This is a terrible injustice.

Dropping her daughter off for elementary school, Charlena Cook, eight months pregnant in Barstow, California, ended up being forcibly handcuffed and wrestled to the ground for no reason whatsoever. Not only was this excessive, the entire ordeal was completely uncalled for.The ACLU fought to have the video released and also announced that all charges were dropped against Charlena.

As you will see in that video, an employee of the school called police after she claimed she and the pregnant mother argued over a parking spot—which is not illegal. Nobody was assaulted and no property damage took place.

The police, though, were determined that a crime had been committed that required the use of brute force.

Warning, it's hard to watch.
