Looks like justice has been served.

did you read the article? he is facing two felonies and several misdomeanor charges from the incident and the article goes onto say that he could be fired even if found innocent.

The only part relating to him smashing the kid into the ground was misdemeanor harassment, not assault or something like that. All the other charges are for him trying to cover his own ass.

I think the video is pretty clear that he should have been fired the minute that video went up. I understand cops want to protect their own, but their job is to protect the public from violence prone guys like that cop.
