The issue isn’t training, it’s integrity and accountability/punishment (or lack thereof). Cops act the way they do because they (correctly) believe that nothing will happen to them.
Actually the issue is training, A 2.0 GPA, well below the average, and 16 weeks of training is all you need to be a police officer in most states. The government has actually passed rulings that law enforcement can deny somebody for being too smart, the national average IQ score for police nationally was 21 to 22, the equivalent of a 104 IQ. It takes longer to become a beautician, than it does to be a leo. How much knowledge of law does a kid straight out of high school have?
Not in this case, it was training learning to apply techniques at the proper time is the whole issue.. he didn’t need to be handcuffed, but we also didn’t see the whole video… he might’ve been moving around erratically.. because he’s angry about whatever.. cops misinterpreted it.. cops don’t like when you make jerky movements.. and that usually happens when people are upset about something else.. but yeah, I’ve never been handcuffed in my life, even though I was swatted.. but I don’t make jerky movements when the cops are around me I’m pretty still, and I keep my hands up but not over my head but always within view and calm slow movements..
You hit on something there that really pisses me off. Let me say, unequivocally I don't give a HOT DAMN about officer safety, just like they don't give a hot damn about mine. That term should never ever leave their lips while they are out on the streets. They try and use that to break all manner of law.
So... The father was emotional because his daughter was missing... AND YOU RESTRAIN THE DAD IN CUFFS... How could that be departmental policy, if the father was not violent????
Officer safety trumps everything, this is something the are trained to do so training is just going to reinforce the whole officer safety BS! Its just like there training to yell stop resisting when cuffing someone while their beating the individual!
Cops perceive any strong emotion displayed by a black person as being a threat. That's the real institutional racism. Being worried about your kidnapped daughter is not a crime. The cops went back to the station congratulating themselves for their generosity because they didn't arrest dad for obstruction of police operations or some other bullshit charge. The truth is they injured a worried father who looked very much in control. Arizona police are on the internet all the time for shoddy police work and violations of civil rights. As a state, they need to address what is being taught to recruits in their academies and by training officers.
Yeah but it wasn’t this Supreme Court that created it. That happened I believe all the way back in the 60s either way it’s got to go. The single worst legal Doctrine ever created
If that's the policy, the policy is illegal. They have no right to handcuff anyone who is not a suspect and who is not a direct threat. Officer safety has to be more than how the officers feels. That was illegal detainment.
@writerconsidered if they are that worried about their safety they shouldn't be cops..like joining the army and being worried your life is In danger...find another line of work..
Completely unnecessary to handcuff him and abusive to put him on the ground when he’s submitting while standing. Unconscionable that he lost his job over these overly aggressive police actions.

They'll never give it up. It's too easy for them to use it. The cops with actual sensitivity to citizens often are the ones that leave law enforcement. You forgot, "At the end of the day....".
I am a child of a former police officer. You have no say over what is considered crap and what’s considered safety for them. I detest people like you who get their information from tik tok and twitter and you think you know how police should conduct themselves. Please sit down and STF UP!
Wow, no one violated policy yet laws were broken. That kind of sums it all up with what's wrong with law enforcement. Both officers should be criminally charged and prosecuted.
Typical of Mesa PD, Mesa PD is worse than Phoenix PD. Entire Mesa force needs to be retrained. Mesa has a tendency to shoot first and ask questions later if you survive. Just remember the cop who murdered an unarmed suspect laying on the ground at the La Quinta Inn.
So let me get this straight….called 911 for help. Cause ex wife came and took child without permission and I get abused by cops for them being afraid. WTH!!!
Get a good lawyer as he was.The victim called 911 and subsequently victimized.And of course you're gonna say the officers did nothing wrong.However, the are actions in regards to training show.They know this was inappropriate
Another situation where someone called police for help and the officers become afmggresive with him, escalate the situation, use force to cuff him ? And the police department says the did nothing wrong and followed procedures ! What a joke. What has happened to protect and serve ? Seems like if you need help the last people to call is the police. More training will do no good when they have been told they did nothing wrong.
so, if you assault and injure and innocent party, you get "retrained". Begs the question, how come he didn't know this before.. I've never been trained as a cop, but I know not to assault people. WTF?
Dear ABC news… Why in the hell didn’t you show the portion of the video where they claimed this man created the problem and wouldn’t follow instruction? Is that so hard to do?
What company fires you for something you did not even do and not even at the actual workplace ? I will never buy anything again EVER from this company.
I don't think additional training is going to do anything, if your first reaction is to give the person who called you a hard time because their kid was just kidnapped, probably shouldn't be interacting with the public because you don't understand basic human emotions.
