STOP RESISTING!!!! is the new Clarion Call for cops. They know they're being recorded so they scream this at even the most immobile suspect, while continuing to beat the sh**t out of him. Thankfully this was just a take-down. I can't imagine what the cop would do to a real criminal/
No, thats always been part of training. Verbal commands are a stable of use of force training. Though i will say that in a emotional high stress situation the verbal commands often turn to profanity. Been there done that.
I'm not talking verbal commands. I am saying when a cop says STOP RESISTING while he's on tape, he means -
"Dear District Attorney and Defendant's Civil Lawyer - I'm beating the f[inks] out of this guy illegally and covering my ass by suggesting he won't stop resisting......pretty clever eh? "
