Police had claimed the 28-year-old autistic man, who had a mental age of seven, pushed a PC in the chest before a Taser was used on him


THE case against an autistic man Tasered for assaulting a police officer collapsed after CCTV showed cops lied.

The 28-year-old, who has a mental age of seven, could have been jailed if it went to trial.


Footage found by the man’s mother showed police Tasering the 28-year-old who has a mental age of seven


But video found by his mum showed the cops’ account did not match what was in the footage.

Two cops attended the incident after Paul, whose surname is protected, allegedly broke a window.

They claimed he pushed a PC in the chest before a Taser was used.

Charges were dropped when his mum Margaret found film showing a different scenario before a trial in Bristol in 2015.

Avon and Somerset police defended the cops and the watchdog cleared them of wrongdoing.

Margaret called for Tasers to be investigated.

Lying is their job - which they see as justifying themselves to the public.

The message sent by letting them off without punishment is

Keep lying.

Isn't The SUN a tabloid in the UK?

Sometimes I think people become police officers for very wrong reasons...

The news always has some horrible incident or dirty dealings surrounding "people of power."

That "power" is just not well handled by many people it seems... Sad really.

The British police officers blatantly lied to cover up their obvious wrongful use of a taser because if it wasn't wrongful use there would be no need to lie and also to wrongfully charge and prosecute the autistic man since the charges were dropped when the film evidence was submitted. The police officers falsified evidence and were obviously willing to commit perjury in court which is a very serious criminal offence that is usually punishable by a custodial sentence. It was very lucky that the film evidence was found or the autistic man would have almost certainly also been falsely convicted and wrongfully punished, in fact for everything the autistic man has been through already he should be receiving compensation, but since the officers were cleared of any wrongdoing this probably won't happen.

So how can the police officers possibly be cleared of any wrongdoing? It is beyond belief and it makes me think that there's not only deep corruption within the British police force (we all know there is a certain level), but even the independent watchdog is extremely questionable which is even more worrying. I wonder what strings were pulled to get the watchdog to agree to clear the lying police officers? How deep does this corruption actually go?

Any police officers that were willing to wrongfully use a taser on someone, blatantly lie, commit perjury and also wrongfully convict someone (especially when vulnerable) should lose their job and also be prosecuted themselves. Because they've wrongfully got away with this corruption it increases the risk of similar corruption continuing in future within the British police force.
