Always suspensions! Why did not the other officers arrest them for assault? Those who walked by should also be held accountable. Those who pushed should be fired. Their above-the-law attitude at upholding the law by violating the law is disgusting.
That was terrible.
If the mayor thinks THIS is “disheartening” I’m terrified to know what level it has to get to before it’s DISGUSTING! Fire them and every single person that walked by that man laying on the ground!!
Suspended? Lolol, what a joke
BPDAlerts are cowards. Be ashamed.
Where are these guys that did this
HE SHOULD BE FIRED!!!NO FUCKING RESPECT FOR HIS ELDERS.
icycola9 Big deal. So he's home cracking a beer and telling all his buds it's all bs? He should be IN JAIL as should the rest who walked on by.
What enough the ones who stepped over him bleeding on the ground? Protect and serve, doesn't look that way....
geoffreylaxton suspended? what, with pay? smh this is not enough!!
Fire him.
HelenCaddes Should be fired immediately and arrested for assault. Was pushing an old man to the ground doing his duty? End of story. BlackLivesMatter The police are the violent rioters!
Fire him. Arrest him. Suspend every cop who weakened by while that man bled out. Fucking unreal, inhumane, unacceptable.
He shouldn’t have provoked the officer by striking him with his phone. Over-reacting? Perhaps, but I’ve seen elderly men stab one another in a fight. Any body can, even an elderly man, seriously injure you at close quarters.
The entire team around him who looked the other way n even ignored the poor dude as he bleeds should be suspended. They beacially ignored their duty a cops n murdered humanity as a human being.
Indianapolis pd groping a protester
Stupid sign of the day.
There will not be a peaceful transition of power, said Michael Cohen in his hearing last year.
Suspended? How about firing him!
He’s a psychopath in uniform.
