Cop Beats Grandpa Sleeping in Car — ACQUITTED

Remember the case where the 62 year old grandpa, Kevin Hinton, was driving with his pet cockatoo on a road trip to meet his new baby granddaughter… and he gets tired, pulls into a public park in Spokane, Washington, and tries to take a nap? But then Spokane, Washington police officer, Clay Hilton, shows up and starts to harass him, ultimately beating him to the point that he would have 8 broken ribs, a punctured lung, a severe concussion, a shoulder injury, and a disfigured lip? I originally made a video about that one all the way back in October of 2023. Then I made an update video on it in December of 2025 after Clay Hilton got fired and indicted. The criminal charges against Hilton just recently went to a jury trial and it’s probably not what you were expecting. He was acquitted. But it’s not over yet.

UPDATE: Cop Who Beat Grandpa Napping With Pet Cockatoo INDICTED

Over two years ago I showed you a video about a 62 year old grandfather named Kevin Hinton. He was driving late one night on a road trip, returning from meeting his brand-new baby granddaughter in Oregon. He was too tired to continue driving. He couldn’t keep his eyes open. So he pulled over in a public parking lot in Spokane, Washington to take a nap. He was awakened by the arrival of Sgt. Clay Hilton with the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office. Three minutes later, he would have 8 broken ribs, a punctured lung, a severe concussion, a shoulder injury, and a disfigured lip. Why? Because Sgt. Hilton thought this 62 year old grandfather was rude to him. Now, over 2 years later, there’s a huge update on my original video. Sgt. Hilton has been fired, and is now facing federal criminal charges.
