Philly SWAT officer seen pepper spraying kneeling protesters on I-676 turns himself in and will be charged
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I've got a few to describe this uniformed asshole.
"The Philadelphia SWAT officer captured on video last month pulling down protesters’ masks and pepper spraying them as they knelt on the Vine Street Expressway turned himself in Wednesday to face criminal charges — the second officer to be arrested for alleged misconduct during days-long protests over police brutality that coursed through the city in May and June.
Richard P. Nicoletti, 35, will face charges of simple assault, reckless endangerment, official oppression, and possession of an instrument of crime, District Attorney Larry Krasner said."
^^^ New Philly DA Larry Krasner is cut from a different mold than most DAs. It's a welcome change.
