Police Brutality: Officers Crush Woman’s Face During Routine DUI Arrest

44-year-old Christina West was arrested on August 10 for an alleged DUI.
A video has now been released, that shows West getting her face smashed into a police car during the arrest. She was screaming the entire time.
As reported by the Huffington Post:
State Attorney Willie Meggs called the footage “very disturbing.”
“I am extremely upset,” Meggs told the Democrat. “This is a very disturbing situation to me, and I’m dealing with it.”
Meggs also told WCTV that the video was “one of the most disturbing videos” he’s ever seen.
A spokesperson for the Tallahassee Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Huffington Post. The Democrat reports that there is an internal investigation underway.
