Two questions: 1. Why, after over 25 years of presumably blameless service, did this sergeant suddenly ‘flip’? Or, 2. was this in fact NOT the first time the sergeant had abused a prisoner, just the first time he was caught? His superiors need to find the answers.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Some ppl do a professional job and then flip one day after not dealing with overwhelming stress situation, others are and always were an unprofessional p.os. and overall shitty person
An TENN retired sheriffs captain bragged about how many criminals he whipped while restrained in a restraint chair, He told that on one occasion that he punched, kicked, and pepper-sprayed for three days, and trustees were ordered by the sheriff to mop up the blood and keep their damn mouth shut,
Do you really want rogue cops marauding across the countryside, with no pension check to stay home and get drunk on? Let us have our pensions! Consider the alternative.
So he could have been charged with a felony if he would have just beaten him a LITTLE more!! WOW!! Look at the man! He hit his head on the corner of the cement bed, had hair torn from his scalp and a cut above the eye, which required stitches and all done while his hands were handcuffed behind his back!! How much more injury was required to warrant felony charges…..his death?!? Also, I find it hard to believe that the officer has been an officer for 21 years and had never had an incident like this. I think it’s probably more accurate to say he just never had been caught before, or reported. Things like this, especially since it was unprovoked, don’t just happen out of the blue, meaning it’s most likely never just a one off (meaning, it happened one time). Most likely, the officer who QUIT, will never do a day behind bars!! It’s so WRONG!!
Controlling yourself is vital when you put on a uniform. Telling the truth is equally vital. This deputy corrections officer did neither and deserves what he gets. People are human and get angry as I'm sure he was with all of the cell loud banging commotion however it does not excuse his follow-up behavior.
I hope he gets what's just and fair , unlike what he dishes out on a handcuffed human, but the cop prob get a charge dropped and other lowered and walks with misdemeanor? I hope not cause he will work in a town near you soon ,even before trial
Sheriff...take big pride in what you did. GOOD police NEED to be dealing with the BAD police this way. Right is right, wrong is wrong. GOOD police and policing will prevail. GOOD police have sssooo much to be proud of and the public are sssooo proud of those GOOD police.
I find it hard to believe that this kind of abuse can be and is apparently going to be classified as a misdemeanor. The prisoner had his hands cuffed behind his back and was not able to protect himself against his aggressor. This POS officer pushed him causing him to fall and hit his head against concrete, proceeded to slapping and then punching him which resulted a gash to his head and if that wasn't enough the cop rips out his hair. Misdemeanor? That's some f'ed up BS.
Unfortunately this happens all too often, people are just so happy to get released that they never say anything about it... alot of times the jail will keep the prisoner in protective custody so they can't have contact with anyone until the bruising heals..
Thank you Sherrif for your concerns over this matter, you’re a blessing to the department. Shedding a light over the inhuman treatment of this inmate is heart felt
This is a well spoken man who articulated the issues that of Police and why this happened. Love it when he said You cant train stupid. ESPECIALLY when he said he would have fired him but he resigned. Any one can tell he is hurt by this, he is a good one. God bless
It is about time the code of silence is lifted, the more of these kind of accountability that take place then and only them the good police will get the respect and trust from the people they serve, this policeman record of 25 years should be under investigation, keep up the good work my weeding out the bad ones, and finally these police should not get their pension from the force.
Very glad to have full transparency. Working with inmates is a very hard job... give them all credit. The bad ones need to be held accountable as you are doing. Thank you.
They should be grateful that they are not jailed in a third world country. People get tired with the bs. Some ppl will always take advantage of the system.
I agree. They break laws and still want their right. Behave yourself in society and you hopefully don't have to go to jail. The ppl who break the laws and are proven truly guilty. Get no special treatment. This is jail not a Vacation resort.
21 years as an officer. This can't be the first thing he's done like this. Where I live they chain people to a metal loop in the floor, naked, if someone beats on the door. 😔 Does the cell have audio recordings? Its good that you hold officers accountable. I hope his whole career is investigated.
