Cops Beat Down Another Cop's Son. Then Falsify Reports

This was in Newark, NJ. The kid that took the beating was 15.

Note, at about 1:43, the operator of the surveillance video camera knowlingly stops recording the cop's unnecessary and illegal assault by zooming out and panning the camera to the right.

so it's time to buy stock in Sanofi-Aventis.

The kid removed himself from the scene and called his dad. It's going to be really hard to make an assault on the police out of that. However, it's a good thing there is third party video.

Two cops need to be taken off the street.

he should have been brought up on charges. This kind of shit should not be left unpunished. imo

Do we know what the outcome was? This video was posted to youtube in 2010.
