Police were giving Kersh a ticket for drinking on the corner of 79th and Cottage Grove Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. The officer who performed the body slam, Jerald Williams, is an MMA fighter. Kersh who suffers from schizophrenia, was initially charged with aggravated battery of peace officer, misdemeanor counts of assault and resisting arrest, as well as a count of drinking alcohol in public. Officer Williams was relieved of his police duties. A second officer also had his police powers stripped.

That slam should be what happens to EVERY FRAUDITOR ON THE PLANET!!!
Hey, he didn't hit him. Throwing someone is NOT an attack, and he was keeping him from being a danger to himself and others. 90 Judo experts can testify to that.
Yeah that was bad, y'all.
In a rational society we’d just let cops finish people like this off.
Huh. It's almost as if it's against the law to spit in a LEO's eye or something.
Damn they didn’t get the dude an ambulance tho lol
You listen to this “people who annoy you†speak after he woke up? 😂 did he always talk like that or only after the slam? 🤣
That was awesome 😂 🤣
Maaan that was a crazy bodyslam. He got relieved of his police duties for that. I feel pretty bad for the old, schozophrenic drunk 🙁
I think he's dead
Totally unnecessary, if he spit rib shot then put him in cuffs done deal.
Is that officer, Conor McGregor? because he “bounced his head offf the fookinn canvasâ€
Throw that trash in the Chicago River…
Promote these officers!
They dont care if he died I don't think
Ha guy thought he was a badass until he spit and that’s when his world turned upside down lmfao priceless
Domestic Terrorist's!
I about lost it for 10 minutes straight watching them shove his unconscious carcass in the back of a cop car, and strapping him in.
Uh
They really got fired for thisðŸ˜
It’s funny how there’s always a handful of jackasses recording on there phones.
My Drill Sergeants used to hawk loogies onto my face as with all my other guys while screaming 80+ decibels in kissing distance. Cops cannot have ego's or GTFO.
"Officer Williams was relieved of his police duties." Probably a good thing. Regardless of the circumstances, a measured and deliberate response is always the right course for a police officer. This was not that.
These cops have lost all their humanity
Seems appropriate to me.
It's sad to think of all the GOOD police officers who shall have to suffer, and for many years, as a result of this horribly BAD police officer's actions. Even after such a BAD police officer is either fired (as in this case) or jailed, it's surprising to me that the police themselves don't take more immediate and better care of "weeding out" such abysmal officers. Take care of your own! – j q t –
He attacks the officer first so all is right nice takedown officer.
Damn! The most brutal takedown of all brutal takedowns. Permanent damage right there.
Minus one Bastard… Who cares..
he is dead
Justice to me
That's a good way to kill someone. Dumbass cop.
He dead if he landed his head perfect on the curb
I don't see the problem he assaults the officer when the other officer was on the other side of the car. He gets slammed for the spitting and the officers are in trouble. If he is so out of it where is his family. If you do not want the police taking care of your family then you should. No you looking for a pay day and that shit hole city will probably give it to you.
He got knocked the f out
Jussie Smollet is trying to figure out how to make this about him.
those are unmarked street cops.. Not to be fucked with
Spit in my mans eye then got slammed 💀
Ground Slam was super effective
The wild suspect has fainted
It’s a black cop so all procedures here are done correctly no matter what
Why was the officer punished?
“Nobody is hurtâ€
The guy unconscious: ðŸ˜
The cop was fired, so relax people. I KNOW CPD had to fire him, because a lawsuit by the perp was coming (and it did), but I hope he gets a job at a police department outside of Chicago: I don’t condone his action, but I understand. Kids, don’t spit in a cops face… you may get rag-dolled.
" Do you have any medical conditions?"
"A MASSIVE headache and a little bit of whiplash, that's all. But, I'mma beat yo ass!'".
Muppet.
K.O
slow it down no one is hurt, nothing to see here….
Is that part of the Chicago Police Department training? Use excessive force on a person half your weight?
This reminded me of my friend Aaron getting bodyslammed during a football game
