5:50Now PlayingA police officer in Fairfax County, Virginia has been caught on tape apparently using a stun gun on a man who was not resisting arrest. John Iadarola (Think Tank) and Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show Podcast), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A US police officer is under investigation for excessive use of force, after a video emerged of the officer tasing a man who appeared to show no resistance. Witnesses who saw the incident in Fairfax County, Virginia, said “there was no reason to taser the man.”
Police said the suspect was wanted in connection with a theft and approached him on September 24. A video posted on social media showed a police officer holding a taser, while issuing the man with instructions. The video shows the suspect complying and turning around to put his hands on top of the police vehicle. However, the law enforcement officer decided to taser the man, despite him appearing to show no resistance.”*
