Vallejo police Officer David McLaughlin confronts Adrian Burrell outside his Vallejo home on Jan. 22, 2019. Video courtesy Adrian Burrell.

The city of Vallejo has agreed to pay $300,000 to local filmmaker and U.S. Marines veteran Adrian Burrell, who filed an excessive force lawsuit against the city after he was tackled by a Vallejo police officer while filming a traffic stop in 2019, according to the settlement obtained by the Vallejo Sun via a public records request.

The case made national headlines because of Vallejo police Officer David McLaughlin’s apparent attempt to prevent his actions from being recorded. Burrell’s footage shows McLaughlin hold a motorcycle rider at gunpoint in the driveway of Burrell’s home.

Burrell filmed the stop from the front porch of his home about 30 feet away. When McLaughlin saw Burrell, he ordered him to stop filming and go inside. Burrell refused. McLaughlin holstered his weapon and approached Burrell.

Burrell said in his lawsuit that McLaughlin smashed his face into a wall and swung him into a pole. He applied the handcuffs so tight it broke the skin on his right hand and left his fingers numb, Burrell’s suit alleged.

McLaughlin has been a Vallejo police officer since 2014 and was previously in the Oakland Police Department. His twin brother, Ryan McLaughlin, is also a Vallejo police officer. Both brothers have previously been sued for alleged civil rights violations.

In 2014, David McLaughlin was named in a suit alleging that he and another officer pulled over Frederick Cooley without cause, held him at gunpoint and searched his car.

The complaint alleges they falsified a police report saying that Cooley was in possession of a controlled substance, but the Solano County District Attorney's Office later abandoned those charges. The civil case was dismissed after Cooley died.

Officer David McLaughlin has also been involved in two shootings since joining Vallejo police. He and Officer Matt Komoda fired on a suspect who..

ATLANTA — On Wednesday, the Atlanta Police Department released bodycam video from the August tasing death of Johnny Hollman, an Atlanta church deacon who had been involved in a traffic accident.

A version released by the Atlanta Police Department, which contains further edits and inclusions, can be viewed at this link.

What does the video show?
The video comes from the bodycam worn by now-former Officer Kiran Kimbrough on the night he tased Hollman, whose death resulted from an abnormal heart rhythm due to being tased.

Hollman's tasing death followed Kimbrough's response to a traffic accident. The video shows he determined Hollman was at fault, which the church deacon objected to, and he initiated an arrest - leading to the tasing - when Hollman wouldn't sign the traffic ticket.

The video includes the full incident: from Hollman's full interaction with the officer (both before and after the ticket is issued), to the struggle and tasing, the response from other officers once they get on the scene, to Grady EMS being called.

The video shows Kimbrough issuing the citation, Hollman's objection and, after ordering him several times to sign the ticket, initiating an arrest as the deacon begins to say he'll sign it. The two briefly appear to struggle before Kimbrough takes Hollman to ground, ordering him to put his hands behind his back as he presses his head and body into the ground. Hollman says "I can't breathe" a number of times.

After Kimbrough tases Hollman, the deacon becomes unresponsive. The officer is told to apply a chest rub after Hollman passes out, which he does. Other officers arrive, and it is not clear in the video what other life-saving measures might have been applied. Medics arrive about 12 minutes after the tasing and apply chest compressions.

Hollman was taken to Grady Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on Aug. 11 shortly before 1 a.m., the medical examiner's report stated.

On 1/19/2023, Trooper Cadet C. Nusall and I were patrolling the area of GA-17 and GA-204. As
we were patrolling, we overheard a Chatham County PD officer attempt to stop a car that fled from him
just south of our location. I communicated with Officer R. Santoro, who later stated to me that, he
attempted to perform traffic stop with a white Nissan Murano with the back window glass broken out,
bearing a Georgia license plate on Canebrake Road. The Nissan fled into the drive of a
private residence, drove through the back yard and around a house then re-entered back onto
Canebrake and continued to flee eastbound towards GA-25. Cadet Nusall and I located the Nissan
traveling northbound on GA-25 before entering onto GA-204 eastbound. We activated our emergency
blue lights and siren and caught up with the Nissan. Cadet Nusall advised the Troop F
Communications Center that we were attempting to stop the same vehicle that just fled from Officer
Santoro. Just as the Nissan fled from Officer Santoro, the Nissan disregarded our emergency blue
lights and siren and initiated a vehicle pursuit with us.
The Nissan continued to flee eastbound on GA-204. When the Nissan approached Sweetwater
Station Drive, the Nissan made a U-Turn and accelerated away, heading westbound on GA-204. As
we continued to pursue the Nissan, we approached a small group of motorists. The Nissan Murano,
driving recklessly, attempted to pass the group and almost struck a Dodge Charger attempting to yield
to the right. After passing the group of motorists, the Nissan continued to flee westbound on GA-204
heading towards I-95. Having patrolled this area for several years and from experience, this area of
GA-204 and I-95 typically has high foot traffic from the populated homeless camps as well as high
motoring traffic from I-95. Considering that we were quickly approaching the I-95 corridor creating an
immediate concern for the safety of innoce..

