Dan Esquivel Cops don't get to arrest people simply because they don't like the person's attitude. Especially when the cop is the one escalating the situation.
Seriously The neighbor chokes a kid,, and the cop ask the lady why her son littered ? Is the cop investigating the crime he was called out for- choking of a kid? Or did he find something a little easier to figure out-- littering ?
The Chief responded that the cop was rude not racist. How can anyone hear that a CHILD has been assaulted and be so indifferent? That cop needs to resign. His stance and his words said it all.
FOX 4 why did you cut away so fast when the officer asked "why not?" in response to that woman saying the guy didn't have a right to put his hands on her son? That is what set off that entire situation. That officer had the nerve to ask that woman why that white guy didn't have the right to assault her 7 year old. Do none of you at Fox 4 see that as a problem?
What this, so called, expert doesn't understand is that you cannot teach a racist cop to be "professional" when he's confronting minority citizens. You can see by his posture that he gave, absolutely, no value or consideration to what the woman was saying. He was going to arrest her, no matter what. He just waited for the slightest justification. Of course she was going to "resist" arrest. There was no lawful reason for him to arrest her; regardless of all the yelling. He should have arrested the man who choked her kid, for assaulting a minor.
Whoa wait a second, the dispute is not over littering. The complain and reason for the call is possible assault of a minor / child abuse; littering is secondary.
Now is it just me or is every time we hear something about a police officer putting their hands on a citizen there's no real disciplinary action held against that officer if we put our hands on them we go to jail if they put their hands on us in an abusive and misbehavior dwai they don't go to jail
this has to stop! how could the man who put his hands on a minor not be arrested? the police take parents to jail for physically disciplining their own children but allow this man to choke her child and then have the nerve to question her about her parenting? she had every right to be upset especially when telling the man it doesn't matter if the child littered or not he has no right to touch her child and he says why not which admits he put his hands on the child in front of the cop.
2:42 There it is, in a nutshell. The woman has just voiced (to the neighbor) her complaint, "Why'd you put your hands on my son?" The COP interjects, "Why'nt you teach your son not to litter?" The (white) COP firmly believes the (white) neighbor who accused the (black) 7 yr old of littering, and saw no problem at all with the (white) neighbor assaulting the (black) boy, but saw great problems with the (black) mother failing to _teach her (black) children right from wrong._
Dumb cop. A typical bully with a badge who doesn't deserve to wear it. The officer didn't care about the facts of the case and should be suspended without pay. The white assaulted was not dealt with appropriately but the Lady was singled out for the cops black wrath. I pray he travels out of state and receives the same application of poor judgment he possesses.
The Officer has just been informed a man in the neighborhood has assaulted a young 7 year old boy. He has done this because it appears the reasoning behind this is. That the boy supposedly throw a piece of paper down on the ground and did not pick it up when told to do so. Why is the Officer not immediately trying to find this man, which was reported by a witness to the choking of a 7 year old child? Instead this Officer diverts the conversation to why had the parent not taught the child to not throw trash on the ground. I find this Officers response to hearing about a adult man choking a 7 year old child totally out of character. It is as if the Officer believes the child deserved to be assaulted by this adult man. "Totally Unbelievable" Then to do what he did next is absolutely incredible. Clearly this Officer has absolutely no concern to if the child was hurt in the incident or was the child still being attacked by the adult man? This action from this Officer is irreprehensible.
