Dayton, OH — “I thought I might die,” said Amber Swink of her harrowing experience being pepper-sprayed while in a seven-point restraint chair in the Montgomery County Jail in Dayton, Ohio, on November 15, 2015.

Video footage of the torturous incident shows Swink so tightly restrained in the chair, she is hardly able to move her head; but that didn’t stop Sgt. Judith L. Sealey from entering the isolation cell and unleashing pepper-spray in the 25-year-old’s face — at near point-blank range — for seemingly no reason but sadistic pleasure.   Continue reading “Horrifying Video Shows Cop Torturing Restrained Woman With Mace Until She Falls Unconscious”

Terence Crutcher died on September 16. The medical examiner found the cause of death to be a gunshot wound to the chest. The death was ruled a homicide, and Officer Betty Jo Shelby was charged with first-degree murder.   Continue reading “Attorney Calls PCP In Unarmed Man’s System Immaterial To Police-Involved Murder”

Over 60 percent of adult Americans have confessed that they are “very afraid” of corrupt government officials. That fear is holding its leading position for the second year in the row and is followed by terrorism and money-related concerns.   Continue reading “Over 60% of Americans fear corrupt government – study”

On Tuesday the Los Angeles Police Commission passed a proposal to give LAPD officers more training before deploying lethal force.

The commission also said there needs to be an “increase [in] the number of staff who review how officers use less serious force, such as less-lethal weapons or punches, to take someone into custody.” The argument behind new requirements for less-lethal force is that such force is used more often than lethal.   Continue reading “LA Police Commission: Officers Need More Training Before Using Lethal Force”
