凤凰城警察出拳,电击聋哑脑瘫黑人男子

2024-10-16 09:21 -ABC  -  272515

  亚利桑那州一名残疾黑人男子面临多项指控,此前两名凤凰城警察对他拳打脚踢,并用电击枪电击他。耳聋且患有脑瘫的泰伦·麦卡尔平(Tyron McAlpin)面临重罪袭击和拒捕的指控。

  这起发生在8月19日的事件被监控录像和警方随身携带的摄像机拍了下来。警官们说,他们正在调查附近K区的一起袭击事件,麦卡尔平符合一名旁观者对嫌疑人的描述。然而,最初对嫌疑人的描述是针对一名在商店制造骚乱的白人男子。他们还声称,当他们接近麦卡尔平时,他变得好斗并试图逃跑。

  麦卡尔平的律师表示,视频显示的情况并非如此。

  在视频中,可以看到警察将车停在麦卡尔平面前,命令他趴在地上。他似乎没有立即服从。视频显示,警察击打他的头部10次,并用电击枪电击他4次,同时大喊“把手放在背后”。麦卡尔平的律师说,他不知道发生了什么,也听不到命令。

  该部门官员的一个工会认为,如果警车开过来,穿制服的警察靠近,人们应该知道该怎么做,警察不得不强迫麦卡尔平服从,而不知道他当时是聋子。工会还表示,麦卡尔平采取了战斗姿态,并咬了警察。

  凤凰城执法协会主席达雷尔·克里普莱恩说:“在审查了所有提交的证据后,马里科帕县高级法院专员尼克·萨科内确定,由于嫌疑人对警察的行为,有足够的证据对他提出重罪指控。”马里科帕县法官裁定逮捕有可能的原因,也是指控的原因。

  该部门表示,他们支持警察,并建议人们在审查所有证据之前避免对事件做出判断,而不是完全专注于片段的摘录。警察部门正在调查这次逮捕。

  这一事件发生在司法部6月份发布一份报告后,该报告认为凤凰城警察局从事侵犯公民权利的活动包括对残疾人的种族歧视和偏见。他们的调查发现,该部门的政策、培训、监督和问责制度存在“系统性问题”,这些问题“持续存在”了多年。

  在凤凰城警方被投诉过度使用武力后,DOJ于2021年8月开始调查。部门说的欢迎这项调查帮助他们了解如何更好地为社区服务。

  Phoenix police officers punch, shock deaf Black man with cerebral palsy

  A disabled Black man in Arizona faces multiple charges after a pair of Phoenix police officers punched him and shocked him with a stun gun. Tyron McAlpin, who is deaf and has cerebral palsy, faces charges of felony assault and resisting arrest.

  The incident, which took place on Aug. 19, was captured on both surveillance video and police body-worn camera. The officers said they were investigating an assault at a nearby Circle K and McAlpin fit the description of the suspect given by a bystander. However, the original description of the suspect was for a white man who had been creating a disturbance in the store. They also claimed that McAlpin became combative and tried to run when they approached him.

  McAlpin's lawyers said the video shows otherwise.

  In the video, police are seen pulling up to McAlpin and ordering him down to the ground. He doesn't appear to immediately comply. The video then shows the officers punching him 10 times in the head and shocking him with a stun gun four times while yelling "Get your hands behind your back." McAlpin's attorney said he didn't know what was going on and could not hear the commands.

  A union for the department’s officers argues that people should know what to do if a police car comes up and uniformed officers approach and that the officers had to force McAlpin to comply not knowing he was deaf at the time. The union also said McAlpin took a fighting stance and bit the officers.

  "After reviewing all evidence presented, Maricopa County Superior Court Commissioner Nick Saccone determined there was sufficient evidence for the felony charges against the suspect due to his actions against the officers," Phoenix Law Enforcement Association President Darrell Kriplean said. A Maricopa County judge has ruled there was probable cause for the arrest and is cause for the charges.

  The department said it stood behind the officers and suggested people avoid making judgments about the incident until all the evidence is reviewed rather than focusing entirely on an excerpt of the footage. The police department is investigating the arrest.

  The incident came after the Department of Justice in June released a report concluding that the Phoenix Police Departmentengaged in civil rights violationsincluding racial discrimination and bias against the disabled. Their investigation found "systemic problems" within the department's policies, training, supervision and accountability systems that were "perpetuated" for years.

  The DOJ opened its investigation in August 2021 after complaints about use of excessive force among Phoenix police. The department said itwelcomed this inquiryto help them understand how they can better serve the community.
