On August 14, 2017, Officer Adam Feaman broke 24-year-old Jamal White’s jaw while arresting him for a noise violation. White has filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court, alleging Feaman used excessive force during the encounter. When he learned about the lawsuit, Feaman threatened to crack White’s jaw once again.

Yeah, that’s going to help Feaman’s case.

White was standing outside his car on August 14 when Feaman decided to arrest him for “violating the city noise ordinance and disturbing the peace with loud music.”

White, disbelieving, said:

I’m not under arrest. How am I under arrest?

White nervously began jogging away, at which point the officers and White began screaming at each other and Feaman struck him in the face with a large flashlight, breaking his jaw.

No one’s jaw should be broken for loud music. It sounds like that officer has anger issues and needs to be fired. Plus he should pay for this man’s legal fees and injuries. — connie boje (@BojeConnie) August 15, 2018

That picture of the cop looks like he was typecast as a 70s cop who breaks dudes' jaws — Josh Mugele (@jmugele) August 15, 2018

Feaman reportedly struck White once again in the back of his head after he was already injured, and as he was falling to the ground, the officer said:

Get on the f*cking ground!

Even if this Black man was playing “F**k the Police” by N.W.A., due process demand that no citizen deserves to have his job broken over loud music. pic.twitter.com/U3SnqMMeDe — ????????? ???????? ? (@AmazingDouglass) August 15, 2018

Much of the arrest was captured on video:

Feaman and White encountered each other again in a bar about a month later, where Feaman threatened to crack White in the jaw once more if he pursued a lawsuit against him. This, however, didn’t stop White from doing just that.

So called cops stay punching on people knowing they can’t swing back. True sucka shit. — Mitch Brown (@MitchelBrown_) August 15, 2018

In response to the incident, activist Samuel Sinyangwe and Campaign Zero tracked down many misconduct reports relating to Officer Feaman and passed them along to the Grassroots Accountability Movement. They reveal a pattern of mistreatment between Feaman and young black men.

@stlcountypd if this officer works for you he should be fired immediately before he kills someone. — dk (@debbiek173) August 16, 2018

Probably representative of what happens when a cop gets in trouble at one department. They move along towards retirement. No repurcussions and rarely justice. https://t.co/WlhXEBcGKe — Bruce (@BAngelsan) August 15, 2018

According to RawStory:

A 22-year-old black man filed a complaint in 2010 accusing Feaman of using racial slurs against him during a traffic stop, and the next year another 22-year-old black man complained he planted drugs on him before another officer hit him in the face.

In 2012, Feaman was also accused of punching a suspect in the face. Then, in 2014, a 31-year-old black man claimed Feaman stole $400 from his car “during a traffic stop.” Feaman clearly has a pattern of abusing his position.

The lawsuit will proceed through the legal system and, if found guilty, Feaman could face harsh disciplinary action.
