Pittsburgh Cops Tased Man While He Was Praying For His Dead Son In ER: Lawsuit

-




This is another case of cops on steroids and acting like over zealous brutes. When I saw this heartbreaking story on my local news, it again reminds us just how low law enforcement in this country has sunk.


This man was clearly grieving and the police had no right to taze him or even disturb him in his last moments with his son.The police claim the man, Rev, Earl Baldwin, was prohibiting the young man from medical care, but is is vastly clear, that Mileek Grissom is already dead.


Another note I’d like to add, the man who was tazed is a well known and liked pastor in the area.

 

Here’s what went down:

 

The suit accuses an officer of unlawfully using his Taser against Rev. Earl Baldwin Jr. on June 24, 2012. Baldwin said that at the time, he was in the emergency room of UPMC Mercy Hospital attempting to pray for his stepson, 23-year-old Mileek Grissom. Grissom was shot and killed that day while reportedly trying to break up a fight.


“I needed to tell him his family was going to be OK,” Baldwin told WPXI this week. “I was going to do everything I could to make sure they were OK.” Footage of the incident shows police restraining a visibly upset Baldwin for a few seconds before another officer pulls out his Taser and uses it on him. Grissom’s mother, Tori Baldwin, was stopped by authorities and not allowed to enter the hospital.

Experts Discuss 6 Reasons To Stop Cleaning Ears with Cotton Swabs (Video)

by  N.Morgan For decades the public was told that Q-tips are beneficial to our ears. Medical Q-tips remove excess wax from the ear, causing a sweet tingling sensation. However, although seemingly innocent, cotton Q-tips can be a great threat to your ears. Cotton buds are first of all, used improperly. There is no clear instruction on how to use a Q-tip rightfully, which ultimately leads to many people experiencing ear damage. Oftentimes serious, Q-tips are known to cause infections in the ear, aggravating the situation even further. What’s more, some now urge that Q-tips may be entirely responsible for an unwelcome brain infection. The Case that Changed the Idea of Q-tips A story on ear infections has really exposed the dangers of using Q-tips. Namely, a man went to the emergency room, following a bad seizure. The man explained how he experienced pain lasting for a couple of hours, followed by a discharge from his ear. At one point the man also lost some of...
