Controversial video of Houston Police Department beating of teen burglar

[TripInsure]

That is really scary.. brutal.

[wcjcnc]

Hmm. Don't want your ass kicked by the police? Don't steal. Very simple and easy to do.

[MischievousKittie]

breaking the law is wrong but that is over over kill.Your supposed to detain and stop the crime..not commit more in doing so. I hope they're charged.

[urbexJunkie2011]

When someone tries to steal something that someone else worked hard for then its justified.

[thetruth4every1]

if i cought this man robbing my house....i couldn't do this to him....what gives them the right?

[dolan2159]

@DAlani123 What the fuck are you talking about? How does that crap have anything to do with modern police brutality, which is happening everywhere? BTW, It is not a primitive frenzy; they are well trained cops that are well aware that they are doing the wrong thing.

[lakedog19352]

Forget the fact that this kid committed how many burglaries and is a scumbag, he is a hero because he got beaten by the police. Man society is sad...

[H713281832TX]

This shit happens all the time in Houston..It just doesn't get caught on camera very often..

[DAlani123]

@adiostraitorobama ....kinda. The police are USED by the Feds, as the right arm OF the government. If the cops were THE fovernment, Houston Officer Rodney Johnson's killer, MX illegal alien Juan Quintero wouldn't be alive. The police are USED by the Feds, in this particular incident and time, toward ethnic cleansing.

[sisterburk]

primitive frenzy... yes, lynchings, burnings, eye gouging....google a really great article that will, go back.

"Sacrificing Christ / Sacrificing Black Men.

Journal of Southern Religion.

[Jrobinson2009]

@adiostraitorobama i take from what you just said your not black, but yes the so called legal system is nothing like what the masses percieve it as.

[Jrobinson2009]

@adiostraitorobama i agree, i'm saying the Klan is within the government along with other powerful organizations that want authority.

[GameFelon]

@adiostraitorobama LOL fuck you.

[Jrobinson2009]

@adiostraitorobama more like the New World Klan

[60microphonemajesty]

@adiostraitorobama If you say so...

[skhaney]

hi

[RussiaNukesAmerica3]

Actually, these kind of shenanigans wouldn't seem out of the ordinary, and would be EXPECTED from the police in a city with a FAGGOT, and openly-gay LESBIAN as Mayor.

[pitolove71]

You know since the parents can no longer discipline their children, the police are know allowed to do so. Hey, he's not dead & he does need a lesson. I think everyone who gets arrested should get their ass beat. Maybe that will help curb crime & immorality in America.

I'm an ex-felon and I approve this message.

[eduardovdh]

Police Brutality in the United States of America for the world to see!

[rodjohnson69]

that'll teach him!!!

[dustinthewendy]

thank you abc13 for doing a damn fine job of reporting relevant, important news!

since homeland security was implemented police have been given more rights and the people fewer. they are trained often times by blackwater companies and have become more and more violent. the pack mentality takes over when there are more than one of them together more often than not.

we must rein in our paid servants who are supposed to 'serve and protect' the public.

how can one trust that whIch he fears?

[Rangerpjonwebx]

Sub-human.

[GameFelon]

First of all, I am black. I don't agree with this. But it reminds me of when we were kids and got caught doing something very naughty. You still get a beating regardless that you're sorry you got caught. Look at all the chaos he caused...the police were mad. Like I said, I don't agree...but I kinda understand.

[videospostedbyme]

@GameFelon There is nothing to understand here... We simply do not act like them (criminals) because they feel like acting that way... These are trained officers and should conduct themselves in such a manner... They catch them and the courts punish them... Not the officers... This is shameful…

[GameFelon]

@videospostedbyme Point taken. You are absolutely right, which is why said I don't agree with the way the officers conducted themselves. But I do understand why they would be furious. I guess I'm just more upset that they treat this guy more like a victim.

[salbella50]

@GameFelon ....AN OFFICER SHOULDN'T PUT HIS HANDS ON YOU..WHILE MAKEING AN ARREST...YOU IDIOT....do you wear glasses and look stupid..because you sound like a nerd....

[GameFelon]

@salbella50 Well he shouldn't participate in criminal behaviors and this would have never happened, you dumb son of a bitch. Stfu and blow your dad because you sound gay and ignorant.

