Imagine this cops and the city (Galveston, Texas) that supports them. From the officers' lawyer, William Helfand: Both the daughter and the father were arrested for assaulting a peace officer. "The father basically attacked police officers as they were trying to take the daughter into custody after she ran off." Let me see, 3 men in plain suit, nabs a little girl, girl fights-off, father comes to the rescue? Also, "The city has investigated the matter and found that the conduct of the police officers was appropriate under the circumstances," Helfand says. "It's unfortunate that sometimes police officers have to use force against people who are using force against them. The word for that is called "Defense" And the evidence will show that both these folks violated the law and forcefully resisted arrest." This cops needs be jailed and sued!

WTF... They should be jailed for life, and the Police dept should give a huge compensation! THIS IS BULLSHIT, WHERE THE **** IS HUMAN RIGHTS AND CHILD PROTECTION?
