Man Charged In OHP Misconduct Investigation

Another OHP lie caught on video (not seen on FOX) "The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says there will be no disciplinary action against a trooper seen in a television news video punching a man in the back as the man lay face down while being arrested. The incident came at the end of a chase in which Christopher Harrell was arrested. Troopers say Harrell had sped away from an attempted traffic stop before he turned around and went back in the direction of the troopers. The KWTV video shows Harrell getting on the ground as troopers approached. One put his knee on Harrell's back and later punched him once in the back. The trooper's name hasn't been released. Lt. George Brown says the trooper told Harrell three times to give him his arm to be handcuffed and when Harrell failed to do so the trooper responded as trained with the punch." Now, watch the video and see if you believe that story: http://www.news9.com/Global/category.asp?C=116601&clipId=4245787&autostart=true Did the trooper even have time to make three demands before punching the guy? The guy even drove back to police and laid down without being ordered, obviously surrendering, and yet the trooper said he was resisting?

How long is the OHP going to protect officers like this? These officers are a disgrace to their uniform, a disgrace to their unit, the OHP, and to the state of Oklahoma. The OHP wants and needs our respect, but the way they are acting, they are going to have earn my respect. I can imagine that this officer is only the tip of the iceberg. Our poor state is almost the laughing stock of the nation. We have outdated laws. Our schools are at the bottom of the nation in educating students. Our state lawmakers don’t know how to fix this problem, except throw more taxpayers dollars at the education system. Paying superintendents, principals, and teachers more money for doing the same job of not educating the students is not the answer. We do have some GREAT teachers here, but in some cases their hands are tied. But there are a lot of overpaid superintendents and principals. How hard is it to look at other states that have successful education systems, systems that are in the top 10% of the nation, and start using their programs? Sorry for getting off topic, but I felt it need to be stated.

Officer Martin needs an attitude adjustment.
