Till resist do us part.
Um....BRAVO! Nicely done.
I am rather surprised that they actually did anything given that the perpetrator was A: a cop and B: a woman.
Typically they'd arrest the husband regardless of who was committing the violence.
Did she shoot her dog too?
"Brown, who was in uniform at the time, drove her patrol car to her husband's house forced her way in and struck him with her flashlight."
I wonder if she yelled, "Stop resisting, stop resisting,..." the whole time?
She probably needs more training to remember to yell that while beating her spouse/children/neighbors.
That and the fact that she went for the flashlight rather than the preferred tazer. And she also didn't shoot any dogs. She clearly needs some remedial training.
Its nice to see an officer who believes in good, old-fashioned flashlight beatings. All this technology so often gets in the way of a good ass-kicking with a blunt instrument the way we've been doing it for 300,000 years.

Sexism. Men get paid vacation.
There is no sexy like crazy sexy. What do you want to bet he was two timing his girlfriend who then told the crazy wife because she was pissed about not being the only mistress?
You think the woman in that picture is sexy?
No. But apparently her husband did or he wouldn't have married her. Apparently, he valued the crazy part the most.
Wait... I thought that was a picture of the husband and the horrific injuries to his face.
Racist!
