That's pretty egregious, what in the hell made her think to drag someone by cuffs through the hallway like that? Not the worst video I've seen, but it's pretty damn bad.

I won't go fully into my career background, but I did work in the RCMP and Corrections prior to running my ass back into IT within the private sector.

One thing I did notice with some female officers, as an excuse for her, was that female officers tended to have this feeling of "proving themselves". Policing is a very male driven sector, so for women that get into the career, they almost have to be twice as "hard", twice as "tough" to be accepted, which is totally unfair IMHO. Not to give this officer an excuse, but I wonder if she felt she had to handle the situation to prove herself?

Who knows, I'm just spitballing here.

In terms of cameras I'm fully for it. Some allege though that it can be used against us as in the general public. The cameras can be used to infringe on our rights, and in some situations, used completely against us, as the camera does not show the entire perspective, which could lead in the cop's favor.

That's why they see police dashcams are a better way of surveying an entire interaction.