[004burke]

These are not four policemen. These are four pigs.

[liberalguy513]

"Quanell X"... what kind of name is that? Is that his slave name? He needs a couple of good kicks just for that name.

Just remember kids, black is the new blue.

[liberalguy513]

How about this, don't commit crimes and you won't get the shit beaten out of you.

[bluwaterzzz]

@liberalguy513

Try reading BOOKS and learning something about the judicial process in your OWN fucking country so you don't look like the FUCKING BACKWOODS INBRED DUMMY that you are. How about THAT?

[liberalguy513]

@bluwaterzzz I just read the Rodney King Biography "Don't be cheating if you can't take a beating" and I sure learned something...it pays to be white and polite.

[myzstikal]

@liberalguy513

Apparently you must live in a bubble because their are many innocent people that are abused and wrongly jailed every day in America.

[bowtie3]

wow thugs cops. these un-American cops should be put away for life. I would give them the chair.

Just proves that white trash doesn't grow far from the tree

[bluwaterzzz]

@bowtie3

They have already FIRED four of these rogue cops.

[bowtie3]

@bluwaterzzz Fired? These kind of thugs need to go prison.

[salbella50]

TAKE ALL OF THE OFFICERS NAMES...AND WHEN A HOUSTON OFFICER STOPS YOU...ASK FOR HIS NAME...IF ONE OF THOSE NAMES COME UP...LEAVE THE AREA..AND IF THEY ASK WHY DID YOU RUN FROM THIS OFFICER...BECAUSE I FEARED FOR MY LIFE....UNTIL THEY FIRED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE BASTARDS........RUN LIKE HELL....

[dryshaver]

If you want an example of some "real" police brutality, the Houston police force in the 70's were notorious......I remember when some of them threw a Mexican off the ship channel bridge....Holley probably would have fared alot worse with those "good ol boys"

[richnice35]

I don't care what the dude did. Cops are not to decide the punishment nor guilt. This is ridiculous! These are the people we expect to uphold the law, not brake it! This is crazy! You say the kid deserved a beating? Then let the beating be delivered after a due process. That kid could be any of the young men out there that was innocent and mistaken to be the burglar. When the ppl that are supposed to uphold the law brake the law, it leads to lawlessness. How bout an Egypt seen in the US

[bowtie3]

@richnice35 That's the problem these people are not not cops they're thugs.

[continuityofliberty]

And these guys think they're tough.

Drive into a kid with your car, then you and your fellow thugs gather 'roud and beat the shit out of him when he's down.

Ooohhh! soooo tough!

[atlkinkyboi]

Better the cops beat the fuck out the ghetto bastard than someone catching him in their home and blowing his brains out. This is coming from a black man. I hate living in black communities for this very reason. I cant even trust my own kind and have to make sure that i have burgular bars and lock up my house if i just want to go to the store. because niggaz love to steal shit. Not safe 2 even go to clubs in black communties because i may get shot. Its never like that in white clubs

[Whichone40]

@1njtrooper- So your a NJ Trooper- what section you in - I will come and get my million by seeing how you deal with unarmed, defensless, surrendering suspects....and I will then get payed!!! Your just one intelligent individual, "if" you really are an officer of the law, your just another to be exposed so you wont cost the state of NJ any more money in lawsuits!! Just like these soon-to-be ex-officers in Houston, the bad cops cant seem to get it that there are cameras everywhere now!!!

[Falcont]

He deserves a beating. Maybe he'll think twice about committing crimes. By making himself a criminal he voids his rights. Its not constitutionally correct and a violation of his rights? Too bad.

[SpitfireOFatj]

@Falcont "He deserves a beating"

Oh sure, like a judge would order him to be flogged.

[bowtie3]

@Falcont You're a dumbfuck

[d3pod1]

Looks like these cops suffer from 'roid rage. Cops are not the judge, jury and executioner. If the job is too dangerous or scary for them maybe they should look into another career. "How was work today, honey? "Great! Me and four of my co-workers beat the crap out of a 15 year old suspect. It was a great day for police state justice! Maybe tomorrow we can do the same to a 12 year old or even better an old lady."

