San Antonio Schools Fire Police Officer Accused of Body-Slamming Student
The day of the untouchable police officer is done. Now they can’t hide behind the blue wall of lies, falsify reports and have more credibility than a civilian on the stand. Our phones are the most powerful check on police power. Use them well, use them often.
A school police officer who slammed a middle-school student to the ground has been fired.
The incident at Rhodes Middle School in San Antonio late last month was captured on cell phone video.”We understand that situations can sometimes escalate to the point of requiring a physical response; however, in this situation we believe that the extent of the response was absolutely unwarranted,” said San Antonio Independent School District Superintendent Pedro Martinez.
