NYPD Officers Charged With Assault in Alleged Beating of Kahreem Tribble (GRAPHIC VIDEO)
The officers broke some of Tribble’s teeth and left him bruised and bloodied, Amy Rameau, Tribble’s lawyer, said.
“He’s not the same kid he used to be, his parents will tell you that,” Rameau said in a telephone interview. “This case is only the beginning. These cops are operating with impunity. They think they can run amok. I hope this will send a message.”
Now why would they think they can run amok?
The last time city police officers were prosecuted for brutality was in 2008, according to the New York Daily News, when three officers were charged with forcing a baton into a man’s anus during an arrest. A jury acquitted the officers.
Good thing there hasn’t been any police brutality committed by the NYPD since 2008. Whoops, not even then since they were actually acquittted.
