UPDATE: Two years ago I posted body cam footage submitted by Janet, of Union County, Illinois, showing her son, who suffered from meth-induced mental illness, being tased by police officers. Imagine parents calling 911 for an ambulance, and instead, police officers, aware that they have a warrant for the son, show up instead, and without an ambulance. Instead of medical treatment, they use force. I just found out that the officer resigned and the civil lawsuit settled.

From what I have seen, it's really no wonder why he would flee from the sight of cops! And what about these cops just opening doors and entering?
It's very disturbing to see cops arrive when you call for medical assistance… All too often we need medical assistance because of cops! And how many times have we seen cops come and end up needing a hearse?
But I would add that how the caller articulated the call for service was lacking…
$58,000 was nowhere near enough. They deserve proper compensation. Not drops in the bucket.
When did “someone is going crazy and is a danger to society and themselves” become “oh it’s a mental health crisis”
The police in Oklahoma would put this man to sainthood.. these bastards need to held accountable .The people of Oklahoma judicial are demonic and a
The police officer's statement says that he raised and fired the taser. This suggests that he already had the taser in his hand when he approached the suspect. The suspect was unaware that there was a warrant out for him, he saw a big police officer pointing a taser at him walking towards him, he had every reason to run.
Drawing a taser or a handgun or placing a hand on a holstered handgun is a threat to use force and therefore a use of force.
A paramedic would have approached this patient asking if he felt alright and urging him to come with them to the ambulance to teh hospital where he could be helped. The police could have visited him in hospital once his condition was stabilized. There is a difference in approach.
The senior officer that approved replacing the sunglasses needs to retire, there is no place for him in public service!
America ,, Does your maniac police workers get some kind of huge Cash Bonus if they catch a warrant ?
I blame
1. the lawmakers for using such upside-down backwards ye olde english type of phrases
2. the police officers for not being able to read and understand aforementioned law
3. the dispacher, for doing what he wanted, when the request was for an ambulance
4. the taser
It's just a pity there's no human rights in that country! Cops are free to do as they please with no accountability. The citizens pick up the bill.
Seems the LAST thing we should ever do is call 911. If you can safely handle a situation, do it. If you can drive to a hospital, do it. Lastly, if ABSOLUTELY necessary, then call 911… but be prepared for the consequences
Cop says "not trying to be a dick", well yes, none of them have to "TRY" because ALL cops are DICKS, even the 'women' cops.
It’s impossible to empathise with a meth tweaker
Your cops are useless. No wonder they call the army in when ever there is an actual crime. I see why they just deal with the window tints now.
On point.
Thank you.
10 grand, should sued amblulance company.
"the government is only going to care if they know somebody is watching." This is very true.
Diabolic. Simply diabolic.
This is a good example of police and arrest, not protect and serve.
im not to far from union county that county sucks especially the sherriffs dept another one is or was williamson county
$58K isn’t nearly enough money for that !! $580K would be enough for a a settlement . I would have sued for $1 million and settled for maybe half that much .
Did you ever notice how winded all these cops are after very little physical work or any type of real physical altercation?
Its consistent on all the videos I watch of these type situations. They really need to lay off the donuts and get some exercise…..
I can not believe that a sheriff could allow this to happen. I hope his oposition in the next election cycle and has retained all videos and plays them to remind the citizens of the sitting sheriff's in action.
Hi, 911 is this the cops? send me an ambulance, ignore the felony warrant. I repeat that IGNORE THE FELONY WARRANT, AND JUST SEND AN AMBULANCE.
– yeah, yeah. I mean, nah.
rubbish country rubbish police
Ok I am by no means qualified as a medic or police.
But would it not have been best according to the info the dispatcher got , to send medics AND police?
you know. medics for the first response and police as backup if things get out of hand?
Yes they did have a warrant for his arrest but that can be handled later when he has stabilized.
A Ambulance 🤦♂🙄
The Cop should have been charged with assault with a weapon and made to pay the $58,000.
I mean no offense but drug addiction is not a disease no one pinned you down and forced it in your nose or body it’s your own fault
They didn't announce their presence by saying they were "the sheriffs office' you fraud? 8 hours 240k views and you lie through your fake teeth. 4:23
All weapons that are supposed to be non-lethal can be misused. Dogs, batons, tasers, fire arms, Active Denial System. The police officer was looking for any reason to use his stun gun. He was obviously ready and planned to stun the victim. Last resort weapons are not for first response without a valid reason. What is the reason here? There was none.
6 months ago I would recommend you to my brother he's a believer
This is why if someone is having a medical emergency you have to take them to the hospital yourself.
They shouldn't have settled for anything less than a Billion $'s
Ffs he needed a medical help , so what was a cop going to help with , as he is no doctor,
Sue everyone that's is involved & the lying dispatcher 😮
so why does he open the door and enter ?
I'l bet you they fabricated the warrent after the incident. It's more likely they listened to the radio chatter from teh ambulence service and licked their chops thinking about all the shit they were about to stir. Unbeleivable,, deliberately showing up to a mental health crisis and immediately escalating to a taser in the back. They ain't gunna stop doing this until cops start receiving some street justice.
I find it funny how this cop has the audacity to ask for compensation for his stupid ass glasses when there's always innocent people getting their cars totalled bcuz of high speed chases and they don't pay them people for the damage they cause to their vehicles
