    It does seem odd that it hasn't come out yet.

      Inquest is in May - results are often suppressed until then.

          Here i'll even give you the link and time ~7:00 watch the right cop jab that sucker into him. I wouldn't be surprised if he was beat to death.

          So ya what was that big pole he whipped out?
          appologies for the late reply.

          That baton is not being jabbed into the suspect (even tho you can't see the suspect from that position)

          The officer is slamming the baton into the ground to collapse it. If you've ever used an expandable baton you'll know how much force it takes to collapse it.

            Odd, because I have in fact used one and I certainly didn't need to slam it in the ground like that, and I am not a big guy. Where did that information come from, out of curiosity?

              Was yours spring loaded? Where you can press in with your body weight?

              I've never held a police issue one, but I bet they are not spring driven. That does explain the strikes and why he didn't look concerned about where it it (floor is big target).

                To me it just looked like the officer was collapsing the batton. Friend of mine has had one for a long time, from the Army Surplus, not sure if police use same one or not but his does require a good amount of force to collapse it.

                  I have no idea, I don't own one. I asked a police officer if I could have a picture a few years ago and he whipped it out and handed it to me.

                    I beg to differ. My brother is an officer, and he let me use his for a bit. Depending on how strong you are, it can be very difficult to retract. I guess it's simply proportional to what amount of force you use to extend it.
