Author Topic: Cop Tases handcuffed girl in back, now braindead! (Read 27468 times)

The Florida Highway Patrol have cleared 267-pound Trooper Daniel Cole of wrongdoing and have released a disturbing dash cam video that captured him tasing a 100 pound, 20 year old handcuffed girl in the back as she fled. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement determined Trooper Daniel Cole's "use of force" was justified when he tased the woman last September at the FHP Pinellas Park Substation and cleared him of wrongdoing. The fleeing woman, Danielle Maudsley, 20, suffered severe brain damage after hitting her head on the concrete and has been in a persistent vegetative state ever since.
The video shows Maudsley fleeing a back door of the substation with Cole following closely behind

Maudsley's mother said the trooper should have used other means to stop her daughter from fleeing. "He was right behind her. He could've reached out," Maudsley said. "It was unnecessary." The mother hired defense attorney Kevin Haylsett, who put FHP on notice for a lawsuit. Hayslett said Cole violated FHP's taser policy which states: "Fleeing cannot be the sole reason for the deployment." "When you shoot someone in the back, and they're running away, all that force -- as you saw when Danielle's head hit the concrete -- that's why they don't allow you to do that, because you can have horrible tragedies like this," Hayslett said.

Fuck that fat fucken piece of shit cop. He was to fat to catch her so he tases her

It was over a misdamenor. Now she's braindead for the rest of her life. Cops aren't suppose to use tasers for someone who is fleeing. She's 20 years old, kids do stupid things. She mine as well be dead now!

She was handcuffed, the fat fuck knew she would smash her head and would be unable to break her fall. He also clearly violated the taser policy. Whatever the girl did, I hope she gets a decent settlement.

The cop should be publicly executed.

The cop should be tasered daily for the rest of his life. All fat people should be, btw...

He could have grabbed her from that distance.

I hate cops, that said, in the old days, I wanted to be a cop. Now, I hate them and I have never had a ticket or any violation. Why was the girl running away from authority anyway? Kids and some people dont respect authority or the law, they would steal from you and kill you if they could get away with it. Thats why I'm a getbigger, they stay the fuck away.

what does weight have to do with it? I could understand if he was restraining her and she broke free. Then it would reflect his incompetence since he has the size and strength advantage. Also, why does the article refer to the 20 year old as a "girl" when she is legally an adult?

well there you have it. The woman broke the law, was caught, then broke another law by trying to escape, and unfortunately suffered the consequences of her actions. No one could have predicted she would end up brain dead. This was a freak accident if anything.

you left this piece of information out. From the same article:

An Office of Inspector General Investigation Unit report states: "Although the FHP policy on Electronic Control Devices states that a member should not use the device on a handcuffed prisoner, it also provides that there may be situations that conflict with this policy."

The report goes on to state: "In this situation, Maudsley ... removed one of her handcuffs while in the back of Cole's patrol car, and moved her handcuffs from behind her back, to in front of her body, as she attempted to flee the FHP Station. In addition, Maudsley was running towards US Highway 19 which is a high volume road."

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement conducted an independent review of the incident," FHP spokesperson Sgt. Steve Gaskins said. "Their investigation found that the trooper's actions were legal and within the scope of his duties.

In the report, Cole said he chose to use the taser because he "felt she was more susceptible to being injured if he attempted to tackle her." Cole weighs approximately 267 pounds."

Very confused as to how the use of force was justified in this one... Seems it would be akin to shooting a fleeing subject in the back.

I have no doubt that cops in USA have also been good people and respectable professionals in the past.

It's sad what they seem to be today. All this excessive violence we here too often.... what changed

Be it whatever, I hope that never comes here.
