Man Indicted for Assault, Despite Police Being Caught on Video Viciously Attacking Him

Man facing multiple charges including assault on a police officer

A terrible injustice is transpiring in New Jersey this week as a man was just indicted for assaulting police officers after surveillance footage clearly shows one of the worst cases of police brutality ever caught on film.

Connor Castellani, 22, of Linwood, will stand trial for three charges; aggravated assault on a police officer, a third-degree crime; resisting arrest with threats or use of force or violence, also a third-degree crime; and inflicting harm on a law enforcement animal, a fourth-degree crime.

The incident happened in the early morning hours of June 15, 2013. Castellani was kicked out of the Tropicana resort for being underage.

The entire stop was caught on video after Castellani left the casino. Officers stopped him, questioned him, made him empty his pockets and eventually sent him on his way.

However, after Castellani walked away he is seen on video yelling something at the officers; a mistake that nearly cost him his life. After a brief verbal exchange, police run up to the 20-year-old man and proceed to beat him to the point of hospitalization.

25 to life for you and me.
A round of beers and a hearty laugh for the people who are charged with our "safety".
Keep cheering.
