We're the Only Ones Irresistable Enough

In the passenger seat, Whitehead trembled and stuttered when Hires asked for his identification and ordered him out of the truck. He screamed when Hires threw him against the truck, beat him with a police-issued flashlight -- and then tased him while he ran back to the woman's house, the records say...

Whitehead, 27, wound up in the hospital so doctors could remove the Taser prongs from his arm. Then he was booked into Lake County Jail, arrested on suspicion of resisting a police officer with violence.
Where do you think Whitehead would be right now if he had resisted--with the appropriate level of force?

Any bets on whether this cretin is charged with everything a citizen would be?

Aggravated assault, aggravated battery, felony abuse of official power, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, stalking, extortion, conspiracy to commit the above.

Hell, does anybody even want to bet on the likelihood this bastard will get any jail time?

nope, but I bet he's hired on at another dept since he shows such potential, as displayed in this case.
