UPDATE
ORIGINAL POST ...sighs...another day, another police 'what the fuck moment.' As always, video of the incident has been provided below and caution should be taken prior to viewing. Here's what you need to know about Honestie Hodges:
Brief thoughts: I just don't understand how these things keep happening. I'm all for getting the bad guy or gal, but come on! You're looking for a grown ass woman and clearly Honestie is a kid and she looks like a kid! So, I'm just perplexed on how these officers royally screwed this up. What makes it so sad is what Honestie had to say during an interview after the incident, "I wanted to be a detective or a police officer, but now I don't want anything to do with those kind of things. I'm just wondering why they did that to me." Now I don't personally know Honestie, but I inherently believe that all kids are good, despite what parents might try to teach and instill in them, and I believe that Honestie is a good kid and she could've been a damn good detective and/or police officer, lord knows we need more of the good ones. And now we'll never know the potential of what Honestie could've done in this field because these idiots crushed her dreams. And people wondering why there's so much distrust between the black community and the police. This poor child has been traumatized for the rest of her entire life and I guarantee she will NEVER trust the police again. She also said, "I'm afraid to open or go near my back door because of what happened." So, not only has her trust in the people that are supposed to protect her been shattered, her trust in people period has been demolished. The names of these officers need to be released and they need to be removed from the streets because there's no telling how many other people they might've assaulted and how many more they could potentially assault for absolutely no reason. I hope that her family sues the police department for emotional distress and they deserve every dime that comes their way!
