Merced man with no legs Tased twice by police
Community Content
Were Merced police justified in twice Tasering a legless man in a wheelchair, then letting him lie on the ground with his pants down? Merced resident Greg Williams, 40, says police officers were out of line when they Tased him and arrested him earlier this month. Charges have been dropped, and police are conducting an internal investigation.

I have to say if you cant trust your police force and i mean anywhere who can you trust, and to do that to this man that way is just wrong, but he is not the only one who has a unfair encounter with our law enforcement, sometimes i think they just have to much power, im ashamed of them at times....poor guy

they should take the 3 officers in this case and have them sit on the curb with their privates hanging out and their hands tied behind them. Maybe they might have a little more feeling and be lucky they can walk. A terrible thing to happen to anyone. Discusting.

That's just horrible and very unfair, poor guy I really feel for him and I stand behind him 100%. I just don'y understand why those officers are still working and not on leave, because if the situation might have been on the contrary I am very sure our people would have been incarcerated and not having the right to make investigation procedures first like in this case, investigation procedures first before they disniss these officers that is not right and I just hope someone in our justice system comes forward to stand by this poor handicap resident who indeed has all the right to his privacy.