Learning from these incidents are critical to help educate how to prevent and how to be safer when dealing with cops or critical incidents.

The incident occurred shortly before 5 p.m. on Sunday, February 11, 2024. when Las Cruses Police Officer Jonah Hernandez, was responding to a trespassing call by the owner of the property on the 300 block of south Valley Drive.

There has been a history of trespassing, vandalism, starting fires, erratic behavior and people leaving needles on that property. The suspect was confronted by the property owner the day before and asked or told to leave.

The investigation has revealed that, when officer Hernandez arrived at the scene, the suspect, Armando Silva, 29, immediately attacked him with a large kitchen knife. After stabbing officer Hernandez, Silva, a man with a history of crimes and mental illness, tried attacking a bystander who witnessed the unprovoked attack on Hernandez. That witness retrieved his own firearm, shot and killed Silva.

Another witness then utilized Hernandez’s radio to call for help.

Officer Hernandez was transported to Mountain View Regional Medical Center where he succumbed to his injuries.

Hernandez served as a Las Cruces Police Department officer since June 2022.

Officer Jonah Hernandez is survived by his wife, Yesenia Lopez, and two sons: Sebastian Jonah, 10, and 2-year-old Joaquin Leonel. Hernandez was from El Monte, California., and grew up in El Paso, Texas. He was a 2006 graduate of Americas High School.

The mother of Armando Silva, Xochitl Hernandez also made a statement.
As a mother and a citizen of the Las Cruces Community, I am very torn and troubled over the recent tragic events that lead to the loss of two beautiful human lives. I would like to clarify that my son was not a “homeless vagrant” as he is being portrayed. He was a young man, that has suffered from severe mental illness for many years now. For those of us who knew him, this very tragic event, was out of character for him. I..

After getting this gun it was really dirty, have some rusting and appeared neglected. After doing a complete takedown and cleaning I wanted to ensure it was operational. So Before firing it, I tied a string to trigger to test fire from safe distance.

Stay frosty my fellow Vets - Our Country is in real trouble.

Joe R calls it like it is.

The cops today are NOT the cops you grew up with. They Woke, lazy, no standards, NOT part of the community and act with total disregard to the public. They do not serve the public they serve their pensions, orders and blue lives first. Holding Gov/Law Enforcement accountable is not only our right, it is our responsibility.

Mount Shasta, California — On December 25, 2023, at approximately midnight, Mt. Shasta Police Department received a call from Amtrak personnel advising that they had a passenger onboard threatening staff and passengers with brass knuckles, exhibiting aggressive behavior, and potentially under the influence. Amtrak advised they would be stopping the train on the railroad tracks at Lake St. and requested an officer respond to assist in removing the passenger, identified as 32 year old Nicolas Detweiler. Mt. Shasta Police Department responded and met with Amtrak personnel who led Officer Jeremiah Capurro to Detweiler.

An altercation between Officer Capurro and Detweiler led to shots being fired by Officer Capurro, striking Detweiler. The assisting crew member was also inadvertently struck by gunfire. Life saving aid was rendered to both Detweiler and the crew member following the shooting. Detweiler succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased on scene. The crew member was transported to a local hospital where he received treatment for his injuries. Officer Jeremiah Capurro has over 2 years of experience with agency. Officer Capurro sustained a moderate brain concussion, due to blunt force trauma, and facial injuries as a result of the altercation and was treated at a local area hospital.

Weak men Make Hard Times, and they are coming

Todays Cops Are no longer honest or trustworthy, they are a gang with Gov Protection and no accountability. They prey on working citizens and hide from real criminals. If you call the cops today your odds of dying or going to jail is highly likely. And Yes I carry a badge and gun for 30 years. I have put many dangerous felons in prison with more honor than most of today's cops. Very sad times and it is getting worse every day

Will we ever really know what attacks happen? Between our lying Gov and lying Media - Truth is an endangered species
