Rep Power: 7  | Tuscon Police Officer uses Taser on Nine year old Girl Tuscon Police Officer uses Taser on Nine year old Girl Posted by: Pisky On: Thu May, 27 2004 @ 18:29 GMT Reports have arrived from Fox11AZ.com stating that an Arizona police officer is under investigation for using a taser on a nine year old girl. A veteran South Tucson police sergeant is under investigation for firing his stun gun to subdue a handcuffed 9-year-old girl. At the request of Chief Sixto Molina, the Pima County Sheriff's Department is trying to determine if the sergeant committed a crime when he sent a jolt through the child's body. Fox11AZ.com The incident occurred at the Arizona Children's Home, a school for special needs children. The chief of police stated that the call had been made regarding a runaway from the institution, but declined to make further comment. The girl was handcuffed at the time the weapon was used. So we have a nine year old girl - a runaway from a special needs school who was already handcuffed, being hit with an electric charge supposedly to 'subdue' her. Am I to believe that two police officers were unable to deal with a nine year child who was aready handcuffed ? "I'll be the first to admit, you've got a veteran sergeant Tasing a 9-year-old girl, it doesn't look good", The chief of police admitted. Doesn't look good - its despicable. It reeks of abuse. I can understand tasing a six foot muscle bound Bubba-type, but a child ??? There definitely needs to be an investigation concerning this. |

Rep Power: 7 | Police use stun gun on 6-year-old Officials: Child was cutting himself with glass Friday, November 12, 2004 Posted: 8:25 AM EST (1325 GMT) MIAMI, Florida (AP) -- Police used a stun gun on a 6-year-old boy in his principal's office because he was wielding a piece of glass and threatening to hurt himself, officials said Thursday. The boy, who was not identified, was shocked with 50,000 volts on October 20 at Kelsey Pharr Elementary School. Principal Maria Mason called 911 after the child broke a picture frame in her office and waved a piece of glass, holding a security guard back. When two Miami-Dade County police officers and a school officer arrived, the boy had already cut himself under his eye and on his hand. The officers talked to the boy without success. When the boy cut his own leg, one officer shocked him with a Taser and another grabbed him to prevent him from falling, police said. He was treated and taken to a hospital, where he was committed for psychiatric evaluation. "By using the Taser, we were able to stop the situation, stop him from hurting himself," police spokesman Juan DelCastillo told The Miami Herald. The case was under review. |
