it ended up on the local news, as well as the subject of a song.

Officer Rob Magnifico, formerly the chief of the Ellwood City (PA) Police Department, was demoted in June after he slammed a kid on the ground at a Sheetz gas station for using the “F” word while demanding his cell phone be returned, which he had previously accidentally left at the gas station. Apparently Magnifico recently resigned – but unfortunately, not from Ellwood City. Instead, he is challenging his prior discipline, and may actually be making more money, while exercising essentially the same authority as before his demotion.
