police tazered me illegally. what is your response?
Question by : police tazered me illegally. what is your response?
Several years ago, I was tazered by police.
My truck had run out of gas – the power was out in town, and I couldn’t get gas in town. It was a Thursday in April. My truck ran out of gas a few blocks from my house. I pushed it to the side of the road and walked home.
At 11PM, the police stopped “because my truck was parked suspeciously,” and then smelled marijuana not from my truck but from a nearby house.
At just after 3AM, they called my parents’ house, where I was living, and told my mother that I am doing drugs (because my truck was parked in front of the house where they found marijuana growing (apparently legally, according to the other police report) inside and for no other reason than that).
My mother came into my room, quite hysterical, turns the light on (at 3AM) and starts yelling at me. She did not mention drugs. She just said “Your car is in the middle of the street! The police are on the phone!” And repeated variations of that endlessly.
The police heard me respond to my mom, on the phone, “Get out of my fuckin’ room.”
I get dressed, go down to where my car is parked, and say “Hi, how’s it going?”
The police respond, “turn around and spread your legs.”
I do so, cooperate, and when they finish searching me, I asked, “Do you really have the right to search me?”
The police officer then pushed me, grabbed me by my sweatshirt, and pulled me backward, and said “Hero wants to play games with us.”
Another officer called me over to his car – the one who had heard me speak to my mom from the phone. He yelled at me for several minutes, at which point I said that my car had run out of gas, and he told me that they were going to tow my car, that it would be $ 500 to get it out of impound, leave before they arrested me.
At that point, my dad was there, and I gave my keys to him.
On the way home, I did say “fuck.” It was not directed at anyone. I was quite far away from anyone, but apparently it was heard. I swear that I did not say or do anything besides that, or that has been described so far.
After I got home, my dad came to the door of my room, which I had locked, broke open the door. The door then hit me in my forehead, making me bleed, tackled me, grabbed me by the collar of my shirt, shouting, repetitively, something like “you can’t do this!”
Apparently, the police had told my parents that I was on drugs, that they should send me to military school, etc.
I punched my dad in his stomach / solar plexus, extremely lightly, who was shaking me up and down by the collar of my shirt, shouting nonsensically and repetitively, and had just bludgeoned me with a door. He rolled over and said to my mom, “call 911.”
She did so, and then hung up the phone.
I got up, and walked out of the house, doing nothing except walking, saying nothing.
I walked down the street.
The police were driving up the street. They literally skidded to a stop not more than 5 feet from where I was standing, not moving, with my hands up “helplessly.” I said “leave me alone.” They said “Get on the ground!” I said “Ok.” And I started to get onto the ground and they tazered me, and took me to jail for resisting arrest, and never went to the house where the 911 hangup had been made.
They lied horrendously in the police report.
Today, my dad lied about this, exaggerating to make me look worse, and the cops look better, saying that when I walked home, I said “fuck you,” and flipped them off.
Why do you say that? Could you possibly be less specific?
I have a theory: You blame the victim of an injustice, and you support whoever has power, whether or not they are right, good or evil, and no matter how black and white it is.
Yes, apparently the power was back on at my house at 3AM. This was at 9-10PM that I was driving, in town. There was a town-wide power outage. It happens sometimes. Is that relevant…?
I SWEAR (!!!) THAT EVERYTHING I’VE SAID IS TRUE AND CORRECT, AND THAT I’VE LEFT NOTHING OF ANY REMOTE RELEVANCE OF MY KNOWLEDGE OUT
Can you think of any OTHER WAY for it to have happened? Because I can’t.
Do you think I was down a few blocks away smoking pot with some people who were growing marijuana, and then just didn’t drive the few blocks away to my house?
My dad had to FILL up my trunk, and drove it back to my house, by the way. It was ACTUALLY out of gas.
Do you need any more info??? Can you honestly say that anything is amiss???
I cried? I had to go to the hospital to get the barbs out of my arm and my stomach.
I don’t know what more else there is to this? I couldn’t breathe when I got tazered, and when I realized that I tried to speak and I literally said ZZZZZZ…
It was the worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life. Worse than my arm bone being broken. Worse than my nose being broken. Worse than being shot in the balls with a paintball gun. Worse than being splattered with grease, or the stomach flu.
In the police mugshot you can see my bleeding forehead from where the doo
door hit me.
What more information can I provide???
Yeah, I KNOW that what I’m saying is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH. I KNOW it.
It is honestly FRIGHTENING to see people try to act in-denial over it, fight for and support the ones who committed this HUGE INJUSTICE.

You have a nasty attitude and disrespectful towards your parents.
