(1,045 posts)Saw this item last night. Found it most upsetting. That the cops had no
Reason apparently to do what they did. It hurt that they would treat a
Serving member like dirt. What made it doubly hurtful,he was an Medic.,
in the highest calling in the military. I hope he sues the cops on a personal
level. Then goes after the FOP and the city.
