66 year old John Hardwick was arrested and beaten by the Danville (Kentucky) Police Department. Officer TJ Godbey punched him 6 times. As it turns out, this wasn’t Officer Godbey’s first time arresting and beating an elderly dementia patient.

Wtf?🤬there is absolutely no Justice at all in this country….This must be a part of this recent purging campaign of people to discriminate against or harass due to the current administration…Not that it was any different before. It's just more blatant and you can tell they feel perfectly fine and protected….. Horrible 😡
You know there are other incidents where violated someone's rights. Maybe recorded, maybe not. We just don't know about them. YET.
If someone is on drugs or drunk, and there not fighting you what gives you the right to do anything to him. I just don't get how the training could be sooo bad. It's just sad that ppl that are supposed to be protecting us is almost the ppls greatest enemy…
That is a Public Enemy.
Who else is sick of this BS "Stop Resisting" it called making yourself a witness. In reality it's a way for the Cops to use excessive force and Justify it.
Somethings not right with the cops report. This guy looks like he has been beat by a biker gang.
Imagine how this pos is at home!!
Why is the son letting his dad driving??? Hes just as dangerous as a drunk. Lots of wrong doing here by everyone.
This is a disgrace!!!!!
go check out that he had NO complaints agaist him big lie now we see this cover up
If the families would file lawsuits every time this happened, this wouldn't be happening anymore, money talks!
Why is a man with dementia driving? I do feel sorry for the old men but jeez, they should not be alone or in a car.
i signed it from canada
Police vs. The American people.
There's no possible way this tyrant pos can get away with this they have to be held accountable
How can a cop be this fucking dumb?
This cop needs to be charged with assault.
How can they keep getting away with this
What a scumbag. Beat up an old man and try to make it look like he can't stand up because he is drunk.
SAW THE FOIA RECORDS this wasnt in it at all why????????
THIS WASNT IN HIS JACKET AS A COMPLAINT ANOTHER NEWS STORY SHOWED ALL HIS JACKET IN PREVIOUS JOBS NO COMPLAINTS FILED SO WHOS COVERING THIS GUY UP?
A dozen years ago an elderly man crashed into my neighbors house with his beautiful vehicle..(single car accident).. I got to him in minutes.. an officer shortly arrived after i.. cop approaching could hear me say.. " sir shut off ur car..you can't backup.. car doesn't have back axle anymore ".. (9:30am).. cop said " great another drunk".. I turned and told him.. he's having a medical emergency and presently is in shock " my job dealing with the public on Railroad taught us how to recognize shock " police doesn't receive training?.. he called Ambulance and said thanks for helping.. I would hate to think about how it would have went.. if I wasn't there..😢
Why do someone with dementia have a license?
These guys psychos all their life or do they just get that way while on the job?
OMG psychopath beating up on frail older men. What a POS.
It is like this officer can not comprehend that there is any other cause of altered mental status besides alcohol. He is a hammer, one of those kids toy hammers trying to slam every peg through the round hole regardless of its shape
Looks like this guy was bullied as a kid and now has the law to be able to bully the weak and get away with it.
They need to legislate a "Dementia Patient Protection Act" to protect these individuals from being harmed by anyone including police officers.
CONSTABLE GODBEY, ALWAYS REMEMBER, YOU WILL NEVER BE A CONSTABLE ALL YOUR LIFE… EVERY DAY YOU GET OLDER… YOU MAY FORGET WHAT YOU DID DURING YOUR CAREER… BUT FAMILIES MEMBERS ALWAYS REMEMBER… WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND
Where do they find these psychopathic cops?
Someone should report this to President Donald Trump for legal action. This has to stop immediately.😡
The prosecutor should be called out . Enough video evidence is available to bring charges against Officer Godbey.
