January 2009 an incident occurred in my home town of Richwood West Virginia. My friend a 16 year old female, got beat up by the Richwood city police.
The 16 year old was out one night partying with some friends when she decided she was to drunk to stay any longer, so she headed home to her moms apartment. Half way to her home, the sixteen year old met up with who she never wanted to meet up with the Richwood police department. Two officers were on duty that night and just happened to be riding in the same police cruiser.
When the police officers realized that the girl was intoxicated, they immediately pulled over and attemped to arrest the young female. Resisting arrest the female tryed to run,the police grabbed her and restrained her. In the process, she said a few choice words that angered the police officer. One of the police officers then started tazing the girl untill he could get the handcuffs on. The cop then repeatedly kicked the girl while she was down.
The female is now in a local rehab and the police officer is still working as a Richwood Police officer.
All I can say is I hope this girl is doing better and goes on to lead a happy and healthy life.
