PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - The suspended Lincoln police officer accused of kicking a female suspect is expected to take the stand in his trial Monday.
The defense is expected to call at least two people to the stand. An expert in defense, and Officer Edward Krawetz.
Krawetz is accused of felony assault of a woman outside Twin River slot parlor in Lincoln back in May of 2009.
•Cop charged with assault of a deadly weapon
Prosecutors say video images from a security camera show Officer Krawetz kicking Donna Levesque of Uxbridge, Massachusetts, in the back of the head after she made a motion toward him with her leg.
That video was shown in court on Wednesday.
She was sitting on a curb in handcuffs outside Twin River after the police had escorted her out of a bar inside for what Officer Krawetz 's partner characterized Thursday in court as "intoxicated, angry and belligerent behavior."
The two police officers were waiting for a third Lincoln police officer who would drive Donna Levesque to the Lincoln police station where she would be charged with disorderly conduct.
On Thursday, the defendant's fellow police officer at Twin River that evening testified that Officer Krawetz never expressed concern for his own safety, never said he feared serious bodily injury, never yelled out that he was in pain and never sought medical attention.

, but seriously jk! Nice stereotype though! It makes sense for a lot of cops that I've had the unfortunate displeasure of dealing with.
