Let's Go to the Tape

The Prince George's County, Maryland, police force has suspended one officer and may take sanctions against others for the unprovoked beating of a University of Maryland student. The officers attacked John McKenna during a celebration of Maryland's win over Duke University in basketball. The officers had charged McKenna with assaulting an officer and disorderly conduct but after local media showed video of the incident to the prosecutor's office all charges were dropped and the police department began an investigation of the officers.
