And what are you basing this on?
One has to ask why won't they release the full video if they have more? I mean, it would only clear up this awful mess right?
I'm looking forward to that.

Steffey has a pending federal lawsuit against Swanson's department, saying she was assaulted by deputies, denied medical help and was the victim of excessive force during her arrest on Oct. 20-21, 2006.
The complaint is pending in U.S. District Court before Judge David D. Dowd Jr.

And where did it say that the video wasn't edited? I didn't see that in the article.

I should have posted last night when I saw this. I don't have the time at the moment to read throught the whole thread, but I have a story to tell here.
Up until about seven months ago I wore a shield to work everyday.
In October, the local P.D. came to my neighborhood to investigate a broken window. I was standing on my front porch when two officers stopped to talk to me. They threatened to arrest me because I had a rum and coke in my hand. So I made a wise crack along the lines of not being afraid of being arrested by their rinky-tink little department. I was insantly slammed face-down on the porch, stomped and kicked in the head by the larger officer, while the little guy hit me with the stun gun more than ten times. Despite several neighbors witnessing the event, I was charged with resisting arrest. One witness actually told me days later that she was amazed that I could actually lay there so still while being beaten and shocked. As concerned citizens, and people I don't even really know, several neighbors tried to lodge formal complaints to no avail.
If anyone thinks these occurences are rare, you are ignorant of the truth. If you think that this will never happen to you, start counting the days.
The police can do anything they want and no one can stop them.

The main point here is "2 men forcibly striping a woman with out her consent", None of us can deny this. If you seen the video then you saw what I saw and what I saw(clearly) were 2 male officers striping a woman naked.
Did you actaulyl watch the video? If you had you would note the presence of 2 female officers in the opening clip. And even the tabliot style narration says female" officers participated.