[Cralfinsamhiemnater]

Come on this is a thief starting his criminal career. This is how criminals should be treated. Criminals should have no human rights no matter the color or race period This is not about race so get over it people. These criminals dont have any compassion towards other people when it comes to killing or stealing, so why should we? Think about it!

[sheabones0]

@Cralfinsamhiemnater Agreed - AFTER due process. It's there for a reason.

[SpitfireOFatj]

@Cralfinsamhiemnater Sorry to be the one to tell you but cops aren't supposed to make the decision that someone needs an ass kicking and then give it to them.

That's called summary judgment.

[dtorfleming]

@Cralfinsamhiemnater

What's it like to be a sick asshole Cralf? Or is it your lack of education or brain power that challenges you?

You want to live in Nazi police state where cops are empowered to kill or torture at will? This is why we have a constitution; to protect us from sick racist hillbillies like you.

[bluwaterzzz]

@Cralfinsamhiemnater

Yes, and only an INBRED MORON would say such a thing. Police officers detain suspects to be TRIED through a judicial process... The only evidence presented HERE shows a man running. Guilt or innocence is determined in a courtroom... Try reading a American Civics book you FUCKING IDIOT!

[BillPropp]

@bluwaterzzz Well said.

[BillPropp]

@bluwaterzzz Well-said!

[walterhcarroll]

they call these cops "rogue", this is the true crime, they are far from "rogue".

[Bigole58]

I think this sad and what really make me mad is, these police officers have  totally disrespect the

city the law, and PUT THEIR FAMILY AT RISK -- THE WIFE, KIDS. ALL RELATIVES.

If I was to do something this stupid, guess what my husband can go to work the next day and my kids DAM sure can't go to school , they didn't think,, THE POLICE OFFICER PUT THEY FAMILIES ON THE FRONT LINE.

PLEASE STOP AND ASK FOR GOD HELP

[WB2RM]

You think this is an anomaly? LOL

This happens every day in every city all the fucking time son.

[MrQfranklin]

The only thing new about this is that there are cameras everywhere catching this kind of footage...imagine if we had cameras from slavery all the way until now....the truth would really come out about how many people really hate me and my brothers. God bless America.

[liberalguy513]

He looked like he was resisting to me.

[2001v8244]

@liberalguy513

right,

The officers were clearly endangered.

[cheekieweekie]

Justice was not done - the officers should be given some community justice. Bring back the stocks. Racists run houston - obviously. Tourists - stay away from texas, there is no law.

[zjones1222]

Cont. Republicans want less government that means less funds and reducing police. People if we reduce the staff of police in the United States crime will rise. Another issue to consider is police brutality. Police brutality is socialogical problem where police are disconnect from community meaning they feel they are opposite of following the law. Less funds means shorter training sessions and more mistakes this video is a result of that.

[zjones1222]

There needs to be an enactment against police brutality now. Best practices standards are included in the training of state and local police. Problem solving and conflict management training describes best practices. Obviously, there's a socialogical disconnect with community and police temperament. There could be several reason why police beatings are on the rise. Top of the list is loss of city funds resulting in less raises and multi-tasking leading to stress.

[jfstarr]

Please remember that there are thousands of Officers out there doing, or trying to do, their jobs in a professional manner everyday. The actions of a few should not paint all of us with the same brush.

[Viracocha711]

@jfstarr The problem is NONE of YOU so-called GOOD COPS would EVER turn in your fellow cop for acting like this! You may not participate but you would never cross the blue line & tell on a fellow officer...PLEASE don't say you would because you know as wel as I what would happen to you. Your career would be all but over! There are probably 10 incidents like this for everyone that gets caught on tape! This woud never been heard of if an incident like this was not caught on tape!

[beeroosterm]

@jfstarr It doesn't look like anybody there was professional. The cop hit the boy (a boy!) with a car first and then after he collapsed to the ground was pummeled by every single officer there. These "actions" were those of angry "unprofessionals". There was NOTHING professional about this takedown and arrest - it was practically mob behavior. How is it that an unarmed boy is hit with a car and pummeled by half a dozen policeman under threat of death (two had guns drawn) for a simple burglary?

[beeroosterm]

@jfstarr That is just such a weak response - sounds like you're running for office or making a speech before a jury. If it were just one guy getting out of control, I believe you would have a case - but this is obviously SOP. It is time for the police to stop being allowed to use these violent tactics to capture and subdue minor criminals. This isn't the wild west.

[2001v8244]

@jfstarr

Shit.

Why not?

They do it. Just being black is suspicious.

[SPACEMANASTRO]

fire them plain and simple is egypt happens in houston there going for the cops first

[SPACEMANASTRO]

fire them plain and simple

[beeroosterm]

@SPACEMANASTRO NO! Arrest them, try them in court, and punish them (including firing them) if guilty.

[james213kmc]

LOL 1.15 officer at top left hand corner signals to his friends after they run off '' where are you going? come back oh well carry on boys fucking pussys.

[james213kmc]

Same shit different day only difference is they got caught. FUCK THEM POLICE

[joshr102588]

lol look at those two cops run away @1:15

[jekl1one]

The cops did not do ther job, the cops beat a 15 year old SUSPECT, then they arrested him. Is beating suspects part of a cops job discription? I highly doubt it, but those with racist views would like it to be. Some answer this?. Should cops be held liable for the crimes they commit. Then google ( Seattle cops Paralyze innocent man ) Should the cop have been held liable. Then ask your self, "Self, have i ever committed a crime and gotten away with it"? The answer is yes. Should you be beaten,

[dryshaver]

Yes cougar the police are dead wrong, I just don't appreciate the way this "Quanell X" uses these unfortunate incidents to make a name for himself....every chance he gets he wants to go on tv and holler about "racial inequality" I would bet that the little beating Holley took, pales in comparison to the violence that he has unleashed on others.

[beeroosterm]

@dryshaver Quanell X...How do these guys even exist any more? We finally get those racist rabble-rousers Al Sharpton and extortionist Jesse Jackson to shut up and now we have this affected idiot to listen to?

[booley]

@beeroosterm yeah now we have this guy who is going to exploit his brutal senseless beating for all it's worth. Personally I blame the video taper. We wouldn't have to hear about this if no one knew it was going on.

This problem goes all the way back to those commies, the founding fathers, who thought the cops should have limits so they wouldn't abuse power.

James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, what a bunch of Anti-American Libtards!

[salbella50]

@beeroosterm ......QUANELL X.....IS A HERO......I WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME THING..IF FACT I'M GOING TO KEEP MY CAMARA IN MY CAR ALL THE TIME TO CATCH A RACIST COP.

[beeroosterm]

@salbella50 My guess is that these cops do this to criminals regardless of race...And Quanell X needs to stop speaking with that affected MLK voice; it's stupid and insulting to the memory of him.

[GameFelon]

@beeroosterm Amen to that! We complain about stereotypes but constantly play the race card. Racism still exists, no doubt. But this is an embarrassment to the black race, not racism towards blacks! 

[cougartino]

Holley is no hero. What he did was wrong. You won't hear otherwise from me. But in our society, the cops make the arrest, the courts convict, and the state jails. What these guys did was make it harder for honest officers do to their jobs. And remember, when first confronted, these guys all lied about it. It wasn't until the video was discovered they hid behind their lawyers' skirts.

[MsSarcasticAss]

►►FUCK THE POPO◄◄

[dryshaver]

Where is the criminal Chad Hollleys role in all of this ?? If he hadn't have been thieving, and running from the police like a complete moron, this mess would never have even started. The police were wrong for the excessive force, but it makes me sick to see this thug paraded up there with this "Quanell X", like some sort of conquering hero. Sorry

[MrPhillyrick1]

@dryshaver this is america. we have rights. and i dont care what he criminal background is, the cops dont have a right to beat anyone,.

[beeroosterm]

@dryshaver He is certainly no hero - he's a petty thief - but the police hit him with a car and then beat him silly both in the course of subduing him and afterward (I think one of them was even kicking him repeatedly in the balls with his left foot). For Christ's sake, how does this happen? Beating a suspect is a clear violation of his rights - and the police are not allowed to use this kind of force. They are not above the law. Christ! They're paid to enforce the law!

[jaimevick]

typical union labor

[cougartino]

@atkin you're so funny. I work as a claim rep for the biggest P&C carrier in North America. I make $73k yearly, live in a middle class neighborhod with one daughter who graduated from college in December, one who's in nursing school and the other an outstanding high school freshman. But the punk ass white trash who sat on his butt and stole my credit card 2 years ago is still walking the street. I hope his white sheet fits. You're the reason why they discourage siblings from having sex.

[SuperRsuarez]

""""stupid COPS """"" don't you know theirs """CAMERA'S"" everywhere !!! even on phones it's like they are looking for a way to get fired""" LOL

[360pinoy]

He got it easy. If I caught this fool in my house he would of got his a## beat way worse then this.

[atlkinkyboi]

Serves his ass right,trying to break in somebody dam shit. lazy fucker need to get a job.As a blk man i am so happy i am moving into an all white neighborhood where i will be greeted with brownies instead of glocs and can leave my doors unlocked. All these black fools in the hood do is rob and kill each other all the time and brag about selling drugs like its cool

[cougartino]

Prosecute the whistle-blower? What's to stop the next cop from just beating the hell out of us? All those bastards lied about it until the video surfaced. Assclowns!

[atlkinkyboi]

@cougartino Stop stealing and get a fucking job and maybe you wouldnt put yourselves in harms way. Stop playing your loud, trash ghetto music and wearing your pants off your ass like faggots thinking youre hard. And that will put a stop to this. The cops were only doing their job. The little ghetto boy shouldnt have resisted arrest. If youre man enough to do the crime, then you should man up and do the time. However atleast he took the ass whooping like a man. Maybe he'll go and get a job now

[Orionx30]

@atlkinkyboi You are an idiot. They do this shit to EVERYONE. Even if you try to use you Constitutional rights as a citizen. They take it as a insult. They are out of control.

[tigerofwu]

I don't know why I am suprised to see MORE police brutality. This kid did not deserve to have his head stopped or kicked in the head multiple times. Those PIGS are pieces of trash! So I guess it's okay for a PIG to assault AMERICANS but if you even touch them it's against the law. HYPOCRITES! Anyone who defends this is beyond reasoning with a caveman mentality.

[snowman15888]

I dont think this has anything to do with Racism, cause one or two of the cops who beat the kid were black also. This is just extreme police brutality.. damn BACON.. but just take not people not all pigs are like that, I live in south houston and have been pulled over a couple times. The cops were polite to me and gave me warnings..

[1njtrooper]

"TAKE YOUR MEDICINE SON" BTW if he would have had his butt in school or home reading a book instead of "BREAKING AND ENTERING" taking things that DID NOT belong to him. Maybe just maybe he would'nt have gotten what he got. He should consider this one to grow on. Cause if he keeps on the same path next time he may get killed breaking into somebody's house.

[whitemankilled]

its war on you fucking devils; this year pigs will bleed when this society falls.....

.....mark my fucking words

[theoneandonlymike77]

Damn! I don't care, that's just messed up! They will get what's coming to them!

[5783harris]

America is a LIE!

[5783harris]

One day the police are going to beat the same people's ass that are saying this is okay. Then they will realize this is not right. Holley was wrong for what he did, however he did not need to be beat like a damn fucking slave. Maybe blacks should take over the HPD and start beating white people's ass. Houstonians should have a riot! It's time to rise up and defend our race again.

[ric4022]

Thats whats gonna happen to the people that stole this land and enslaved us still to this day. There is gonna be so many feet stomping they heads that they gonna suffocate before they bleed to death.

[u229040]

@drummerchuckb I don't know u and your so disrespectful to everyone on here we r just telling people what we know and our opinion on the situation I am not even talking to u and u want to write stuff about your brother should shoot u you have to much free time

[MegaMalik30]

Thats why i applaud when any of these crackers are slaughtered....we need more omar thortons and Lavelle Mixons.....point blank....

MA'AT

[E3D4LIFE]

If I committed a crime and a lawyer finds a loop-hole in the system that gives me a slap on the hand vs prison.Who fault is that? The government, the politicians that we elect into office,The judges,the mayor .These Jerks need to sit down and rewrite the laws. You steal/ chop the hand off, you murder/ instant death chair,etc.The crime rate would drop so quick. But Wait! we cant do that to people this is America.. we have laws. THAT'S THE PROBLEM! Nobody got the balls to change the laws.

[dietcoke1974]

Totally unacceptable! I know he committed a crime but that’s no way to treat a human being! It look like he was surrendering and they still beat him! I know a lot of officers go above and beyond to serve and protect but, they are NOT above the law. Is this the way they treat everyone? I wonder how many other incidents like this has happened that haven’t been caught on tape?

[enott93]

FUCK THE POLICE. and theyre tryin to bury the tape. anything cops do on camera, on duty should be viewable to the public if it wont jeopordize an investigation. and if a cop commits a crime, they should receive a harsher punishment cuz theyre held to a higher standard. these dudes are pieces of shit. and i doubt they wouldve done that to a white boy

[drummerchuckb]

@enott93 you are a fucking idiot. there was a black officer there. white black asian hispanic etc. that turd was a turd. he deserves punishment. if they would have not done that. he'd get his slap on the wrist, and nothing more. fuck him and fuck you. he's been arrested plenty of times before and looks like he didn't learn a damn thing. maybe he can jack you maybe shoot you and then lets see how you feel looking down. fucking joke

[ocgg92841]

@drummerchuckb Police are corrupt and abusive. If you're not white then they treat you like scum !!!!

[E3D4LIFE]

He committed a crime. Catch him.. put the cuffs on him ...and send him to prison. And when the prisoners try to screw him in the ass that should teach him a lesson. Just because Billy Bob had a bad night at home doesn't give him the right to let his anger out at work. For all you HPD cheerleaders keep yo skirts down cause theyre going to fuck you one day too.

[RussiaNukesAmerica3]

Damn, these COPS r CRIMINALS, but maybe it's an isolated incident. Nahh, this type of shit, abuse of power, is rampant in the Houston Police Dept. AMERICA IS DOOMED !

[roel4life]

What if this robber killed a family member while he ran from police!! Thats what happened to my family, let this sorry thief pay, thank you law enforcement! And yes, I am from the hood, raised on welfare! No mercy for criminals!

[laculisa14]

@roel4life Okay it is sad to know that happened to your family but that is no way to treat a human being. For you to say that he should ''pay'' is just as bad as what those police officers did to that boy. If he surrendered then why the hell would they have the right to BEAT him. As a law enforcer they are trained to do their jobs and BEATING someone that is not resisting is not a part of their job! You are praising law enforcers that are breaking the law! Some citizen you are! smfh

[drummerchuckb]

to everyone that comments like ocgg92841. funny how there was a black officer involved. not racist you fucking scum. i hope everyone gets your house broken into and all your shit taken. this fucking kid would have gotten a slap on the wrist, another crime added to his 3 pages already, and that's it. just for him to continue to grow up, do worst and maybe kill a family member of yours. hopefully he will continue and just get shot by another drug dealer and do us all a favor.

[ocgg92841]

@drummerchuckb I'm going to beat your ass faggot!!!!!!

[ocgg92841]

Police: corrupt, abusive, and racist !!!!!

[DkleinD]

The Cops will get back their bad Karma.

[camuflaged1]

The use of excessive force is also a direct violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the U.S Constitution regarding cruelty and protection of the laws.

[yezzirr25]

2 wrongs dont make a right....He SURRENDERED. I can see if he was trying to fight back. On the Cops behalf thats some coward shit..they were just pissed and he got the best of them at the moment and they just made the Department look Real stupid...(from what the video is showing) He must of pissed them off during the chase before what was caught on camera but then everyone wants to get sad if the Dirty Cops get killed..get the fuck outah here..PROOF and Evidence is KARMA

[kesaearth]

ty for posting.

[red99camaro]

Fuck Quanell X. Activist my ass.  He gets rich off his own people.

[u229040]

My brother is a cop and I know through him that all the cops no matter what do crooked shit everywhere you go doesn't matter if black, Hispanic or white officers think they can get away with this shit it pisses me off so much just last month my bro in law and sister were at a club here in Houston and were also beaten by HPD fucking bastards

THEY WERE DRUNK they didn't know what they were doing.

Well my point is there all fucking crooked ass mother fuckers .

[Toprem]

@u229040 So being drunk is an excuse for doing stupid shit that can get your ass beat? Good to know.

[drummerchuckb]

@u229040 your brother needs to arrest and shoot you. he got what he deserved. u commit a felony and let me see your ass dead on tv. i really won't give a fuck

[BunnyBee11]

My issue is that Although he is WRONG AS HELL! He is a CHILD! that the beat like a GROWN MAN! Now if the parent did what you just saw they would be in jail for child endangerment, asuld and battery of a minor. that was SO NOT the way to handle this.

[Toprem]

@BunnyBee11 16 years old is not a child, it's two years away from being legally considered an adult. His age does not excuse what he did and he deserved to get beaten because of what he did.

[BunnyBee11]

@Toprem....... the difference 2 years make....he is still a child by LAW if his mother would have done the same thing she would be in jail...what of the LAW so they can do any one that way???? He IS WRONG for stealing but DAMN 5 to one and in a surrender position.. NOT FIGHTING???? in no way did those officers feel they were in danger! what those officers did was CRMINAL! just like the CRIMINAL they were asulting!

[drummerchuckb]

@Toprem thank you yes. HE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED. like my post. he would have gotten a slap of the wrist and another crime added to his long list he already has. fuck him and quanell. both are ghetto and trash.

[scringer12]

Thanks for posting. I've been sharing this story on FB.

[prettyboy1970]

One thing that's more infuriating than criminals is stupid motherfuckers that DEFEND criminals. FUCK CHAD HOLLEY. He's a crook who got caught red-handed, and got his bitch ass whupped. Muggers, rapists, burglars, carjackers, etc should be executed.

[5783harris]

@prettyboy1970 Nobody is defending him. He just should not have been beaten after he surrendered.

[mellymelhood2]

Thank you Shelese & MrMan for speaking truthfully with alot of common sense,unlike mr. 30 years!!

[mellymelhood2]

@ judge&jury.First of all I'm not bout to argue with you about stupidity.Put the kid threw the court system,jail etc.He did a crime he deserves time.You know you would be outraged if your close friend or relative was beating like that even after he surrendered.The boy ran but gave up with no fighting back and got his ass kicked.Anyways stick to the facts,we not talking bout rape or my life.Law Enforcement suppose to represent Order.That doesn't look like order to me.

to judeandjury555, you mentioned "thrity years ago" well thirty years ago was when HPD would throw handcuffed prisoners into buffalo bayou and watch them drown, once he surrendered he should have been handcuffed and taken in, end of story. Thats the way our system is setup if you dont like talk to your legislator.

@judgeandjury555 smh you can't be serious. YES he deserves to go to jail and be punished for the crime he committed. but that IN NO WAY gives these officers the right to beat this young man up like this. They're lives were NOT in danger!! They're wearing bullet proof vests WITH GUNS!! This boy is on the ground in HANDCUFFS!!! What could he possibly be doing to harm them? You're just as sick as these officers.

@ mellymelhood2, have you been a victim of a crime? Would you feel sorry for Chad for breaking into your house or would you be pissed? Would you beat Chad's ass if he raped your loved one or would you let the courts handle it? Sometimes people do stupid things when your adrenalin is pumping and your put in a life threatening situations.

Is beating up innocent people wrong? Yes it is.....is beating a criminal who's is trying to steal something and then run from you wrong? I'll let you answer that yourself.....I don't necessarily agree with this behavior but maybe it will make these ignorant,selfish,dumbasses think twice about committing a criminal act and being caught by the wrong person wether it's a cop or some average Joe walking the street....

The young man should have been arrested. But there is no excuse for these officers. I really feel sad for the officers who do the job right day in and day out.

[mellymelhood2]

Judgeandjury, you are a fucking idiot.I'm not excusing what Chad did,he deserves to go to jail.But that is straight up HPD brutality!!!That has nothing to do with Justice,they looked like a pack of wild animals in uniform!!

[mellymelhood2]

Who's worse?Criminals or HPD?

[drummerchuckb]

@mellymelhood2 criminals duh, ship em all to afganistan. that would be nice. make america what it should be

[Judgeandjury555]

I bet he won't do it again. Think about this. Crime would go down tremendously if law enforcement, policed like they did 30 years ago. Get rid of the liberal judges and allow cops to give out some "street justice". If anyone posts anything but agreement with the police then your a criminal or liberal. Go ride with you local law enforcement before you say something negative about this video.
