LOS ANGELES (AP) — For the second time in a week, the Los Angeles County sheriff decried the use of force by deputies in the Antelope Valley after the Sheriff’s Department released video on Wednesday of a deputy punching a woman twice in the face as she held her baby.
“The officer in question was following stated procedure. This controversy has put a large psychological toll on them and they need six weeks of paid vacation to recover.”
