How can he be charged with such a violent act yet, still get his full pay and also set free until his hearing? This is not justice this is injustice at its finest!!!

Well looks like Richard Castillo will no longer be homeless once he wins his case and LAPD settle.

"send backup, my partner is beating an unresisting subject, and he's getting tired!"

[sda]

This dude was about to walk free if it weren’t for all the protests

[cirellaw]

He hits like a girl. And he's making all that grunting sounds- he couldn't bust a grape.

[notnotlegendary]

His Fellow officer failed him as well. He deserves to be held accountable. Lock him up

[TOXTHEWOLVERINE]

If the courts won't do their job then the people will do it

[biggdogg]

Who ever cleared him of no wrong doings needs to be removed.and investigated as well.

[Diceman]

He was grunting while punching..That tells it all..He was trying to cause harm to this man

[eto]

This thug needs to learn about integrity, no shame, not guilty and the partner should get jail time for not stopping the assault.

[NickM]

Make a statement to other cops. Throw him in jail.

[GaiaCarney]

Assault under the color of authority, filing false reports, violating their oath = so called ‘bad apples’ more common than ‘good apples’ 😔

[alexandergonzales]

Notice how he's not swinging at the officer he's is scared that the other officer might shoot him he's a bad cop the other officer should be fired as well

[eihtyg]

The female officer just stands there & watches a assault happen she needs to be fired as well

[geraldclay]

He shouldn't be getting paid tax payers money while on vacation, I meant "Home duty."

[cedcol]

He's been terrorising people in LA for 20 years.

[GRIMxREAFER]

I need back up. My partner is whooping someone's ass and I'm just watching

[DickHead-vl]

If a civilian hits a cop we get a minimum of five years in prison yet when cops assault civilians they get a slap on the wrist smfh. When tyranny is law Revolution is order

[prettybrowneyez]

So he was "arrested" and freed with NO BAIL. Is still getting paid.

Anything wrong with this "punishment😒😠??...

[angelloya]

Police should have their own insurance so we don't pay all the lawsuits with our taxes...
