YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWarren McCowan was arrested for DUI. He told the arresting officer that he had a shoulder injury. Disregarding, during the ride to the jail in the police car, the police office gave McCowan a "rough ride", by failing to restrain him with a seatbelt, and by driving in a reckless manner so as to cause him to bounce around the back seat.
Once at the jail, the police officer delayed access to medical care, despite searing shoulder pain. Adding injury to injury, when McCowan was in a holding cell, the police officer ordered him to stand. He could not due to being handcuffed (in the holding cell, why?), and so with the assistance of another officer, the police pulled him up by her arms, causing his shoulder to audible tear!
This maltreatment resulted in $120,000 in medical bills, as well as pain and suffering.
After the DUI charge was dismissed, McCowan sues the New Mexico officer who mistreated him. The officer claims qualified immunity. In today's case, we discuss whether the police can get away with this blatant police misconduct.
