How is that even possible? Not that these things shock me anymore.

It's not quite the same, but it kind of reminds me of this:

Almost.

he Florida State Attorney’s office is investigating an Orlando police officer after discovering that his department did not provide body camera footage related to an incident in which he punched and kicked a handcuffed man, WFTV-TV reported.

Authorities might charge Officer William Escobar in connection with his arrest of 25-year-old Refus Holloway this past March. Footage taken by Holloway’s sister shows him handcuffed and laying on the ground face-down when Escobar punches him in the back of the head. However, Escobar said in his report that he hit Holloway because he was “attempting to stand up” and resist being handcuffed.

He might have shot her and then claimed he felt threatened because she was an atheist.

Justice Dept. stops immigrant’s deportation to investigate his beating by police

The Justice Department has stopped deportation proceedings against a 27-year-old undocumented immigrant and tapped him as a material witness in the investigation concerning his apparent beating at the hands of police, the Huffington Post reported.

Prosecutors dropped charges of resisting arrest and assault on a police officer against Edgar Arzate following his Oct. 1 arraignment on a federal warrant in Santa Ana, California, where police attacked him this past June while he was surrendering outside a local residence.

WATCH: NYPD cops pistol-whip cowering teenage pot suspect after foot chase

The officers said they feared the teen had a weapon.

Ah yeah...the standard horseshit excuse nowadays. So he puts his hands up to surrender and they still beat the shit out of him.

North Carolina..... typical.

Black teen in white foster home pepper-sprayed by police who mistook him for burglar

I suspect that the back-story here is that the "neighbors" aren't too thrilled with him living there. I'm not buying the mistaken identity shit.

At least they didn't kill him.
