A former cop of the year in Florida was caught on body-cam footage taunting and inciting a teen he detained, a new report says.

An internal investigation by the Orlando Police Department found that Officer Jonathan Mills did “taunt, belittle, humiliate and even incite … violence” while arresting three teens in May, after another cop stopped them for loitering outside of a liquor store, the Orlando Sentinel said.

Mills, who was named the department’s 2018 Patrol Officer of the Year, was verbally reprimanded after he was seen on video grabbing the hands of one of the teens and commenting about his “soft hands,” according to a summary of the internal probe obtained by the newspaper.

“These soft hands have been through something,” Mills told the teen. “You have no marks on your knuckles, you’ve never been in a fight.”

Mills then grabbed the cellphone of one teen to stop him from using it and tossed it on the ground, Internal Affairs investigator Mike Stanley wrote.

Mills then said to the other two teens, “I hope he runs,” according to Stanley’s review.

Mills claimed that he grabbed the teen’s hands to break “the cycle of whatever he’s thinking about,” but Stanley noted that the officer didn’t remove a screwdriver within the teen’s reach – providing doubt as to whether the suspect “posed an immediate threat” as Mills maintained.

The officer’s remark that he hoped one of the teens would run also “serves to discredit” Mills’ account of the incident, Stanley determined.

Mills’ behavior was intended solely to “taunt, belittle, humiliate and even incite a person to do violence,” according to the internal probe launched after the mother of one of the teens filed a complaint with police.

The mother, who is black, accused Mills of racial bias, alleging that the white cop spoke to her in an “angry and abrupt” manner when asked about the arrest.

Mills denied that allegation, as well as claims that he treated a white woman at the scene — who was considered a mentor to one of the teens – differently than the black mother.

A review of body-cam footage found insufficient evidence to support the mother’s claims, Stanley said.

Mills denied being discourteous to the teens, who were behaving in a “confrontational” manner and making anti-police remarks, according to the officer.

The teens were arrested for violating a disorderly conduct ordinance, but prosecutors later dropped charges against at least two of them, both 19. Additional details regarding the third teen, who was 17 at the time, were not available since he’s a juvenile, the newspaper reports.

Mills has been previously named in two excessive-force lawsuits that were settled by the city. He was also verbally reprimanded after being accused of calling a black woman’s hairdo “sad” during a traffic stop in 2016.

“That hairdo is sad,” Mills told the woman. “You’ve got to get your hair done, girl.”

Orlando Police Chief Orlando Rolón announced in June that the department would review its annual award procedures after Mills was named its officer of the year. The recognition was not rescinded, the Sentinel reports.

A department spokesman, meanwhile, told the newspaper that Rolón isn’t worried about Mills staying on the force.

“Because discipline is also intended as a corrective measure,” the spokesman said.