Wow! Sent chills through my body! I'm not a resident, but then you to this Department for being transparent and taking the steps to rid the bad ones!!! 🥰

How on Earth was this handled "properly"? The officer was allowed to quit, first! Not charged Immediately! And, How is this Not A Feloney? They let this guy off easy! Blueline Badness!!! Its Bull×hit!!
Thank you lieutenant Campbell for doing what was right. I know it's not easy for an officer to tell the truth or do what is right without repercussion from their superiors or other officers. You have gained my respect and I know now that there are some officers out there that honor their oath, thank you. I hope that someday soon officers honoring their oath will become the normal. And dirty policing will actually be considered wrong by everyone. I know policing isn't easy because I came from a family of officers. I knew that if I followed in the family tradition that I would have eventually ended up in jail. So I chose construction. So all the corrupt arrogant egotistical officers that might stumble across this, quit before you shoot somebody in the back because you don't like what they said.
On behalf of all the supporters Sir ur willingness to receive, to display, ur focus and approach for accountability is commended on so many levels n so many ways "if any officer thinks he's above the law we're sendn a message that we're not playn" Highly appreciated this is affirmative action by action not just word of mouth
It's not "wrong", what he did. It's CRIMINAL! Sir, it's great to see you are beginning changing the culture in the police department from what it's always been, which was what emboldened this racist veteran of 25 years to think he could get away with like like he obviously was in the 25 years.
As horrible as the incident is, it's refreshing to see them admit it right away and arrest the felon officer. Progress. Very nice to see such a well-presented and transparent press conference. Kudos to the officer who held it.
There's always a few of those still doing these horrible things to people behind the badge and leaves doubt for people who come in contact with law enforcement. Thank you for holding your officers accountable.
This occurred while the detainee was handcuffed with his hands behind his back and was totally defenseless. Considering what was done to him, he is lucky he didn't suffer a permanent brain injury, or even death. I just can't understand why there is no felony charges for the battery where physical harm occurred because of it, where lie'ing on the report didn't. Both charges should have been felonies, with the battery charge upgraded because the detainee was handcuffed and totally defenceless. So much for justice and accountability...
I really hate to see this. Yeah, this deputy deserves to be charged and hitting a guy in cuffs? What's wrong with the guy? The other deputy should have said something sooner.
Here in Arizona we lost a Detention Officer at the hands of an inmate that shoved the officer backwards in the same manner, the Officer never regained consciousness and died of the injury where the back of his head hit the concrete floor. The inmate was charged with murder, and aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer. It is very similar to this case, a strike to the back of the head can be fatal. Once more the inmate was restrained. We were taught once restraints are on (handcuffs) you can not strike the inmate but only use means to control the inmate and further restrain him or her. The sergeant should be facing aggravated assault charges for this!!
Pinellas county sheriff's office is one of so many honests Sheriff's departments in our country and they are a roll model for all police departments. We are all proud of you guys, good job.
Thank you so much for your honesty it’s unfortunate that a lot of the stuff goes on without being heard, this should be a lesson learned for those correctional officers or police officers FBI’s etc. to not engage in this sort of behavior. It is so sad so so sad these officers that do such atrocities are no different than a bad criminal out in the streets!! that’s how I look at them ….like a bad criminal!! they’re no different , they took that badge way too far and they think that they’re above the law ( entitlement), Thank you so much officer for putting the truth out there I’m sure there’s a lot of police officers that are pissed off at you for not sticking up for your own. I certainly wouldn’t want to stick up for somebody that maliciously beat somebody up I don’t give a crap what position they were in wrong is wrong and that’s it. Thank you and may God bless you as I know he will.
This police chief seems to be doing the right thing by the community and starting to clean up the corruption within the police culture brutalizing citizens and inmates. Other cities across America need to take note of this police chiefs positive, progressive change with policing.
Pinellas County Sheriff needs to be commended for his actions for bringing this episode to light usually police dept. sweep these episodes under the carpet I applaud this man this is how police should conduct themselves he has my respect and I'm sure the respect of the people he protects and serves.
