Officer Suspended After Video Shows Woman Who Called Police Put In A Headlock

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/miami-dade-officer-relieved-duty_n_5c8a5198e4b0450ddae7d951

A South Florida police officer has been relieved of duty after a video surfaced showing a woman being placed in a headlock and thrown to the ground after she called police about being assaulted with a firearm.

The video posted to social media captures the Miami-Dade officer saying that the woman, identified as Dyma Loving, 26, “needs to be corrected,” apparently for how she was dealing with the officers. She’s then seen forcefully taken down onto the sidewalk, handcuffed, taken into custody and arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting an officer, according to a police report.

Loving told HuffPost in a telephone interview Thursday that following the Miami incident, she won’t be able to “see police officers the same.”

“None of them,” she added. “Because I literally called [them] for help with my life and that’s how [they] treated me. ... [They] beat me up.”

She calls police

Police come and arrest her

Just another day in looney Rump world. Calling police while black is a crime now.

Giraldo, identified by the department as a field training officer, has been relieved of duty and the incident is being investigated, Perez said.

So I guess they are OK with this type of training.
