Don't Break Curfew...OR ELSE!

ADVERTISEMENTS
This is an EXTREMELY disturbing video of a 15 year-old Florida girl (Shelwanda Riley) being handcuffed for A CURFEW VIOLATION by Fort Pierce Police Officer Dan Gilroy (Here is his Myspace Page). Riley was acting like a 15 year-old kid when she started bawling and screaming and then...well, it gets bad.

I think I've decided that Florida has taken the title from California for having crazy shit happen with their law enforcement. It's disturbing to watch the cop handle her the way he does, its disturbing to watch him punch her in the face, and its disturbing to watch him pepperspray her but nothing comes quite close to the majority of morons that commented on how the officer did the right thing.
I could almost say the officers actions would have been appropriate with someone that had just assaulted another person or at least done something a little more serious than breaking curfew.
I just don't get it.

The Bite

The Punch


The Spray

Watch the video...is anyone else outraged at this cops actions?
