In El Reno, Oklahoma an 86-year-old grandma got tasered by ten cops in her bed at home. Her grandson thought she was overdosed on pills so he called an ambulance, but next thing you know there are 10 cops in her room. The old woman got scared and the cops claimed that she was acting aggressive and that she threatened them with a knife. It turned out that she was just stressed out because of the incident and her medical condition.

She was hooked up to an oxygen machine, so she basically panicked when the police officers suddenly entered her room. One of the cops even stood on the oxygen machine hose, this made the old lady suffer from lack of air. She now wants to sue them for at least $75 000.

    People need to start standing up against this shit. These fucking idiots we call call police officers need to be in prison or they need to be turned into slaves.

      You say that like all cops are bad. That is not the case. The majority of officers are trained professionals with the public’s safety and well being a top priority. Don’t try to demonize all cops because of the action of a few. There are some incompetent people in every occupation in the world.

        The majority? Really? Where was the majority that night.

          Who knows man, there’s always a chance that all the dumb cops could be called into one place at once. There’s always that chance.
          Besides theres for sure more to this than what were told. Not even dumb cops would taze an 86 year old.

            well, for sure we know that it’s less than 1 for 10, because it’s ridiculous that TEN officer could be “dumb” enought, it’s just disrespect and impunity for the rights.

    I think someone shooting the cop, would be justified as self defense.

    America, becoming the new worlds police state.

    I was a nursing assistant in a nursing home for several years. I was able to single handedly take knives away from 3 residents on 3 separate occasions and I didn’t use a taser, a billy club or even my steel toed boot. They are old and it was easy to do. 10 cops to bust one old woman? It must be very easy to get away with crimes in that town if you only have to go up against one cop. How pitiful!

    Charles – I agree all cops should not be lumped together because of the actions of a few. However, the actions of those few must be dealt with properly. We should not fear our own police.

  8. Mimi says:

    These cops are really disgusting. But, the society has to take some of the responsibility. Who empowered these cops to this extent? Who sat on juries 20, 30 years ago and willfully acquitted murderous cops? Who kept quiet while cops’ kids ran amuck?

    Welcome to the party, we’ve come a long way since the 80s, haven’t we?

    SICK SICK SICK! I came across this website today and have commented on several video clips, trying to be as fair and unbiased as possible based on what I have seen in each clip. This is it for me this video clip demonstrates just how depraved and power hungry as humans we can be regardless of whether we are law enforcement officers or thr public in general. I can appreciate the outrage left in the comments but most are simply derogatory and unconstructive. I am leaving this site now, wishing I could do something to bring officers that deserve to be brought to justice, to justice and feeling completely frustrated and angry at the comments which simply go on the attack without backing up their statements.

    i don’t see this one as abuse she did have a knife and was telling them she killed before, Yes they should have tried kicking it out of her hand, or maybe getting a family member to calm her down and all police leave room for a minute, I mean cmon 10 cops surrounding her, the old lady probably had a flashback to the war or somthing..
    Not quite abuse
