The Public Prosecutors Office stressed that people should not form opinions about the incident solely based on the footage circulating online, since the full circumstances surrounding the incident have not been established.

Mmm. Mmm yes. OR - fuck that. The officer is suspended without pay during the investigation. Criminal assault charges are filed.

Yeah, lmao to that. What context are we missing? The woman didn't even obstruct the entering of the van that hard, just turned around stalling a bit and at worst said maybe something mean about the maternal heritage of the police officer.

This is very interesting, because this is a male cop behaving completely unhinged in front of two female cops while assaulting a female.

If the PPO asks me to not just judge the punching of a presumed innocent citizen, that’s some of the circumstances I focus on.

The arestee no doubt said something inflammatory to get the dude to snap, but if he was properly trained and professional that wouldn’t have happened.

He should he suspended immediately and have reevaluated whether he’s fit for duty.