He could have gone next door and told his Mom he littered, but he decided to choke a 7 yr old instead. The cop is clearly a racist and incompetent. He better lose his job.
Can you imagine the cost of police investigating what had been a minor incident UNTIL the cop aggravated the entire original situation? Cop. Was so judgements!
It's crazy that off these tyrants are trained to defuse these situations but there always the ones that take it from 0 to your all going to jail for nothing in two second its honestly scary and I'm Canadian
So traffic warrants make a person a fugitive?? 😂😂 that's some violent fugitive there, protecting her son. He's a child for heavens sake. He's going to do things wrong but it doesn't give anyone the right to put hands on that child. I'd have done the same thing about my son being assaulted over a minute issue that could have been taken to the mother or officers if need be but you don't put hands on a child. Period.
Cop handled this all wrong!! Video seems to be missing footage, from what it looks like. As if it cuts off certain sections and jumps to others.. Nonetheless, this officer's body language, quick to put hands on girl, clearly says it was handled very poorly ..
No adult should have the right to choke a child. Like the little boy's mother asked "Why didn't the neighbor go to his mother? " That man didn't give that woman a chance! And we all know Why.
This is Crazy and Im so Sick and Tired of them getting away with this!!!!! Lord step in and handle this situation from the police chief down to the mayor..
The officer should be fired!!! His fundamental duty is to safeguard lives and property and to protect the innocent! He did neither, he is a coward in a uniform with a badge that protects him !!!! He is an embarrassment to the The badge and his department
Why did the cop do nothing to the white guy who choke the boy?, ooh because the cop didn't care about the black little boy ",I'm just going by what I seen in the video!....
Why do we allow law enforcement to investigate themselves in instances like this. I don't mind them doing so, as long as it does not interfere with any charges the officer will face.
Someone explain to me how is it okay for someone else to do whatever they feel to someones child. But The Parents will get hauled off to jail get a cps case and be dragged through the dirt as if traffic tickets are something like chomo or murder, really. Stop her traffic tickets are not what's an excuse for her being treated like this. Because of all this the Neighbor with his smug self should be fined and have to pay her for putting his hands on Someone else's child.
The COP, Officer William Martin, received a 10 day suspension, *_without pay._* He appealed the suspension, and the appeal was rejected. Charges against the mother and two daughters were dropped, and they sued the COP and Department. They lost the suit in State court, and last I saw had not yet filed suit in Federal court.
The only good news here is that they retained a lawyer and hopefully will not get scared into a plea deal(which may be used against them in a civil case). That cop was inciting trouble for sure(at the least[this act by the cop is going to cause more than just trouble in the long run and could have caused serious physical (psychological harm is surely an issue and time will tell of this harm to these folks or others during the event]))harm.
I DO NOT CARE IF SHE HAD OUTSTANDING TRAFFIC TICKETS. YOU GUYS ALLWWAAYYS DO THAT MESS. Talk to me about WHY THIS COP ALLLLL BUT EXCUSED THIS GROWN ASS MAN PUTTING HIS HANDS ON A SEVEN YEAR OLD.
A officer should not put there hands on any seven year old, unless he is taking the child to there guardian. The individual who complain about the littering on there property, could have spoken to the kid family. Apparently the caller has never been seven.
I keep saying...... A large number of police officers have anger/stress issues or even PTSD... I wouldn't say many police officers are racists...but I will definitely say they have problems mentally..and don't know how to deal with it, because no police department will acknowledge that thrir own officers have mental issues on thr job.

