A Black, female police officer has been dismissed by the City of Buffalo Police Department after 19 years of service because she tried to stop a fellow officer from choking a man who was already subdued in handcuffs.

On November 1st, 2006, Officer Cariol Horne arrived at the scene of a domestic disturbance to find that another officer, Gregory Kwiatkowski, had already placed one of the suspects, Neal Mack, under arrest.

When she arrived, she was immediately disturbed to see Kwiatkowski repeatedly punching Mack in the face and that even after other intervening officers arrived on the scene to assist Horne in removing Kwiatkowski, he got eventually came back to begin choking Mack.
