In July of last year. The man, Peter McFarland was treated by paramedics at his home after a fall, then, a pair of Sheriff’s Deputies entered the house and insisted that McFarland come to the hospital with them. Since the Sheriff’s Department, as always Defending Their Own Pigs, doesn’t want to disclose even now what the reason the Wannabee Gestapo wanted him to go to a hospital rather than remaining at home, the reasons are “unclear”. Meaning, the PIGS made a command decision and as usual over-reacted when somebody refused their Imperial Storm Trooper Orders.
So they knocked the 64 year old man to the floor and tasered him 4 times. The one they were so “concerned” about his injuries. Just not concerned enough to accept a lowly CIVILIAN not Instantly Obeying Their Torture Freak Coward Orders. I would bet, and probably be right, that the PIGS took videos of it to jack off to them later. It’s the Policeman Way, taser and other use-of-force videos are like porn to Cops.
They charged him with disobeying a policeman and resisting arrest, both charges later dropped. But not before they got their sick giggles from tasering somebody who was helpless. This was in Woodacre, right around the bay from where the Oakland Transit PIGS murdered Oscar Grant.
