Dashcam: Man Nearly Blinded After Cop Tasers Him in Eye for No Reason

[cyclonescott]

A man has filed a federal lawsuit against a Fayette County, OH Sheriff’s Deputy for excessive force.

Matthew David Kelly was riding with his friend who was pulled over for suspected DUI and arrested by state trooper Bryan Cook. Kelly was asleep in the the passengers seat.

Then overzealous deputy, Clinton Sines, came over after Cook tried several times to wake Kelly up.

When Kelly finely comes to, he is obviously disoriented and begins flailing his arms. At this time Sines tries to remove him from the vehicle, but does not realize that Kelly is restrained by his seat belt.

Not giving Kelly a chance to remove the seat belt, he kept pulling and pulling and then pointed the taser at his face and fired. A prong from the taser struck Kelly in his right eye.

“Get on the ground, get on the ground, now, get on the ground, I’ll do it again, get on the ground,” Deputy Sines yelled.

Kelly stood there with his hands on his head and appeared confused. The deputy activated the Taser for a second time, and according to the lawsuit, “sent a second surge of high voltage electricity” into Mr. Kelly’s eye.

Eyeeeeeee right in the fucking eye man

[YALE]

I bet his optic nerve will never be the same, and you know that cop just yanked the prong back out.

Ye Gods that makes me cringe.

[yellowstang]

Man, he had an eyeful night!

[racrguy]

I bet he keeps an eye on the cops from now on.

That's a rough sight.


In a situation like that, I'm going to return the favor. It may take years, but I'd pay him back. Fuck that deputy, and fuck the sheriff as well. The "is he buckled in or something" comment shows the speed at which cops think, yet we allow them to have tools that can alter or end lives.

Eye cant watch that crap.

The general population kills and injures more of its own each year than the police can even dream of.

In before the obligatory "well, the general public doesn't take an oath" bullcrap.

Hind sight being 20 20, they may have wanted to call a cab.

There's also 311 million Americans versus a couple hundred thousand cops so if cops had more kills than the population in general, I'm betting cops would be held in prisons by the population since at that point, cops wouldn't even be trying to pretend to uphold the law and the public trust.
