A cop tased him over a tag light, then justified it with alarming charges | PAR – Everything Law and Order Blog

David Michaud had just checked into a motel in Hot Springs, MT when he was approached by local police and ordered to present identification. After Michaud demanded to know why he was being questioned, a contentious exchange ensued that ended with police tasering Michaud multiple times. Michaud, who is Chamorro, was asked by officers whether he was “tribal” before being tasered and arrested. Police gave multiple and conflicting reasons for Michaud’s treatment, from an alleged busted tail light to failing to present ID. Once they had Michaud detained, local authorities pressed DUI charges against him. Police Accountability Report investigates this case of police abuse of power and violence in small town Montana, speaking directly to David Michaud about his ordeal.

  1. You dont call a cop "DUDE" It shows disrespect for the law, your arrogance, how little you care for others. Call your mother "dude" see how she reacts !

  2. Abolish qualified immunity and it will stop almost instantly. They don’t have the balls to take responsibility

  3. I would like to see the brand of tail lights cops always see that magically turn off when cops see them but stay on all the rest of the time.

  4. She actually mentioned and questioned whether or not he was being racially profiled since it had happened many times in the past. SMDH

  5. Regarding Jackson, MS – I am wondering if they are going to use that facility to practice hunting black men. Grab people from the surrounding city, then turn them loose in Cop City for hunting purposes….

  6. It is resisting tense up arm it is well that is what they said when I got arrested and got choke hold for like 3seconds and slam to the ground hit my forehead and a skinned knee ,I thought I was a criminal it was hard cause when you young you were taught to respect police cause they here to protect you, boi ! My parents were wrong and I was wrong 😢😕I taught and believed I was a terrible criminal ,it changed my opinion on police never will be needing they assistance anytime soon I think they would killed me just for being Hispanic

  7. Montana is a very racist state towards Native American people and there law enforcement is 10 worst towards any minority race that have a tint of brown or darker skin. It’s Always Been racist like that since Montana became a state.
