And while he's waiting for the backup, how does he keep them from leaving??
KIRO TV thought they had this huge scoop and started the ball rolling with the headine and a few seconds of video. Since then it has been exposed that the the guy who video'd the whole thing had 20 minutes of video (which he planned on selling all along). This cop acted accordingly to the circumstances created. The "punch" to the face did exactly what he needed it to do. I wish he had tazed her...It would have looked better and it would have shocked the shit out of the mouthy bitch who had previously kicked another police officer in the gut...She's trouble and becaue of her age she has gotten away with similar behaviors with school and juvenile authorities.
