Cop Wiley Willis Beats Up Defenseless Handcuffed Woman
Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 02:37 PM by shance
The physical battery and abuse by police against women and children (and any other defenseless person) must stop.

I would also be interested to know more information on cop Wiley Willis and a picture.

Have you noticed they give all the information on the victim and yet Wiley Willis walks slithers away pretty quietly?

Where's a picture of cop Wiley Willis with the blood on his hands from Angela's face?









Thug Cop Wiley Willis Beats Up Defenseless Handcuffed Woman
Claims victim who ended up with two black eyes in a pool of her own blood "fell over"


Shocking police station video of an argumentative woman who ended up unconscious in a pool of her own blood with two black eyes, a broken nose and broken teeth did not lead to criminal charges against the cop after officials claimed the woman "fell over."

Quite how Angela Garbarino received two black eyes, a broken nose, broken teeth and blood pouring from her head after a "slip and fall" is not quite explained by officials or ABC News, who ran with the headline Police Brutality or Slip and Fall?

Below is a low quality You Tube version, the high quality ABC News version can be watched here.


The police are refusing to press criminal charges against the officer because "no one knows for sure what occurred." That's probably because this cowardly thug, Officer Wiley Willis, made sure his brutal assault wasn't recorded on camera.

If police arrived at a house where a handcuffed woman was lying unconscious in a pool of her own blood with two black eyes, a broken nose and broken teeth with a man standing nearby, who would the prime suspect be? Would the police refuse to arrest the man because no videotape of the incident took place or would they go with what every single piece of circumstantial evidence was screaming out had happened?


Comments posted in response to the ABC News story underscore how blatantly ridiculous the police's explanation and handling of the matter is.

- "What is most insulting is this: They haven't charged the officer because "no one knows for sure what happened". Crimes are committed each and every day that aren't videotaped and yet the suspects are arrested based on the best evidence available at the time. Why is he being treated any different? I AM a former police officer and can tell you this: in Ohio, for example, in domestic violence cases, we had a duty to arrest the obvious aggressor. Meaning this: if I showed up on scene and the man was fine and the woman had two black eyes and two busted teeth and was lying in a pool of her own blood, I didn't need a videotape of the incident occurring, I made the arrest of the male suspect. This officer is a disgrace to both the badge and to humanity in general. I say give him a taste of his own medicine, take him out behind the woodshed as they used to say."

- "Let's suppose my wife has black eyes, broken teeth, and is lying in a pool of her own blood when cops arrive. I say, "She fell down when she tried to leave the house." Do the cops: 1. Arrest me or 2. Let me go because, "No one really knows what happened". Cop should be in jail, now."

- "The only way a person can end up looking like that after a "fall" is if that fall was off a cliff!"

1. Not mentioned at Alex Jones' Prison Planet
The cop has been fired! Why no mention of that?

A Louisiana police officer was fired after a woman, who was pulled over on the suspicion of a DWI, ended up with two black eyes and bruises to her face while in police custody in November.


http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=4309643&page=1

Jones has a habit of stirring crap up and trying to make things fit his agenda. It seems that the proper things are being done in this case, the cop was fired and an investigation is on going.

4. OF course he should be fired. He almost beat the woman to death.
Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 04:00 PM by shance
I guess you missed her pool of blood. Take a look at the video.

And as far as we can see, the cover up is going as planned.

The Shreveport Police Department has stated to my knowledge that no charges will be brought against Wiley Willis, when he should be charged with attempted murder.

He most probably would have killed her if there had been no video.

What would also be important to know is the history of violent behavior in Wiley Willis's background.

What is his military background? What is his story and why is he essentially being protected from deserved scrutiny?

7. He shouldn't just be fired...
he should be charged with crimes. Let's see...how about assault under color of authority and aggravated assault, for starters.

2. They need probable cause - not proof.
The cop should be in jail.

3. I agree.
It appears to me that there is more than enough probable cause in this case. I have posted wait and see comments on a couple of police incidents in the last week or so. Not this time. Arrest him and make him post bail or rot in jail.

Regards, Mugu

19. One step closer to a fascist state
The Bush administration supports this type of police brutality because it helps keep the people "in line." People will be less likely to act out if they think the police will damn near kill them.

20. Here's the entire video on YouTube
There are 5 or 6 parts total and links can be seen on this YouTube Pt1 video. In the 2nd video, you can see the cop slam her against what look like lockers...in the 3rd video you can hear him beat her head against the wall twice...shortly thereafter he tries to force her into taking a breath test..something you have the right to refuse. also in the 3rd video you see him turn the camera back on...the part where he threw her to the floor has been erased. He's also breathing very heavily when he turns the camera back on. How can any supervisor possibly question what when on here?

23. And where is a picture of this monster Willis Wiley?
Why no picture of the abuser?

Why does the abuser get no picture.

Because he is white and he is/was a police officer?

21. abuse is not limited to women
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 02:32 AM by Skittles
how about that poor guy in a wheelchair who was dumped on the floor; it appears the problem of abuse of power is quite widespread.

22. True, however, the majority of abuse is targeted towards women and children.

27. Good question. There seems to have been a real influx of women
being assaulted.
