Baltimore police officers who attacked little boys

Man’s inhumanity to man never ceases to amaze me. I told you all about the two Baltimore police officers who attacked little boys. One attacked a 14 year old black child for the “crime” of walking down the street. The other one manhandled a 14 year old white boy for roller skating and calling him “dude”.
Now we have an officer caught on take dumping a handicapped human being from his wheelchair. And I’m really supposed to care that she is being harrassed for her actions and being callled names? I don’t think so!
If officers are sick of their jobs, QUIT. But STOP mistreating citizens and helpless people!
As outrage spread nationwide over a Hillsborough County jail inmate being tossed from his wheelchair onto the floor, the detention deputy at the center of the controversy has been getting nonstop phone calls, many racist in nature.
“It’s not even just in Florida,” said Beverly Crecy, the roommate of suspended Deputy Charlette Marshall-Jones.
“These calls are from out of state,” she said, with tears in her eyes. “People calling her ‘n—’ and ‘fat’ and all kinds of stuff. Seven o’clock in the morning and all through the night.”
Wednesday, three days after video of the wheelchair incident began blasting across news Web sites and YouTube, quadriplegic Brian Sterner made the national TV rounds with his Largo attorney; the Hillsborough State Attorney’s Office joined the Sheriff’s Office review; and one of the four suspended deputies went on the defense.
Sterner started the morning on the Today show. He told host Meredith Vieira he wanted a criminal investigation, action from Gov. Charlie Crist’s office and possibly a response from the federal government.
“It’s not about one deputy,” said Sterner, 32, who flew to New York for the show. He said he wanted more attention paid to the “ridiculous down-pressing of people across the world.
“It’s not about race. It’s not about a wheelchair,” he said. “It can happen to anybody, anytime.”

Sterner also said he wanted a personal apology from Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee for the way he was treated at the jail. By midafternoon, Gee issued one.

In a written statement, Gee said he was personally embarrassed by the “horrific treatment” Sterner received.

“As sheriff, I want to assure Mr. Sterner, as well as the citizens of Hillsborough County, that this incident will be investigated to the fullest,” said Gee, who was in Jacksonville at a Florida Sheriff’s Association meeting. “I cannot and will not even try to offer an explanation for what is seen on the video, other than to say, that once it was brought to my attention, I immediately initiated an internal investigation.”

GO HERE to read the rest of this horrific story—and to watch that MONSTER toss that man out of his wheelchair like yesterday’s garbage.
