SF public defender calls for changes to police arrest techniques after viral video arrest by Daniel Montes
Do rules for the application of force in arrests need to be reconsidered? Probably. But having two women conduct an arrest of a woman (as in this case, or in the photo accompanying the article), while it may protect them somewhat from MeToo allegations, is also stupid with respect to how much strength they have.
afaik, the use of force is valid only with respect to those resistance arrest, and there has to be proportionality. But would the guidelines be different if we looked at not only safety issues but also what is appropriate for the treatment of fellow citizens?
