Half a dozen deputies spent minutes kicking, punching, and bludgeoning robbery suspect Francis Pusok in Southern California today, all of which was caught on video by NBC Channel 4 Southern California (whoops). San Berdino County Sheriff John McMahon said he wouldn’t “jump to conclusions at this point,” but will undertake a thorough internal review. “If our deputy sheriffs did something wrong,” he said, “they’ll be put off work and they’ll be dealt with appropriately, all in accordance with the law as well as our department policy.”
Mr. McMahon: “If” has nothing to do with it.
