Fire Manzo
Please don't allow Police brutality to continue in our community. Lets set a defined example to other officers, by making sure Manzo cannot continue on in a position of power.
Why is this important?
If you are unfamiliar with the situation with Manzo,
He unfairly beat a 16 year old over the head with a flashlight after being verbally inquired by this young man.
After pulling over the boys father, the boy defended his dad's actions - and was then promptly, dragged out of the car into the squad car, and then beaten over the head with a flashlight.
The city settled with the family, but only to avoid further action - this is not the first time that police brutality has become an issue in our County. If anything ; it has consistently been overlooked.
Please consider the lives at stake , and the reputation it is setting for the rest of the police station, by allowing these men to continue active duty after such violent and selfish acts.
All it takes is the willingness to agree that this is wrong.
That they should be held to the same standards as the citizens trying their best to get through day to day, and that our rights and fair treatment is part of the oath they swore to protect.
By signing this petition, you are simply asking that Manzo be given proper punishment for his actions to avoid further situations such as these.
