North Carolina Teen Body-Slammed by Officer While Grabbing Snacks with Friends Receives $100K In Excessive Force Settlement

A North Carolina Man has settled his $100,000 excessive force lawsuit against police after being accused of drug possession and body-slammed by an officer.

Tony Scott Jr. of Durham, North Carolina, was a 16-year-old at the time of the incident that occurred on Jan. 23, 2019. Scott along with other high school students went to buy snacks from a convenience store across from their school during their lunch period.

Court documents alleged Durham Police Officer Michael McGlasson “responded to a call that someone was selling drugs inside the store.”

McGlasson’s body camera video captures the moment he enters the store filled with a group of teenagers. He walked toward Scott who is seen standing at the cash register. He was wearing what appears to be a letterman jacket with his last name stitched on the front. McGlasson asks him, “What are you up to?”

I hope your insurance rates increase tenfold and then increase exponentially and factorially from there. Along with every other municipality across the country, you should pay a price for weaponizing mad dogs and turning them loose upon society.

In their field of applicants. That's not likely since those guys all come from the same inbred pasture.

3. Cop is a liar to begin with. HE is the one who deserves to be body slammed and thrown in jail.

Cops put the public in danger by trying his bully tactics and then PULLED OUT A GUN.

Who is hiring these idiots? I also would love to see the cops job history.
