Bodycam video from a white Fort Worth police officer who was suspended for wrestling a black woman and her daughter to the ground appears to show the officer using his foot to push the 15-year-old girl into a police car.

The footage was provided to The Associated Press from attorneys representing Jacqueline Craig, who had called police to report that a neighbor choked her 7-year-old son for allegedly littering in his yard.

Also Thursday, Fort Worth police said they had dropped all charges against Craig and her 19-year-old daughter, Brea Hymond, who had recorded the interactions between Craig and Officer William Martin in a separate video they posted on Facebook. The police statement did not say whether charges had been dropped against Craig's 15-year-old daughter, Jacques Craig. The daughters were charged with resisting arrest and interfering with public duties. Jacqueline Craig was charged with resisting arrest, failure to identify herself as a fugitive and three outstanding traffic warrants.

The AP doesn't typically identify juveniles accused of crimes, but the family and the teen have spoken out publicly several times since the confrontation.

Police also said that the neighbor, Itamar Vardi, has been issued a citation for assault related to his initial contact with Craig's son. A message seeking comment from Craig's attorneys was not immediately returned, but they planned to hold a news conference later Thursday. The bodycam footage provided by Craig's attorneys also depicts Martin pushing Hymond's arms, which were handcuffed, above her head from behind when she refuses to answer his question. It also shows him pushing another young female who approaches the police car. Those two incidents along with the use of his foot to push the 15-year-old into the police car were cited in a letter from Police Chief Joel Fitzgerald to the city's Civil Service Commission explaining the finding that Martin had used excessive force in the situation and asking for his suspension.

This officer demonstrated the correct way to deal with low life Ghetto Trash.

With the possible exception that he may have been too patient.

Insane. Some people do not have the temperament to be police officers at all

[theblindguidedog]

Ridiculous, he arrested everyone except the guy who assaulted the 7 year old boy. What kind of police force do they have over there? Fucking arseholes as far as I can tell.

When skin is black. Some peopple tink that they can do everyting.. like video bich yelling why why. Look mirror. Black biches allways scream like hell

[Grimlyfe]

Although I agree that screaming bitches are annoying, the officer was being a fucking asshole in this one. If someone assaulted my kid I'd be pretty upset in that moment too not to mention having someone question my parenting. Seems like the officer escalated the situation by being an insolent smart ass. Then he tased the mom and the 15 year old who clearly was already getting in arrest position. The officer definitely needs some de escalation/emotional observation training.

Does not need to be an officer…period!

I have a feeling this guy is a racist, just by the way he treats the mother.

[mothmon]

She was definitely the mouthy, obnoxious, barely literate stereotype of the middle-aged female black angerball that we all hate but that cop has ZERO skills in how to de-escalate a situation. He probably deserves a good internal review and re-evaluation. Bad attitude (on both sides).

Stop sending law enforcement resources to the ghetto. Less controversy and more appreciation when the welfare brats beg for them back.
