the thin blue line once again isn't, and here you will see how they framed two marines for helping an unconscious person;
San Diego, Calif. – As TFTP originally reported,
two active duty U.S. Marines were charged with felony assault and
battery charges stemming from an altercation with San Diego police
officers and faced the possibility of being dishonorably discharged from
the service, as well as up to three years in prison for the false
charges filed against them. Luckily, however, unlike the police
officers, the body camera footage didn’t lie, and now, one of these
former Marines is getting civil justice.
Although they were charged with assault and battery, video captured
on an officer’s body camera indicates a different set of circumstance
than the narrative put forth by the officers involved in the incident,
and backs up claims made by the men and their attorneys.
This week, former Lance Corporal Robert Reginato was awarded $116,000
to settle the lawsuit against the San Diego police department.
The Marines claim and the video shows that they were simply being
good Samaritans and rendering aid to an unknown victim that was lying
unconscious on the ground when police attacked them.
They two men stated that they were out celebrating the return of a
fellow Marine from Afghanistan when they witnessed a fight take place.
One of the participants in the fight, who was unknown to either Marine,
was knocked unconscious. Both men rushed to the side of the victim and
attempted to render aid to the unconscious man on the ground.
The video then shows police rushing in and attempting to manhandle
the two Marines as they are in the process of attempting to give aid to
the unconscious man on the ground.
“While being held down on the ground, [Reginato] was repeatedly
punched in the face by defendant Patrick Vinson, without necessity or
justification,” reads the 2015 lawsuit.............https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/cops-assault-and-arrest-two-marines-for-giving-first-aid-to-an-unconscious-man/250722
