Special education student tased by KatyISD school resource officer
NSFW footage in the linked Twitter thread. A 17y/o special education student is upset and tries to walk of campus. Several staff are trying to calm him down and keep him on campus. The SRO intervenes without warning and then tases the student, continuing the use of the taser well after the student is down. He later tells his supervisor that he has no charges to bring against the kid and that he was just “tired of wrestling with him so I popped him.” Pretty terrible IMHO.
To be clear, I think this is not just a problem with the officer, but with the school’s policy of using officers for this type of thing.
