9:09Now PlayingOfficers in Phoenix, Arizona were caught via their own body cameras discussing how they regret not committing any acts of police brutality on Black Lives Matter protesters during arrests last October. According to the Washington Post, three Arizona officers arrested 18 members of BLM and stated they were disappointed "that they hadn't trampled the group and doused them in pepper spray".
Arizona Police Chief Jeri Williams responded to the matter and called the officers' behavior disrespectful. Adding their behavior threatened the police department's relationship with the community it swore to protect and serve. She plans to take swift action in order to discipline the officers as she sees fit. At this time the Chief has not revealed what that discipline may look like.
According to the post, just hours after the body-cam footage was released, the Maricopa County Attorney's Office announced that it would dismiss charges against 15 protesters who were arrested on October 17. The protesters were facing a number of charges including rioting, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and resisting arrest.
Chief Williams says the department will undergo reform in order to prevent another incident like this one from occurring again.