Mesa PD essentially says “We investigated ourselves, and found no nothing wrong”. Mesa PD also says “The officers involved will receive retraining”. There is not a world where those 2 statement exist at the same time in the same situation. If they need to be retrained, it because they did something wrong. Had they acted acceptably, there would be no need to retrain them. The reporters should ask the Chief if he’d like to see his father treated this way. If the answer is “no”, then they can ask a follow up question of “why not, if these officer did nothing wrong?” Of course the reporters won’t ask and even if they did, the CoP would not give an honest answer.
Retraining using the same training that failed in the first place... brilliant solution.
💯 a problem can never be solved at the level that created it

Wow, no one violated policy yet laws were broken. That kind of sums it all up with what's wrong with law enforcement. Both officers should be criminally charged and prosecuted.
Filing complaints is useless anymore. They'll back their own no matter how egregious their actions are. Then theyll wonder why people hate cops.
Guess we just have to keep suing the municipality until they go bankrupt to make it stop?
End qualified immunity
Typical of Mesa PD, Mesa PD is worse than Phoenix PD. Entire Mesa force needs to be retrained. Mesa has a tendency to shoot first and ask questions later if you survive. Just remember the cop who murdered an unarmed suspect laying on the ground at the La Quinta Inn.
Calling the police for a black person is a death sentence
Once some cops see that skin nothing else matters except the impulse to arrest....
Gee.. someone attacks a👮🏻.. They get re-training? Or jail time
So let me get this straight….called 911 for help. Cause ex wife came and took child without permission and I get abused by cops for them being afraid. WTH!!!
The victim gets laid off and the cop gets additional training! If I was black I would not ever call the cops
did nothing wrong but will go through retraining, um, so if they need training then they did something wrong.
Get a good lawyer as he was.The victim called 911 and subsequently victimized.And of course you're gonna say the officers did nothing wrong.However, the are actions in regards to training show.They know this was inappropriate
This cops need to lose his job not retrained and need to be lawsuit against the police department too
Lawsuit time.
why only those 2 got retrained? ALL of 'em!!!
Another situation where someone called police for help and the officers become afmggresive with him, escalate the situation, use force to cuff him ? And the police department says the did nothing wrong and followed procedures ! What a joke. What has happened to protect and serve ? Seems like if you need help the last people to call is the police. More training will do no good when they have been told they did nothing wrong.
Putting someone on the ground like that is an attempt to dehumanized that person.
Never call the police
Can anybody figure out what company fired him for being worried about his daughter so that they can be boycotted for all eternity?
All this "re-training" that we keep paying for won't fix these corrupt cops. This is a behavior problem with the cops - not a training issue.
It’s apparent that Arizona POST is not training officers correctly, neither are their FTO’s and departments.
There is no situation that can't be made worse by the presence of a police officer. Cops are monsters.
I agree...I'll say it again and again, criminal cops are the most dangerous creatures on the face of the planet.
Where’s the body cam footage???😑
Retrain , teach them how to do the same thing but this time how to get away with it . First you gotta get rid of those damn cameras .
The reporter says she saw the body cam footage, but does not confirm whether or not he was told ahead of time that his daughter was safe.
so, if you assault and injure and innocent party, you get "retrained".
Begs the question, how come he didn't know this before.. I've never been trained as a cop, but I know not to assault people. WTF?
I'm so sick of cops getting away with behavior that would put the average citizen in prison for years.
I pray he sue
Add it to that hideous Laquinta incident...😮
From someone who has just had major knee surgery this scenario terrifies me…🤕🤯
Dear ABC news… Why in the hell didn’t you show the portion of the video where they claimed this man created the problem and wouldn’t follow instruction? Is that so hard to do?
They say we don't follow directions.We're not dogs.We're not animals.They keep making excuse for these officer. Qualified immunity must go
He's a believer. Back the blue until it happens to you.
At this point, everyone should understand that if you call police an innocent person may very well end up dead. This is very uncalled for.
Soooo…. What were they trained for the first time.
What company fires you for something you did not even do and not even at the actual workplace ? I will never buy anything again EVER from this company.
never EVER call the blue line gang members for anything
If the officers followed policy, policy needs to be changed!
I don't think additional training is going to do anything, if your first reaction is to give the person who called you a hard time because their kid was just kidnapped, probably shouldn't be interacting with the public because you don't understand basic human emotions.
Mesa PD essentially says “We investigated ourselves, and found no nothing wrong”. Mesa PD also says “The officers involved will receive retraining”. There is not a world where those 2 statement exist at the same time in the same situation. If they need to be retrained, it because they did something wrong. Had they acted acceptably, there would be no need to retrain them. The reporters should ask the Chief if he’d like to see his father treated this way. If the answer is “no”, then they can ask a follow up question of “why not, if these officer did nothing wrong?” Of course the reporters won’t ask and even if they did, the CoP would not give an honest answer.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 stop calling police if you are person of colour.
After 50 years on this planet, the police never fail to surprise me with their stupidity
