“No felony charges for SPD cop’s bone-breaking punch of
handcuffed woman”

Yet
another incident, where police have brutally injured someone. Miyekko
Durden-Bosley was seriously injured in the back of a police officer’s car. The
Police Department says that Miyekko was intoxicated and verbally abusive after
her arrest. The Police also say that Miyekko swore at Shepherd, the police
officer who punched her in the face, and kicked at him while being put into the
back of a police cruiser. Most people find this hard to believe due to recent
behavior of the Police. Miyekko happens to be African American too, and that is
yet another reason to not fully believe what the Police Department is saying.
At the moment, it appears that Shepherd will not be charged criminally. He is
on a paid administrative leave. He will not be charged unless the U.S. Attorney’s
Office accepts that Shepherd’s actions violate the law. Even the chief of the
Police Department said that what Shepherd had done was inappropriate, and
unacceptable, especially to a woman. The Washington State Patrol stated that
there is a chance that Miyekko’s kick was connected with Shepherd’s punch.
Shepherd showed no signs of injuries, making his case weaker. On the video,
which the public does not have access to, Shepherd is heard saying, “my jaw is
jacked”, although he showed no signs of injury.
It is
important to know that these so called Police Officers are committing more
crime than other people. This can be proved by their violent behavior and
unnecessary murders. The crazy part about this is that they are not getting
punished!
