Brickbat: Boot to the Face

A federal judge has sentenced Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Sgt. Eric Huxley to one year and one day in prison followed by six months home detention after Huxley pleaded guilty to felony deprivation of rights under color of law. Huxley stomped the face of Jermaine Vaughn, who was handcuffed and on the ground. Vaughn was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, both misdemeanors, but those charges were later dropped.

It's good to see a cop go to prison for an assault FOR ONCE, but the maximum penalty under that statute is DEATH.
Looked it up and he's currently suspended without pay. So he's got a job waiting for him when he gets out.
OK, so here it is: On the ground AND in handcuffs, no more QI.
On the ground, not in cuffs?

We need more face stomping rulings, right?
I have a home-based business and make a respectable $60k per week, which is incredible given that a year ago I was unemployed due to a poor economy. I was given these instructions as a gift, and it is now my ne-02 responsibility to spread kindness and make them available to everyone.
