Thanks for your comments. Bumping this story to the top.

IMHO, on the one hand, this type of force seems unwarranted, especially because the person in custody was handcuffed. On the other hand, it’s difficult to tell exactly how well-placed that kick was.

In comparison to other surveillance videos, though, such as the one in the Sandra Bland case, this one looks particularly brutal.

The assault by the alleged officer begins before the “kick.”

On the other hand, it’s difficult to tell exactly how well-placed that kick was.

The person in custody was seated and restrained, and that kick was not presenting a safety to the officer. It's possible that, had the blow landed without the slightest deviation from the maximum testicular point of impact, that there could have been a hematomic result.

But it didn't. The officer did not react in pain. He did, however, react in explosive and violent rage against a young woman who was restrained and under his official protection.

Disgusting, ugly, and grossly unbecoming criminal assault by an officer in uniform.

But at least he didn't shove her down the hall, tell her to start running, and then shoot her several times in the back (and drop a taser next to the twitching carcass after). So maybe I'm a bit overconcerned.

These cops are dangerous. Cops need to be peace officers not paramilitary occupiers of a foreign country. The way they behave wouldn’t be tolerated under the military rules engagement. Not only should the thug cop be fired, but also the two idiots who came out of the woodwork and then scrambled away so they could say they didn’t see anything. This is the lowest - beating up a handcuffed high school girl. Love to see hon the punk would handle himself against a real man without that badge and gun.

What happened to this sob? Probably nothing.
