A Bakersfield father of four died this week after struggling with nearly nine police officers outside of a medical facility. Witnesses say that the thirty-three year old pled for his life.
Reports say he died early Wednesday morning after being struck by nine officers an unreported number of times. He was believed to be intoxicated.
Some witnesses evidently filmed the incident on their cellphones. However, deputies were quick to confiscate the phones.Individuals who claim they saw the event in addition to Silva’s relatives recounted a scene where officers were beating a powerless man to death. Witnesses were outraged at video evidence being confiscated by deputies.
According to Reason Magazine:
John Tello, a criminal law attorney, is representing two witnesses who took video footage and five other witnesses to the incident. He said his clients are still shaken by what they saw.
“When I arrived to the home of one of the witnesses that had video footage, she was with her family sitting down on the couch, surrounded by three deputies,” Tello said.
Tello said the witness was not allowed to go anywhere with her phone and was being quarantined inside her home.
When Tello tried to talk to the witness in private and with the phone, one of the deputies stopped him and told him he couldn’t take the phone anywhere because it was evidence to the investigation, the attorney said…..
A search warrant wasn’t presented to either of the witnesses until after Tello arrived, he said, adding that one phone was seized before the warrant was produced.
Tello said the phone of the first witness was taken after the deputies told him he was either going to give up the phone the easy way or the hard way.

US cops are murderers and scum. The chief of police should be fired over this contemptible murder and illegal confiscation of evidence, evidence of their complicity in murder.
If you have TESTICLES and you get this stuff on film RUN and put it Online! Don’t bow down and suck like a pussy!
Welcome to 1984..
Im still waiting on the Drop Box Info ? what is taking so long, this is wasiting my time and its having me think it is Fabricated BS
People are so dumb. Just film MOST of the episode, but turn and run away before the cops are able to even notice you. You do not have to stay until the bloody end of a situation. Get most of it on your cell then go like crazy to some place far away. Most cops are fat pigs and an not catch you if you leave the scene before everything stops.
Of course Americans are too stupid to figure this out!
Gee, I wonder if this police department had their “specialized training” in Israel as so many have these days.Abe Foxman of the ADL likes to brag about the number of key police department heads that have tax payer trips to Israel so thay can learn the tactics of the
IDF.
where is the video ? I will send it to the news station here in NYC , my Cousin works in News 12
I’m setting up a drop box account between my PC, Mac, and Smart Phone. If I am able to ever take a video such as these folks took, it will be uploaded to the drop box ASAP, then I’ll delete the Drop Box app from the phone.
The more police officer behave like criminals the less likely the general public will be to attempt to help them.