I will dedicate myself to the protection of life, property, and our public trust.

what do you think the mom there at the end I had such so clearly written out speech and you really think that's like what she really thinks why was she censored
Why is this man not been arrested for the assault on the young child. If the original Officer refused to do the arrest then why hasn't another Officer been assigned to make the arrest. Why has this not happened already.
Cop's like these makes people dislike are hate them, these are the ones that beat their wives and cursed their mothers, hopefully women see this video, so they can run when they see this robot coming,
That officer didnt maintain control of the situation. He's standing there like he's a mediator, like he doesnt have control but they do, like he's just waiting for something to happen so he can break it up and then that's what he does. He waits for one side to move to make a reactive decision. Neither side should've even spoke to each other in his presence because he should've been the one speaking. They should've been speaking to him and addressing their concerns like a counselor is how he stood there but then he has the authority of an officer. Always remember in the presence of an officer, you have the right and the advantage to remain silent.
Why can't the officials understand that as a police officer, there should be no good or bad cop, being good or bad should not be an option! Being a good law abiding citizen should be a requirement of ALL police officers! Damn.
unfortunately this happened, but don't call the police if you have outstanding warrants. Let somebody else call and stay away. That is most used weapon of police, they hope you have warrants so they can arrest you. I once asked aske a policeman what a good day was, I asked ten arrests or twenty and he said a good day is about 2 arrests or 10 traffic violations. I told him I thought a good day would be where nobody broke the law.
It's alarming that she was arrested! I'm not a BLM supporter, think they are a terrorist group. BUT things like this are completely UNACCEPTABLE! The officer was called there because a 7 year old boy was choked by a neighbor. Even IF the boy had littered the proper response by the neighbor should have been to call the police, NOT CHOKE THE BOY! If he wasn't prepared to arrest the neighbor he should have at least given him a warning. As for the MOTHER protecting her little boy, he should have treated her with respect. Instead in front of her CHILDREN (and the neighbor) he throws her to the ground handcuffs and arrests her!!! And tazes a daughter. And hauls 3 of them off to jail. COMPLETE FAIL.
Are you for real. A warning for a grown man choking a 7 year old boy. If the 7 year old boy was white should the grown man been giving a warning for choking a white 7 year old?
I live in Detroit and there are nothing but people like this, no matter how wrong their kids r they blame everyone else but themselves, my neighbor got shot stealing another neighbors car, and eventually the thief's family busted out the windows of the car owners house, WTF
Why do they need witnesses if they have video evidence?
Shouldn't the grown man who put his hands on a 7 year old be the one getting arrested?!???
Why the cop did not put the guy on handcuffs
Your asking why the police officer didn't arrest the one calm person there.
Dan Esquivel Cops don't get to arrest people simply because they don't like the person's attitude. Especially when the cop is the one escalating the situation.
YOU CAN NOT REASON WITH A DEVIL
Seriously The neighbor chokes a kid,, and the cop ask the lady why her son littered ? Is the cop investigating the crime he was called out for- choking of a kid? Or did he find something a little easier to figure out-- littering ?
The Chief responded that the cop was rude not racist. How can anyone hear that a CHILD has been assaulted and be so indifferent? That cop needs to resign. His stance and his words said it all.

He should have arrested the man who choked her kid, for assaulting a minor.
Kinda removes the notion of waving the "transparency" flag when they won't release the footage from the officers body camera ...yes??
Whoa wait a second, the dispute is not over littering. The complain and reason for the call is possible assault of a minor / child abuse; littering is secondary.
He did not appear to point his tazer at them, he bloody well did.
He escalated the issue right away!
Cop is clueless on how to do his job. Should be fired!
calling the cops is a big mistake. nothing but trouble now
Now is it just me or is every time we hear something about a police officer putting their hands on a citizen there's no real disciplinary action held against that officer if we put our hands on them we go to jail if they put their hands on us in an abusive and misbehavior dwai they don't go to jail

So can you believe this is actually happening , the charges still remain on them . That's just crazy
WHY show their mug shots!?!? WTF
I like how the officers comment of "Why not" wasn't shown in the subtitles.
This P.O.S. cop should be fired, at the minimum. I hope he has the opportunity in the near future to be treated like he has treated these people.
2:42 There it is, in a nutshell. The woman has just voiced (to the neighbor) her complaint, "Why'd you put your hands on my son?"

Officer is Wrong!!
Dumb cop. A typical bully with a badge who doesn't deserve to wear it. The officer didn't care about the facts of the case and should be suspended without pay. The white assaulted was not dealt with appropriately but the Lady was singled out for the cops black wrath. I pray he travels out of state and receives the same application of poor judgment he possesses.

That pig needs to go!!!!!!!
Just Leaked Chief of police in Ft Worth Might be charged because of his actions ..this is crazy
This is disgusting. Makes it hard for me to admit that I have cops in my family.
He could have gone next door and told his Mom he littered, but he decided to choke a 7 yr old instead.
The cop is clearly a racist and incompetent. He better lose his job.
After watching the video the police chief should have ordered the police officer arrested alongside the man whole didn't deny choking the child.
Why does nothing ever happen to the cops
Can you imagine the cost of police investigating what had been a minor incident UNTIL the cop aggravated the entire original situation? Cop. Was so judgements!
that's insane attacking a women because she's black😒
It's crazy that off these tyrants are trained to defuse these situations but there always the ones that take it from 0 to your all going to jail for nothing in two second its honestly scary and I'm Canadian
So traffic warrants make a person a fugitive?? 😂😂 that's some violent fugitive there, protecting her son. He's a child for heavens sake.

