Hello everyone. I am in need of help for me and my family. We have been victims to police in our local area which is Bethlehem pa. Has beat me, my wife,and my kids asses for no reason. This steamed from us calling 911 the police to help us and my children who were being bullied and beat up with guns by other teens for no reason. As we get there to help make sure our children were good the police turned on me flipping me upside down by one handcuff. I explained I am disabled. Earlier this year I had a spinal fusion and cannot move certain ways which I told the officer. He then became a tyrant screaming at me while I am telling him I cannot move as he increasingly get more aggressive. My daughter sees this and runs to me. She is my care taker due to my unbalanced walking. He pushes her down. My son also sees and comes running to make sure I am okay because I’m screaming I can’t I can’t move in injured I’m disabled. He then kicked my son in his chest and taxed him. My other son sees all of this and approaches and he is then tazed and started to have seizures. This also tazes my son already on the ground that was tazed prior. We are screaming he is having a seizure. The officer tells my wife talk to me nicely and I’ll think about calling an ambulance. While all this is going on my wife which is a “white” woman comes running and the police push her into the drain gutter. We are all just worried and called for the safety of our children being threatened and ultimately we were the ones who got messed up by ONE officer. Everything was excessive. The police when going to make a report refuse to give me any paper word and incident numbers. They also released us all and let us walk away after all of the other 30 officers that arrived and said that it was out of hand. FYI this is a police Lieutenant. Please any form of help or even a lawyer would be amazing. For reference my children are light brown complexion like me. The hank in advanced everyone.
Police forged my signature on a VERY important document. Without my signature the document is inadmissible as evidence against me. The date on the document that I apparently ‘signed’ is also incorrect by almost 5 months. What should I do ?!?
November 4th 2024, Inuit twins Joshua and Garnet were shot by a Canadian police officer which resulted in Joshau dying and his brother in serious condition.
The brothers were unarmed at a residence and were shot at close range. Jack Charles was killed on August 29th 2024 he was run over by a RCMP.
On August 30th 2024 Hoss Lightening while experiencing a mental health crisis he called 911 for help but after an attempt to arrest him he panicked and ran, a cop then shot him.
Tammy Bateman on September 2nd 2024 was runover by police as they drove through her camp.
This is just a small list of the several killed or harmed. This happens in Canada to and doesn't just mess with Black Americans.
