In this outrageous video out of Georgia a police officer is seen violently slamming a 70-year-old woman to the ground, then his fellow officer intimidates the man who filmed the incident.
From Nick James on YouTube:
A DUI arrest on a 72 year old women turns bad when Kevin Jones (badge #149) of the Glynn County police is trying to cuff the woman. She was taken down, and did not have her arms to break the force that Jones decided to use on her. The sound is the worst part. Both sides will need this footage, and it deserves to be put online for people to make their own judgement. Glynn County Police,157 Public Safety Blvd. Brunswick, GA

UPDATED (12/12/2013): Glynn County police investigating arrest
A Glynn County police officer has been placed on administrative duty during an internal affairs investigation of his conduct in a Dec. 5 arrest on St. Simons Island in which a woman was thrown to the ground, the police chief said.
[…]While Jones placed the woman against the back of his patrol car, “she gets very rigid and won’t cooperate,’’ [Police Chief Matt] Doering said.
The woman had already “clawed’’ Jones’ hand and again sunk her fingernails into his hand causing additional painful, lacerations that drew blood, Doering said.
In the dark, Jones wasn’t sure it was her nails so he acted to stop her assault, Doering said.
“He throws her to the ground to stop her from assaulting him and finish the arrest,’’ Doering said.
