Teens Beaten, Spit at by Cops, Newly Released Police Video Shows

Over eight hours of footage has been released by the Providence Police Department showing what happened in July when cops detained three teenage suspects. Though dozens of cops are seen in the videos, two police officers, Domingo Diaz and Mitchel Voyer, have been suspended with pay, pending an investigation into their alleged use of force during the arrest. Police confirm one of the suspects was taken to the hospital that night. No charges have been filed against any police officers.

Yeah a paid vacation is definitely gonna “teach” him something 100%

[pingadeputo]

“Pending an investigation” HE SPIT AT HIM ON CAMERA!

[beeneealston]

How is suspended WITH PAY holding cops accountable?! The way they held and beat those young men was criminal and they should have been arrested. This is ridiculous.

[softtaco]

Imagine being a cop, and a grown man, and then assaulting a handcuffed teen, and then going back to spit on him...what a bunch of cowards

[GlassHouseAdventures]

that’s considered assault at that point which means the other cops should have start using force on that officer.

[brandnewnew]

“Before judgment is passed” IT’s CLEAR THAT one cop held his head while the other punched.

[Materialgirl_]

And he did all of this knowing it was being recorded. That speaks for itself. Just imagine what else he’s done that we don’t know about

[gbr]

Absolutely disgusting how a peace officer supposed to protect and serve does this to a kid.

[pedrodepacas]

They did this knowing their body cams were on. Imagine what went on before body cams

“Allegedly punching”

Literally decking the guy

Edit: yeah I know it’s “legalese” to avoid being sued. DUH.
I was pointing out the irony of the video showing it at the same time of the journalist saying “allegedly”.

[phonesupport]

Then they wonder why people celebrate whenever a cop dies.

[heatheradams]

It's disgusting and the arrest of these two cops should go to court for their action and there should be charges against the two cops

[sauceyeti]

Everyone: "Did you punch the kid?"

Cop: "Allegedly"

[DayquanDamas]

They literally held the kids face up and punched him in his face repeatedly as he's laying in the ground. Come on now

[yourmom]

Funny how the older generations always complain about young people having no respect for rules and not taking accountability, but they never say the same thing when a story comes out about someone their own age committing a crime, let alone beating up and spitting on teenagers

[word]

“Suspension with pay” that’s called a paid vacation for the rest of us hard working civilian losers who don’t get rewards for blatant criminality. Also thanks for all the likes, listen I don’t at all condone the crime this kids committed but when police act like that they undermine the entire point of policing.

[Timmyfromphilly]

Cops will be like “we investigated ourselves and found that we did nothing wrong”.

[phobos]

Police: you need to respect us
Also Police: *Litterally Spiting on you while handcuffed*

[cosmicenigmarevealed]

Suspended with pay is a joke. Clearly their behavior is unacceptable. Spitting on them really?!!? They need to be held accountable for their unprofessional conduct.

[sincerely]

I notice how police NEVER get their deserved punishment when they overstep boundaries
