Cops Use Stun Gun Twice On Unarmed Amputee
Man in wheelchair was handcuffed, left on sidewalk with his pants down
MERCED, Calif. - A California man whose legs are amputated says police used a stun gun on him twice and violently manhandled him even though he was unarmed.
Internal affairs investigators say they're looking into the complaint by 40-year-old Gregory Williams, who was arrested Sept. 11 on suspicion of domestic violence and resisting arrest.
Williams and witnesses say officers tasered the wheelchair-bound man twice, then left him handcuffed with his pants down on the sidewalk in broad daylight. Williams spent six days in jail before prosecutors said they lacked evidence to charge him.

The police - the most corrupt organization in America.
Sounds like something Salisbury City police would do.
When I read "unarmed amputee" I thought this was a politically correct way of saying that he had no arms.
I agree 9:11. But SPD IA only goes after cops not in the click. Didn't make your stats, IA! Didn't salut the wimp LT, IA! Didn't call out that business check, IA! (In the click)- didn't do a marrs when you should have, thats ok. It is ok if your late. Thats SPD all the way.
The title to this post is hilarious.
This should produce outrage among people in Merced, California. Electric shock is not a weapon, it is a torture tool.
but cops never "act stupidly"
Unless he was "armed" with a weapon he was not a huge danger in his condition.But what do I know?LOL
