15 year old girl gets dropped by police officer

[JDawg1536]

Five level of force:

1.) Verbal- (raising your voice, screaming, demanding a request)
2.) Physical- (Pushing, Slamming, Grabbing, Wrestling)
3.) Mechanical- (Baton Use, or flashlight usage)
4.)Electronic- (Taser, Mace, Pepper Spray)
5.) Deadly- (Firearm)


Now there is also some exceptions where an officer can use two levels above force being used again them. For example: I (6'3" 270lbs) am running full speed at a 140lb female indicating that I am going to tackle her, she would be justified by spraying me with mace or tasing me. In this situation, based on the totality of the circumstance, the little girl in no way shape or form posed as a threat to he officer, and he was not in the right by using one level of force above the one being used against him.

In your example, that would be the use of defensive tactics against an assaulitve subject. That's a level four response to a level four threat.
