A woman in Carlsbad, California is suing police after an officer punched her in the face while arresting her over an alleged seatbelt violation. The New York Daily News reported on a police brutality suit brought by 40-year-old Cindy Hahn, who was arrested and beaten in 2013 as her two children, ages 7 and 11, watched.

Listen again, video says resisting arrest and battery.

What was the crime? All she was charged with was resisting arrest. You can't arrest someone for a seat-belt violation.
There was no arrest before he wanted to arrest her.

Until they or a family member is the victim.
Then it's "oh my god, I can't believe that happened, it just makes no sense..."
There are a few of those cases going around, Kelly Thomas comes to mind.
And his dad was a cop.
I'll bet he's not so blue wall of silence anymore..
Then there was the one where the guy was talking to his dad on the phone when the cops attacked him, on video, controlled by cops, that suddenly gets blurry and veers away...
The list goes on.
You want a dose of reality on what cops really think about anything, spend some time on Thee Rant, if you can stomach it.
Every pig on that site should be investigated if not straight jailed.
