LA Cops Bodyslam Nurse in Arrest, Share Fist Bump Afterward
The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating two officers who were allegedly caught on surveillance camera slamming a nurse on the ground twice — and then fist bumping afterward — during a recent traffic stop. The two officers pulled over Michelle Jordan, 34, of Sunland, Aug. 21, for allegedly talking on her cell phone while driving in Tujunga, in northeast Los Angeles, the department said. Jordan pulled into the parking lot of a Del Taco restaurant and got out of her car to confront the officers, cops said. The taco joint's surveillance video appears to show the officers, both men, yanking the 5-foot-4 inch registered nurse from the open driver's seat and then slamming her on the ground to cuff her. The duo then yank Jordan to her feet and bring her to the patrol car, where they pat her down. Moments later, one of the cops slams the married mom to the ground a second time. After placing her in the cruiser's backseat, the two appear to share a celebratory fist-pound. Jordan was booked for resisting arrest and later released. Police Chief Charlie Beck said in a statement Tuesday that the video caused him "to have serious concerns about this use of force." "We will investigate this thoroughly and hold our officers accountable for their actions," Beck said, according to KABC-TV. The officers, whose names were not given, were placed on desk duty while the department investigated the alleged beatdown.   |

One day they will have a nurse looking after them when they're old and senile. They ask for help and none come.  Karma takes its time.

I'm usually pretty 'pro-police', but that just seemed ridiculously heavy handed and totally unnecessary  The LAPD seem to have a rather tainted history when it comes to this sort of thing.

She didn't signal when pulling into the parking space either. Was she drunk and disorderly? She doesn't appear to be. Maybe they asked for sexual favors. |

i guess they wanted to show her how it feels to potentially be in a car accident, due to being on her phone while driving. Job well done guys! *double fist bump*

Re: LA Cops Bodyslam Nurse in Arrest, Share Fist Bump Afterward
I bet when they found out she was a nurse they about shit themselves. I'm a nursing assistant and when I get pulled over if they ever even find out I work at a hospital they let me go. Not that it's right but officers usually have the utmost respect for hospital staff and vice versa. I hope she sues the pants off those idiots.
