A surveillance video showing a police officer tasering a 14-year-old girl in the groin has been released as part of a lawsuit she has filed against the officer and the city.
Keshana Wilson, from Allentown, Philadelphia, was tasered by the police officer on September 29 outside Dieruff High school as she was walking with a group of friends.
Though 100 seconds is missing from the video according to the lawsuit, it captures the final encounter between Miss Wilson and officer Jason Ammary, but not what preempted it.
The officer claims the girl resisted arest and elbowed him in the chin, the lawsuit claims he grabbed her from behind without identifying himself and shoved her into the car.
The 14-year-old is seen walking towards the car before it abruptly cuts to her being slammed against the side of it by the officer.
A struggle ensues, before the officer steps back and fires his taser at her groin, causing her to collapse in agony on the ground.
Alright I know there is a section missing from the video that could be anything, the girl talking shit to the cop or something, whatever. What in my opinion it clearly shows is an overreaction by a police officer.
Now I know that when cops are in fear for their safety they have to resort to force, it makes sense. But I challenge to find a cop who tells you that the force in this video was necessary. The cop goes up to the girl and she struggles, and instead of just using his training to turn her and slam her against the car to cuff her, the lazy prick just steps back and zaps her. Dude, really, you needed to tase a 14-year-old girl? Come on man.

But at the end of the video you can clearly see in the bottom right of the screen another kid getting led away in cuffs by a security guard, so who knows what the fuck is going on. All I know is fuck the police. I hope that chick makes a fortune off the city because of this fucker.
