Investigators say within two seconds of initial contact, Louisiana trooper Jacob Brown began beating a suspect who was already on the ground. The video shows the trooper pummeling Aaron Bowman with a flashlight following a traffic stop. Bowman was left with a broken jaw, ribs and wrist, and required six staples to his head. Bowman is facing charges, including battery of a police officer. State police say Brown engaged in “excessive and unjustifiable actions.” He resigned from the force.
Investigators say within two seconds of initial contact, Louisiana trooper Jacob Brown began beating a suspect who was already on the ground. It appears this cop just ran upon Mr. Aaron Bowman, beating a man that was already subdued, on the ground, like that, for what? a traffic stop!
