Sacramento, California’s “hero cop” is facing his third federal lawsuit for police brutality. Sheriff’s Deputy Paul “Scotte” Pfeifer is being accused of using excessive force in the violent arrest of a 51-year-old. The victim, John Reyes, told the Sacramento Bee, that in 2009 Pfeifer “tasered, pepper-sprayed and beat plaintiff in the middle of the street, in broad daylight, with his department-issued flashlight. The wrongful attack was witnessed by many citizens who were appalled by the conduct, some of whom recorded the deputy’s illegal conduct.” This is not only the third lawsuit that Pfeifer has faced since 2009, but in each case he has been accused of brutally beating a suspect with his police issued flashlight, in this case, leaving Reyes with a “broken nose, broken ribs, a concussion and a large gash above his left eye.” Reyes and Pfeifer reportedly got into a verbal argument when Reyes asked Pfeifer to move his police cruiser, which was clearly blocking the sidewalk. Reyes told local reporters that he asked nicely twice, but the deputy refused to comply with the law he was sworn to enforce. Pfeifer became enraged, exited his cruiser and used pepper spray and his Taser on Reyes, even though he had committed no crime whatsoever. Finally, Pfeifer began brutally beating Reyes with his heavy police flashlight. Pfeifer arrested and charged Reyes with resisting arrest. The Sacramento County District Attorney dropped these spurious charges. But that didn’t take back the beating that Reyes received at the hands of this so-called “hero cop.” Back in 2014, Pfeifer also beat Mickey Donohue, who was fleeing police. Even after he stopped, Pfeifer needlessly initiated violence against him, beating him so severely that he was left with a $12,989 hospital bill. The third case against Pfeifer was filed after he beat a 25-year-old woman who he hit, dragged, punched and pepper-sprayed. That was all over a noise complaint at a party. “He basically threw me on the ground,” Solomia Treshchuk said. “They hogtied me, they pepper-sprayed me and hit me.” We asked Pfeifer’s department if he has been suspended – even on paid leave. They told us he is still on active detective duty. Watch the video below and help SPREAD THE WORD! (Article by Jackson Marciana and M. David; image screen capture via YouTube)

Well, we can stop reading right there because we all know how this is going to end. Oh, that's right - in misterwhite "cops are gods" Bizzaro world, police don't have to obey laws that are enforced on the average serf.
