The Contempt of Cop Cases
In 20 15, Sandra bland was arrested in waller county, texas after a pretextual traffic stop. The officer wrote up a warning for the traffic violation but then he got angry over the course of his conversation with her. He tried to pull her out of the car physically, and then he threatened her with a teazer. She screams that she has epilepsy; he replies, good he arrests her and takes her to jail. And sandra bland is found dead at the county jail three days later. But it's such a clear example of how an authoritarian police regime operates on a daily basis.
