Police Beat Town Councilman Then Arrest Him For Assault


www.prisonplanet.com
Roseland town council member David Snyder is calling for the resignation of a town marshal after a fight at Friday night's meeting.

Snyder says while he was being arrested, he became a victim of police brutality.

He was released from jail Saturday afternoon, when a felony charge of battery of a police officer was dropped.

The St. Joseph County prosecutor's office reviewed the police reports Saturday morning, dropped that charge but left two misdemeanor charges. That meant he could bond out of jail. Now he’s recovering at home.

You can watch the video on the wndu link by pressing "EXTENDED VIDEO: The moments leading up to David Snyder's arrest." I want to see someone try and defend the Police action in this one.

There's a poll on the local site asking: "Do you think the police went too far with their use of force in David Snyder's arrest?"



36% of the people said NO.

What? How does a man get beat up, a felony charge, and two misdemeanors for doing absolutely nothing. How does this happen?
