Shocking Video of Cop Choking, Kneeing Middle School Girls Highlights a Disturbing Trend
Corpus Christi, TX — The parents of a Cunningham Middle School student have filed a complaint against a Corpus Christi ISD police officer after he attacked multiple middle school girls while breaking up a scuffle in the schoolyard.
Alicia Cavazos said that the officer brutally attacked her daughter while he was breaking up a fight between her and another student.
“He handled the situation all wrong. The officer put his hand to my daughter’s throat and then he put his knee to her throat, too,” Cavazos said in the complaint.
Cavazos says that the officer didn’t just go after the two girls in the fight, but also a third girl who attempted to intervene.
School district spokeswoman Leanne Winkler Libby told Caller-Times that the incident is being investigated and that the officer will remain on duty.
A cellphone recording of the incident taken by another student shows the officer using excessive force, treating the young girls like they were criminals, instead of children in a schoolyard quarrel. In the video you can clearly see the officer with his hands on the girl’s throat, forcing her to the ground with all of his weight.
He then follows by putting his knee on her throat before flipping her over forcefully. Police Chief Kirby Warnke said in a statement that his officers are “trained to use force when they believe it’s necessary to restore order.”
However, while there are a number of officers at the department who work at schools, there is actually no training about how to deal with children.
Warnke then made the absurd suggestion that middle school girls pose just as much of a threat as a full sized adult. “Anyone can have a knife, anyone can have a gun, anyone can scratch your eye. Two people can overpower you,” Warnke said.
Warnke went on to say if an officer is justified to use force it does not matter how large or small their suspect is. “Trying to qualify by size or weight is not viable. Generally, it’s best (for students) to follow instructions or not fight in public,” Warnke said.
There is no doubt that people will rush to defend the officer in this situation because we live in a society where police are allowed to inflict whatever level of violence they want on anyone who disobeys them. In the case of these girls, of course, they should not be fighting, but children in middle school fight, that is a normal part of growing up.
Two teenage girls fighting one another is vastly different than being choked out and trampled by a man twice their size. It could have been very easy for this cop to simply pull one of the girls away and diffuse the situation without getting involved himself, but instead, he chose to enter combat with two young girls. Sadly, as schools across the country rely more and more on police to force student compliance, instead of training and common sense, this scenario becomes more common.
In less than a week, TFTP has reported on two other instances of school police caught on video violently attacking children. In one video, a massive deputy grabs a 16-year-old boy by the neck and sprays him directly in the face with pepper spray. The boy was not the one fighting. In another video, another massive deputy grabs another 16-year-old boy and body slams him to the ground like a rag doll. The incident was so overwhelmingly disturbing that the school had to be placed on lockdown after students began to revolt.

Violence in a school is a widespread phenomenon all over the world, but the policeman used excessive force to resolve the conflict, and this is a mistake because they are weak children and must be treated with soft treatment, it is a wonderful article my friend,@johnvibes
WWE wrestling types!!
The most disgusting thing about this situation is how typical it's becoming. This is all by design- it's a slow boiling frog psy op prepping people for the Rothchild's owned police state.
All of these acts of violence are just sad. I bet those same tyrants go home and call others terrorist.

STOPAnyone else who did this would be arrested for child abuse. The officer should be held to the same standard as anyone else. It's child abuse, plain and simple, and there is no excuse for it. Unless someone is pointing a weapon at him, there are all kinds of other, non-violent ways to handle fighting children. This type of behavior disgusts me.
Bad cops!
I watched the video, and don't think he could have torn those two apart with lesser force. He barely managed it at all.
I reckon the problem is that cops were involved to begin with. I'm just glad he didn't shoot them, because becoming physically involved in a violent altercation between people can indeed escalate instantly, and cops are taught not to do it. I think he thought he would more easily break up the fight between what he thought of as little girls, when they were actually adult-sized.
Teenagers are amongst the deadliest of warriors, or at least those that kill the most enemies around the world. Most armies are recruiting teens today, and the age of recruitment is higher now than it has been, particularly during times of war.
These 'children' were his size, and so focused on their fight they didn't even notice him until he physically forced them apart. My oldest son was almost 2 meters tall by the age of 13, and almost a black belt. He was a formidable opponent in a fight, and consequently never got in one fight his whole life.
I did see a 30+ year old ex-con jokingly try to put him in a chokehold from behind when he was 12. Within a second that guy was on the ground, and my kid had his adam's apple in his grasp, with his other arm drawn back for a killing blow.
When allowed to speak, the adult waved his hands in submission, and said "I'll never do that again." Nothing further resulted, no injuries, etc... He never did do that, or anything like it, ever again, either.
That was at 12. Do not mistake minority for incapacity. Kids at puberty become adults in capacity, and pretending they're still children is disingenuous. Of course they've still got a lot to learn. Who doesn't? Plenty of kids have learned plenty of stuff by the time they hit puberty. They're not children anymore.
