[QUOTE="Saintjay, post: 1165844, member: 55969"] You are right regarding that scenario. The use of force was justified. On the police escalation model prior to the wide spread issuing of taser. You would have been justified in the use of a baton to a red area. This would include striking the head....... The problem with that would have resulted in being suspended and investigated. That thought process rightly or wrongly also goes into the decision making when justifying use of force. Policing is hard work, often you deal with the worst of society and the most horrible situations. It can make you very jaded, cynical and world weary. The detectives in child protection deserve so much more. Because they see and deal with cases that truly are equally horric and heart breaking even by general police duties. The police get a bad wrap due to the bad apples. But the majority are hard working decent guys and girls. When like most government jobs they are under paid, under staffed and the demand on services is constantly increasing. [/QUOTE]
