Dexter?-You won't think it's so funny when it happens to you. Police need to be made more aware of diabetics and the different behaviors in differently abled people. Otherwise it's going to cost a lot in county payouts.

I would freaking hope that more than one gets fired, and they can laugh like that while looking for a new job, like maybe cooking that gentleman's corn dogs at the local convenience store because I sure would not hire them. Miss use of authority is a sad thing.

This is pretty despicable. Kicking him in the face and kneeing him in the ribs multiple times when being restrained by 5 police officers? Is that really necessary? I read that he had some fractured ribs from this incident. That is truly unfortunate.

I hope he gets a good lawyer and sues the hell out of that police department. The officers involved should be reprimanded and given severe pay cuts/time off/termination.

Police just need to do their job and keep the emotions out of it. Even if this guy was drunk he's not an MFer. Let the courts decide. This is what you get with over zealous police. I hope someone get fired.

my husband is a type one diabetic, and I have always feared that police would proceed in this manner, causing futher damage to him. there are quite a few differences between diabetic shock and drunkness like the profuse sweating and the scared panicked look of disorientation.Cops need to beware of medical problems, especially amongst the aging population, and not be so quick to try to prove how tough they are or these settlements could be more numerous. I quite agree with Ownen's comment as well.

first one should be charged with assault with a deadly weapon. the henderson cop that comes up after he is down and kicks him in the head needs to be fired immediately but seems that all of them should be fired .

Henderson mayor regrets victim's 'pain and suffering' in police beating

By DOUG McMURDO

LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL

Henderson Mayor Andy Hafen expressed remorse Thursday over what happened to Adam Greene, the man who was in diabetic shock when city police beat and kicked him during a traffic stop in October 2010.

"What happened to Mr. Greene was wrong and we regret the pain and suffering that he and his family endured because of it," Hafen said in a prepared statement.

It was the first public comment on the incident by anyone on the City Council since it approved a $158,000 settlement with Greene, 38, on Tuesday.

City Councilmen Sam Bateman and John Marz said they voted to approve the settlement in the best interest of the city. Councilwoman Gerri Schroder said she read Hafen's statement and agreed with his comments. Councilwoman Debra March did not return a call seeking comment.

The traffic stop was videotaped by a Nevada Highway Patrol dashboard camera. That tape, which was released by Greene's attorney Tuesday, showed police Sgt. Brett Seekatz kicking Greene in the head five times and another officer kneeing the unresponsive Greene in the midsection four times. Highway Patrol troopers did not appear to hit or kick Greene. Later police discovered that Greene was in diabetic shock and was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol as they had suspected.

Greene sustained broken ribs and bruises that didn't heal for two months. The city attorney approved a $99,000 settlement with Greene's wife. The sum was just under what would require the City Council's approval. The state agreed to pay Greene $35,000 for a total settlement of $292,500.

"As a council we voted to resolve our legal issues related to this incident with the settlement we approved this week," said Hafen. "We hope that it can provide some peace and closure to Mr. Greene and his family as a result."

Hafen said his "great concern" is that the city learns from the incident and reduces the risk of it ever happening again.

He said the Police Department modified its training and use of force policies after the incident, and "As a result, we have already seen the numbers of those types of incidents go down."

He also said the city's police officers respond to hundreds of calls every day and the incident with Greene was isolated and does not represent "our entire police force."

Seekatz was disciplined and remains a sergeant.

Hafen said the mark of a good organization is the ability to learn from mistakes, own up to them and improve. "We have tried to do that and will continue to do so in the future as we try to hold our officers and our department to the highest standards of accountability," he said.

Bateman, who is also a deputy district attorney, said settling with Greene was in the city's best interest. "I reviewed the videotape and the settlement seemed appropriate," he said. He also believed the city attorney made the appropriate decision settling with Greene's wife for $99,000. He said offering similar settlements without City Council oversight was appropriate. "We have a $600 million-plus budget," he said. "At some point we have to draw the line. We have to trust our top staff to be responsible and we do."

He also said that while he doesn't condone what happened to Greene, he understands emotions sometimes run high in police work. "I work with law enforcement all the time," Bateman said. "They (police) didn't know what they were dealing with and sometimes they have to be aggressive to diffuse a public threat."

But Bateman also said it was clear Seekatz's actions were unacceptable. "I think it's fair for the general public to watch the video and have serious concerns with that particular employee," he said. Bateman questioned whether the discipline Seekatz received was appropriate, but because he was not on the council until June 2011, eight months after the incident, he declined to comment.

Actually Police have no legal reasoning to serve or protect any individual citizen.

In Warren vs. District of Columbia, it was ruled that police in reality have no reason to protect the citizens.

which gives you more of a right to own an gun yourself, but most cities outlaw it in public places.

As for the video, I called the police on a state trooper today, he was crossing lanes through an intersection without his blinkers, tailgating several vehicles in the fast lane so they hurried up and moved out of the way. So I decided to catch up to him and tag his speed (At 95mph).

I then, beeped my horn at him, and followed him for another couple of seconds, he turned on his lights and went into pursuit mode, then tore off. I saw him like a minute later just sitting at a left turn lane waiting to take a U turn with his lights off again.

What a douche bag, first he breaks his own laws, then uses his pursuit mode lights so he can pass cars just to turn around.... sorry not in my sight officer.

you want to bust people for doing the same stupid shit you are doing then you can kiss my ass. :nwo:
