A 15-year-old student at a special needs school got a lesson in police brutality.
Marshawn Pitts, who attends the Academy for Learning in the south suburb of Dolton, was slammed into a locker and thrown to the ground by an unidentified police officer as he was taking Pitts to the principals office for an untucked shirt.
A security camera installed in one of the schools halls caught the entire confrontation, which ended with a broken nose for Pitts, who lay motionless while the officer sat on him.
The fight allegedly broke out after the officer asked the student to tuck his shirt in, a policy enforced in the school.
The boys attorney, Ed Manzke, says the video will help Pitts cause.
Were fortunate that it [the beating] was caught on videotape, he told the Chicago Tribune. There is nothing [the officer] can say that could justify [the beating].
The video shows the police officer and the student walking down a hall. After saying something to a woman standing there, Pitts is violently pushed against the lockers by the officer, who then proceeds to pin the student to the floor.
As the fight starts, students in adjacent classrooms try to walk out of class, but are blocked by other teachers. Once the student is on the floor, two other men run up to the officer, but its unclear if they were trying to block or help him.

The cop has resigned and is now being sued by the childs attorney.

  • Bully cop with inferiority complex because he has a small needle dick. FTP

  • @TiKondaRoga You have no idea what your talking about do you? List the statute that supports your opinion. Oh, all police officers take an oath of office, federal or state. Do you know what branch of government police officers are in? Do you know what a Mandate is? Are police officers civilians? Is a Sheriff a civilian or government official? Do you know the difference? Do you know what an oath is?

  • @DanceRooster Haha. The oath of office is the federal mandate. Police officers are warranted council employees, not federal workers. Sheriff's are however state employees and are indeed sworn by the oath. And administer: to bring into use or operation: to administer justice; to administer last rites. What you're trying to say is not at all what I said...

  • @TiKondaRoga Go read the oath of office, and list the statute that states Administer Authority.

  • @DanceRooster Lol cops are civil servants not federal servants. If he was a sheriff that would be true. The need cops in schools because of kids like this... And,"There is no such position as Administer Authority'? You do know what administer means right?...

  • @TiKondaRoga The cops job is to protect and defend the constitution and inforce the criminal code of law. There is no such position as Administer Authority. Why do we need cops in schools? Unless we live in a police state.

  • @DanceRooster It's the cops job to administer authority...This guy think's he's above the law. And frankly the courts are a joke. If this kid went to court he would play the race card (as is being played anyways), and probably be able to sue the police (which is actually the tax payers money)...

  • @TiKondaRoga So its the cops job to administer punishment? I though that was the courts job?

  • God damn there's some really stupid people on Youtube. Just cause he's a moron and gets shit grades doesn't make him a "special needs" student. Also, look at the other people in the hall, they're obviously helping the cop...Thus being, the kid did something...
