California Cop Called Out For Body Slamming Handcuffed Teen: Outrage Erupts And Investigation Demanded

A San Bernardino police officer's shocking body slam of a 17-year-old girl has ignited public outrage and demands for an independent investigation. The incident unfolded on May 21 outside Food4Less, triggered by a trespassing report. Upon police arrival, several teenagers fled, but Erin remained, only to be confronted by officers. As reported, three officers restrained her while a fourth attempted to cuff her, leading to the violent takedown. Erin suffered significant injuries, including a dislocated wrist and facial cuts requiring stitches. While police contended she “fell,” the video reveals a starkly different narrative, with Erin’s father condemning the officer's actions as disproportionate. The family is now urging California Attorney General Rob Bonta to intervene, seeking justice amid claims of conflicting official accounts.
