An Arkansas state trooper who slammed an 18-year-old woman to the ground and punched her in the face during a traffic stop is now facing public outcry and calls for an investigation over his use of force.

I hate all this hyperbole. Should he get years behind bars for doing horrible things while in a position of authority? Yes, absolutely.
Life without parole? This isn’t even a murder.
Pretty much all sentences should be lower in America.
Personally I think the people tasked with upholding and enforcing the law should be held to a higher standard and face much strickter penalties when they break those laws.
I agree. That’s still not life in prison.
nope totally ok with police abusing powers being charged with life in prison
they can have parole with the victim oking it
Plus lifetime disqualification from working in law enforcement. Many states do have registries of who is and is not qualified to work in law enforcement but they’re each for their own state since the rules vary between states. A registry of those banned for misconduct needs to be federal and enforced so someone banned in one state can’t be hired in another state or by the federal government.
He abused his powers in such a way to abduct a young woman, create a situation she can’t fight back, slammed her on the ground, talked shit while punching her in the face.
Life in prison isnt hyperbole. The family should sue for everything he has and if his state has the death penalty I’d be perfectly happy with the firing squad, hanging, lethal injection, etc.
I would rather my taxes not be used to feed and house this piece of shit for the rest of his life.
At the same time, I don’t want the state to make decisions about executing citizens. The world is better with fewer shitheads in it, but I don’t trust this justice system to accurately determine who should be put to death.
Mob justice it is.
This is the footage that was caught.
We shouldn’t punish people for hypothetical crimes either though.
