The LAPD is under scrutiny after a surveillance video uncovered the brutal arrest of Michelle Jordan, 34, a working mother who was pulled over for driving while using her cell phone.
Michelle Jordan, a nurse, was asked to pull over into a Del Taco parking lot, according to LA Weekly, where she was rustled aggressively out of her vehicle after cursing out the two cops who approached her.
After which the video took a starling turn showing the two officers manhandling the 5’2 woman-according to CBS, Jordan’s attorney stated, “At some point she was pulled out of her vehicle, thrown to the ground, handcuffed, brought back to the police cruiser, and then hip-tossed to the ground very violently, while in handcuffs.”
Jordan was left with cuts and bruises on her face and bruising along the top of her body.
Divison Captain, Joseph Hiltner, is facing a possible demotion due to the failure of notifying authorities of the cruel act while the two cops that arrested Jordan were taken off active duty
