A prisoner and he died !

wth is wrong with these guys ?? I can’t imagine them knowing they were on cam and going to get away with this .

 They now risk prison , loss of pension etc …

 For what ???

Yeah, I saw that on  X yesterday; pretty messed up.  Having said that, I am VERY much a law and order guy and advocate  harsh sentences be meted out to offenders committing violent crimes, but it appears that these guys may have went a bit overboard in their attempts to get him to comply .

Just saw the video. They will all be fired along with the other guys in the room watching. I appreciate what they do and it's a hard job. You can't take things into your own hands. Just watched "lioness" on Par plus. The scene when they beat up the undercover agent reminded me of this. These guys went Hollywood for real.

Yea me too ,, but it didn’t look like he was resisting at all

He was cuffed behind his back ,,, don't these officers realize they will probably do jail time , lose pensions , lose jobs …

 They have to know they are not going to get away with this
