this is a topic i have discussed with a friends uncle whom is a police officer and also during my criminal justice class with a cop it is their job to use their discretion
if this woman is visably shaken an from the description wasnt making it appear to be a lie ,he could have easily let her go furthermore he followed her to the hospital so he knew she wasnt bullshittin him yet he let his ego get in the way, and blatantly used excessive force the law on the books is that force is to be equal to the force of the criminal she used no force therefore he had no justifiale reason to throw her around

Dude, just because you’re a CJ major…doesn’t mean jack shit. First off you’re talking about NY state Penal codes and certain departments
“Justifiable Force” policies…not Florida’s.
Secondly, the force doesn’t have to be equal to. :bloated: You are allowed to utilize force found “one step” higher on the ranks of deadly force. You use a knife, I use a gun. You use your fists, I use my tazer.