Out of control
restrictive duty means out of public eye until the next cop beats the crap out of someone else.
ozzy kimble I'm pretty sure that's in their policy.
Cop handled this all wrong!! Video seems to be missing footage, from what it looks like. As if it cuts off certain sections and jumps to others.. Nonetheless, this officer's body language, quick to put hands on girl, clearly says it was handled very poorly ..
And the police wander why we hate them!
Texas. That says it all.
Our country sucks. Race relations are just really bad and it is very sad
This is ridiculous.
No adult should have the right to choke a child. Like the little boy's mother asked "Why didn't the neighbor go to his mother? " That man didn't give that woman a chance! And we all know Why.
So you suppose to be a peace officer and you escalate the situation .........unprofessional...
This is Crazy and Im so Sick and Tired of them getting away with this!!!!! Lord step in and handle this situation from the police chief down to the mayor..
The officer should be fired!!! His fundamental duty is to safeguard lives and property and to protect the innocent! He did neither, he is a coward in a uniform with a badge that protects him !!!! He is an embarrassment to the The badge and his department
They just hit the lottery
what is the payoff of that jackpot if you took it all in a one lump sum?
Why did the cop do nothing to the white guy who choke the boy?, ooh because the cop didn't care about the black little boy ",I'm just going by what I seen in the video!....
improper training
Why do we allow law enforcement to investigate themselves in instances like this.
I don't mind them doing so, as long as it does not interfere with any charges the officer will face.

why is it taking time, i watched it once and its very clear that the police officer stuffed up big time.
They tried to call the police first . It didn't work.. wonder why we handle shit ourselves
Bad move cop
This is absolutely ridiculous he needs to be fired
This is so Sad that they all still face charges on top of it! Officers are so SKETCHY to say the least!!!! 😲😲
Black Panther Party needed!
Go on n get paid mama!
Do not be submissive... We all are fighting oppression. ...
Teach your son not to litter!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Are you kidding me! A child was assaulted!!!!!!!
What an embarrassment to america!

I'm sure the officer will be dealt with severely. LOL. Just kidding.
This cop is a racist! His concern is about the child littering not the man who choked the kid! He needs to be fired through the hell out of them!
Oh yeah I forgot cops investigate cops
A officer should not put there hands on any seven year old, unless he is taking the child to there guardian. The individual who complain about the littering on there property, could have spoken to the kid family. Apparently the caller has never been seven.
This guy needs to fired and police chief needs to resign. Vote the Mayor out of office.
'Please be patient while we investigate ourselves'
stay strong Queen
Dont ever call a police again
really??? its a simple citation hand it to them and just go wow whats the point I just don't understand whats going on now just sad and sick
Crazy
That cop handled this situation in the most worst way.......A CHILD WAS CHOKED!!!!
...hmmmmm, so sad, personal issues.
And it's going to get worst, if we do not make a change.
But when cops litter it is OK
Calm down, people!! The cops are going to investigate the cops and everything will be alright!
Richard Ensey lol
You must be crazy
U on da net fool"
This is horrible
Not really controversy. Pretty blatant.
I keep saying......
A large number of police officers have anger/stress issues or even PTSD...

trumps america
don't know about this one they were closing in on him.
what do you think the mom there at the end I had such so clearly written out speech and you really think that's like what she really thinks why was she censored
Why is this man not been arrested for the assault on the young child. If the original Officer refused to do the arrest then why hasn't another Officer been assigned to make the arrest. Why has this not happened already.
He was attack by 3 or 4 people. Duh
And by he, I meant their Police "expert"
The officer was wrong to move the first daughter out of the way. After that, it all went down hill. The officer is wrong.
Cop's like these makes people dislike are hate them, these are the ones that beat their wives and cursed their mothers, hopefully women see this video, so they can run when they see this robot coming,
Expert: I don’t understand why mother was arrested. Obviously case of black in America.
Yet they turned them into trashers. now it's reach farther ahead. This happened to me in Chicago at Ameristar casino. Looking for a lawyer now.
That officer didnt maintain control of the situation.

sometimes things are better said by saying nothing at all.
