Hiline, We could never imagine you pushing a Defender to abuse.

Even if it was they would have a hard time proving it.

Ron haven;t seen it, not defending them, but have some good mates working over there in various areas, from deputy sherrifs to city cops. While it may seem strange to us, there rules of engagement are slightly different , because of the unpredicable nature of their customers, thats why they are allowed to handcuff for seemingly innocuous things,
and probably the overuse of less than lethal force.
things that if they happened over here , would have every civil libertarian group across the country up in arms.
Rodney King is a good example, not too many know the true story of why they did what they did, only saw the horrific footage of the repeated baton strikes and i think he was zapped too. It was all about the mighty scare they had over there at the time regarding PCP users, where you can be contaminated just be getting the persons sweat on you. Nobody wanted to touch him.