There should be a National Data Base so police officers CANNOT go to another state and join another police department, security guard, or any other position of armed position.
that's why every inch of jails should have cameras and people can't be set against each other by the guards. wonder how many things he has covered up in the past .
This is amazing, more and more officers are being held accountable for their wickedness. If you have anger issues a police officer is not the job for you.
So the man was cuffed behind his back while in a locked cell? How is he supposed to go to the bathroom, wipe his nose etc? THIS IS INHUMANE TREATMENT!! UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!
It’s anger management there under Stress and go off it’s not training, pray for our Law enforcement we need them. Prayers for Mr Johnson he didn’t deserve that Treatment.
They know what the job description is when they apply for it, so that is no excuse for this officer to beat on a person who he has already restrained!!!
Knight looks fairly old. How long did he work there? This was a violent way to treat a prisoner. His anger could stem from other reasons. What's his job performance record?
Sounds to me like the guy snapped. Let's not forget that the inmate was acting like a fool, yelling and kicking the door. Hearing all that ruckus probably pushed an already stressed out sergeant over the edge.
Massive respect to sheriff Bob gualtieri for been a man and standing up there against one of he's own and admitting he was simply wrong regardless of what this inmate did or has done he was handcuffed behind he's back and simply defenceless well done sheriff Bob gualtieri 👍👍👌👌🙏🙏
I have a question I don't know if anybody can rationally answer it but why is it if I commit that crime that the deputy did my bond would be 10 to 15,000 dollars but a cop does it or a deputy does it and they get a ridiculously low Bond and they're never put into population while they wait for a bondsman somebody answer why
@@lrmgrl I disagree. After worried about the safety and security of the institution they don't need to have bad cops on staff. But maybe just maybe if one or two of these bad cops was put in general population and got their ass kicked up over their shoulders and wore their ass as a hat for a little while it take a little bit of starch out of them and they wouldn't be bad cops
Notice they didn't begin the "Criminal Investigation" until after the deputy resigned. Guess they won't do a criminal investigation on an active deputy????
with that kind of behavior there is no way it was the first time he had abused his power and assaulted someone.. yet still he made it to sgt.. if not on camera it would most likely have when nowhere.. apparently some of his buddies didnt like him or were afraid they were going to get in trouble too if they didnt speak up
Good job and honestly a lot of officers abuse inmates in prison and now other officers are starting to report these bad apples because it isn't right. I understand some inmates are disrespectful and violent, but this wasn't the case. This was abuse of power.

As much as we would like to take their pension we have to realize that taking money that was earned is simply not allowed. That is theft.

No accountability
@Pharoah Young well your right. The guilty party should be charged. And the very least they shouldn't be allowed to be a police officer anywhere!
Not more training,we don't need people like well said,I tell people every day that more training wont stop nothing, ..
Bullshit if they could have covered it up those wicked ass demons would have !!
They accuse him but the evidence see it in the 🖼️ are diferent! If he get a State attorney like AYALA HE BE IN REAL TROUBLE!!
"we do not need more training, we just need less people like him" brilliant words.
I agree. This is how law enforcement officers should speak.
I couldn't have said it any better.
We need both. This is my observation after a decade plus on the job!
Sounds like accountability
@ACathater training is them finessing the system. It's usually a bunch of em sitting around feasting and getting paid for jaw jacking.
Im sorry! How was this NOT an aggravated assult? The man was handcuffed and could have been killed! Shame on You! 'Blueline' Badness!
I agree. When you beat someone who is helpless, that needs to be a whole other criminal charge.

It’s anger management there under Stress and go off it’s not training, pray for our Law enforcement we need them. Prayers for Mr Johnson he didn’t deserve that Treatment.
They know what the job description is when they apply for it, so that is no excuse for this officer to beat on a person who he has already restrained!!!
