This looks brutal and completely unjustified, a naked, bound man in a spit hood and foil blanket getting roughed up in the back of a police van. But what exactly was the “speech crime” allegation here? Door kicked in at night over social media posts? Any more context on why he was stripped and restrained like this before the beating? Police bodycam or not, this needs full investigation and answers, not just “he didn’t comply.” Trust in policing is already shot, videos like this make it worse.
This police bodycam video was banned within 24 hours after mass reporting by police.
It shows police trying to beat a man to death in the back of their van after a speech-crime allegation.
