Police are scared of citizens with cell phones that have video capability. Citizens can record what the police do. This woman claims that she was beaten by three police officers. The police took her cell phone and removed the card.
This made it into the local newspaper and onto local TV.
The police are saying nothing. They are hoping this will blow over. I don’t think it will. A lot of people own cell phones. They will notice.
Here is the description of her condition: bruised face, bruised arm, bruised lips:
Lewis’ husband, Sebastian Prevot, was taken into custody Friday morning and charged with resisting arrest. Houston police declined to comment on his case and said the incident report would not be available until Monday.
On the phone, Prevot said he did not stop far enough behind a stop sign. Prevot said he was pulled over then beaten in front of his northeast Houston home. Lewis, who was inside, came out armed with her cell phone. She said she recorded video until officers took her memory card.