@@gigterryjsaylessr.7533 definitely he didn’t deserve that it’s disgusting
Thank you for being fair with Justice... much respect
That Deputy is a coward. My God he was hand cuffed
Yep.... disgusting
Good lock Him up and treat him no different than any other criminal
Knight looks fairly old. How long did he work there? This was a violent way to treat a prisoner. His anger could stem from other reasons. What's his job performance record?
A felony charge would be holding him accountable. A misdemeanor charge is NOT holding him accountable!!!
We have a mental health crisis in this country
Yes sir
Supervisor or not this is a poor excuse from law enforcement
My God, what a Coward.I hope the inmate was well cared for t SEEKS JUSTICE. JESUS WILL PREVAIL BROTHER. MUCH LOVE.
It should be a felony battery if the man received a cut from his being assaulted. Needing sutures to close an injury is not simple battery!
Sheriff’s damage control skills are pretty polished.
Yeah, just like his head!
@@neontetra1000 hahahaha
Sounds to me like the guy snapped. Let's not forget that the inmate was acting like a fool, yelling and kicking the door. Hearing all that ruckus probably pushed an already stressed out sergeant over the edge.
What sucks is there’s more like him out there.
Yes, it makes the good ones look bad. No one deserves this treatment..
You can’t train against stupid, one of the best quotes and honest statements that I’ve heard!
Thank God for camera 📸.
It's good that the lieutenant did the right thing. We need more officers like her. Great job!
Im not a fan of cop at all but this guy and the chief of polk county are real good guys from what I'm hearing. They need this.
Put them in that same Detention Center
Massive respect to sheriff Bob gualtieri for been a man and standing up there against one of he's own and admitting he was simply wrong regardless of what this inmate did or has done he was handcuffed behind he's back and simply defenceless well done sheriff Bob gualtieri 👍👍👌👌🙏🙏
Prison officer's need body cameras!
Don't see that often a department that go by the book 🙌🏾
BLESS YOU SIR FOR YOUR HONESTY I LOVE A REAL POLICE OF THE LAW 🙏🏼🙏🏽💯I PRAY FOR MANY MORE OFFICER'S LIKE THIS OFFICER 💪🏽💪🏼✔️💯
I have a question I don't know if anybody can rationally answer it but why is it if I commit that crime that the deputy did my bond would be 10 to 15,000 dollars but a cop does it or a deputy does it and they get a ridiculously low Bond and they're never put into population while they wait for a bondsman somebody answer why
You know why
Bail amount is decided by Judge and they can't be put into "general population" for safety and security of the institution.
@@leebraddock8624 well maybe if one or two bad cops got their ass kicked up over their shoulders they wouldn't be bad cops anymore
@@lrmgrl those charges have pre set bail amounts
@@lrmgrl I disagree. After worried about the safety and security of the institution they don't need to have bad cops on staff. But maybe just maybe if one or two of these bad cops was put in general population and got their ass kicked up over their shoulders and wore their ass as a hat for a little while it take a little bit of starch out of them and they wouldn't be bad cops
I thank you sir for doing the right thing and being honest
Notice they didn't begin the "Criminal Investigation" until after the deputy resigned. Guess they won't do a criminal investigation on an active deputy????
He is an awesome sheriff!! Judd has to learn from him! Thank you sir!
Pass the George Floyd Justice Act to handle these types of behaviors. Thank goodness they took this matter seriously. Law suit coming I’m sure.
George Floyd got justice.
This is leadership
with that kind of behavior there is no way it was the first time he had abused his power and assaulted someone.. yet still he made it to sgt.. if not on camera it would most likely have when nowhere.. apparently some of his buddies didnt like him or were afraid they were going to get in trouble too if they didnt speak up
Wonderful! Glad he was charged!
Well done, who ever this man is? He's a hero for doing what is right!. 👏👍
Thank you for your leadership and honesty.
Good job and honestly a lot of officers abuse inmates in prison and now other officers are starting to report these bad apples because it isn't right. I understand some inmates are disrespectful and violent, but this wasn't the case. This was abuse of power.
Acting like he was really distraught over the incident was difficult acting but he did well.
