Abusive cop still on force after paralyzing innocent bystander, abuses continue

"By 2008, he was striking, tasing, and wrestling with suspects; using takedowns, foot sweeps, punches and pepper spray. His supervisors found all of it acceptable under department policy, but warned him to look for alternatives and to avoid arresting people simply because they challenged his authority or weren't respectful."

"...we found Deputy Paul uses force far more often than the average transit deputy---six times more often."

"...he took off at a sprint and it looked like a rhinoceros bearing down on me. I was running away from him so he grabbed me from behind and thrust me to the ground and my face smashed into the pavement... this is how you treat jaywalkers?”
