Eleven more current and former East Cleveland Police officers have been indicted for committing crimes, many violently assaulting members of the very community they were sworn to serve and protect.
EAST CLEVELAND, Ohio — Eleven more current and former East Cleveland Police officers have been indicted for committing crimes, including beating, kicking and violently assaulting members of the very community they were sworn to serve and protect.
The second video shows Officer Ian McInnes ordering a person to lie down on their stomach. The individual is on their knees, facing away from the officer when McInnes approaches from behind and kicks the person in the back, knocking them to the floor. The eighth video, which involves McInnes, Homan and Officer Laurice Mans, shows a man colliding with the squad car McInnes was driving. McInnes calls out over the radio that the man struck his vehicle, but O’Malley said that a longer version of the video more clearly shows that McInnes appeared to strike the man instead of avoiding him.
“I think to any casual observer, those videos are appalling and a poor reflection of policing within our community and obviously criminal conduct," O'Malley said.“I was appalled that we could be witnessing — witnessing a guy handcuffed and his head stomped, or witnessing a guy handcuffed and being tased while handcuffed repeatedly, which to me is a form of torture. And so certainly I was shaken. My next thoughts went to the victims of these incidents and how they’re doing.
