I believe the policewoman acted unprofessionally. If the woman merely pointed her finger without making physical contact, the policewoman had no right to hit her. If the woman had committed a crime and the policewoman couldn't restrain her, she should have called for backup, point blank, and period.
Jamaica court system is a joke.
Police need more training …but Jamaica people in general hard to deal with …they don’t like law and order

Jamaican police just unprofessional, that's why the kill so much innocent people at times...
The police need to be fired. If she’s unable to retrain her call for back up. The system is poor and broken, get tasers. She is fighting with gun on her side. It could be something worst please train them to deal with people 🇬🇧🇬🇧
It started at the school and they call the police, very soon all teachers will leave the classroom, you can't talk to these children, they call parents to to beat teacher. So much indiscipline every where you turn. We are hard to deal with, set example for the younger generation.

St. Catherine full a dem type of parents! Because, dem think lineales and connections to Klansman and One Order gang members give them the right of passage to ge disrespectful and confrontational. Went to Jericho Primary School once! Saw a little boy behaving badly and the teachers are afraid to deal with hus little ass! Turns out that tge boy was such man from KLANS-MAN Nephew. AS FOR ME, WHEN I DESL WITH JIM, SUCH MAN CAN TAKE HOM AND TEACH HIM HIS TRADE! BUT, NOT IN MY CLASS ANOTHER DAY!
Edmon thanks fe di update,bless up yuh damself..fada God judgement is yours yuh na sleep.

WHY ARE THESE CRIMINALS GIVEN SO MUCH RIGHT FOR THEIR ACT.
Now we know why there's so much indiscipline in the schools! When a mother is going to behave in that manner on camera, disrespecting law & order. Can you imagine if she had confronted a teacher if she acted that way with the police? Wow! Glad I'm no longer in Jamaica's school system!

The police officer was the first to put hands on her because she pointed at her. While I do agree that that was a common law assault, the police’s force was very excessive and she needs to be stripped of her duties and charged. She grabbed the lady in her hair and started pulling here towards the van and that’s when the lady held on to her blouse. The lady was defending herself in my opinion because she was heard telling the so called officer to let her hair go and she’d get it but she refused to and I think it’s because of the power she felt. She also repeatedly hit the lady in her head when the lady was not even hitting her at all and she bit her so bad she started bleeding. Idk about u but I know for a fact that officers aren’t trained to pull hair or bite suspects or even hit them in the head when they’re not putting hands on them. I agree that the lady was wrong for pointing at the officer but absolutely too much force was used and that officer deserves jail time. If this is Jamaica’s law enforcement system it really isn’t the place to live, grow families or do business as they want it to appear to be.
Wow

My sentiments exactly, Daniellea. The policewoman is a big bully and was clearly abusing her power. Had she dealt with the situation in a more professional and respectful manner, chances are the civilian would have complied.

I agree, That is my Friend sister and she told me the whole story. The officer was in the wrong. Biting, and pulling hair was absolutely insane. They need to lock the officer up.
This police officer needs to be disciplined Abuse of power
While I acknowledge the police officer's use of excessive force, it's important to consider that the civilian was already under arrest and should not have resisted or shown disrespect towards Jamaican police. Here In the UK, such resistance could lead to the use of pepper spray or a Taser. This incident identifies the need for the Jamaican police force to improve officer training and equip them better to handle such situations more effectively in the future.
Those police need discipline too,I'm ashamed to say those are police officers .. how can you make an arrest without a handcuff...the police did more bodly harm,I'm ashamed to say at the end of the month she's gonna get paid for doing this to another person 😢🤔
Why not handcuff her? Things unnecessarily escalated.
Should get one million bail,how they expect their children to act

so police women is not going to be charge after she bite the women hand and fingures causing it to bleed only in Jamaica this nonsense can go on so the women should sue the officers for biting causing it to bleed thats not police training at all,what if that officer has H.I.V she can get fired for that and women would get money,or ahe sont know what that women has and she bite the fingures,police women get frustrated and she need to get disabling

Please speak properly so it makes sense and others can understand what ur saying. That 30 yrs old tyrant is lucky it's not in Canada or the USA, she probably would have gotten her arms twisted, go to jail and loose her case. Too Many civilian tyrants living in Jamaica, No respect neither to God nor mankind. On top of that, whenever there's a problem, these are the same law men they're calling for help. She was asked to leave, she should have obeyed authority and done so. No Example, no wonder why Jamaica is so full of blood sheds, shame on those tyrants!!🙏🏾

@@janetgordon9756you don't know the story in its entirety, so clasp your hands and be silent. Would you like to be restrained by your hair? It's not a good look, and I don't see much speaking on the police professionalism. Meanwhile if change is needed, you better know that it begins from the head (government/household) on down.
