judicial = judge = court... the very same folks that gave the command to the officers to arrest the guy, who then began to resist, resulting in the sitting and eletrocuting |

Also the magic trick is done with two contortionsts. One on top with legs pressed to chest (you can see his legs if you look carefully) and the other with torso inside the suspiciously large table. The second person climbs inside the table leaving the leg casts empty for the top half chap. |

The concept is a principle of the constitution. The legal effect is the interpretation of that principle. In the same was as a contract exist as an abstract 'meeting of minds' (the document itself is merely a record of some of that agreement) this principle includes a 'natural right' not to (for the sake of argument) be sat on or electrocuted. How each country chooses to enact this will vary but the underlying principle is considered enshrined in the constitution. Perhaps a more accurate term would be calling it a 'Hobbsian' natural right, but I thought that Habeas Corpus would be more readily understood. My point is that you shouldn't sit on people and electrocute them because even if the law at first sight seems to condone it the constitution doesn't. I don't think that the law enforcement chap commenting below realises that. |

thomas, what does Habeas Corpus have to do with this case? By definition, taken from the link that you posted... "It protects the individual from harming him or herself, or from being harmed by the judicial system." The key part of the quote is... "the judicial system", meaning the court. Your take on the definition does not apply because Habeas Corpus is for prisoners who feel that are being incarcerated unlawfully. |

Wow... you people are hard headed. Let's recap...a. The guy had a touch of the crazy in him.
b. The cops should have, after the use of force, made some attempt to catch him. Lazy, I guess.
c. The force was justified. He was not complying.
d. They told him why they were arresting him. He had a warrant. The officers don't have to tell him what the warrant is for, because there are times when the officers don't even know. Folks, that's just the way it is. I spent several years in law enforcement. I'm not going by what someone told me, I'm going by what the law says. |

He is Jewish (Yahwah) and extremely contradictory. His wife should get him help. He's not a hero. Yes, they DO have to state the arrest charge, however, they CAN hold him because of his erratic behavior, without a charge. They CAN claim they were taking him into custody for safety reasons. Cops seemed overwhelmed to state charge, so it's their mistake. Technically, it's not arrest, but for protection. Secondly, he is a complete moron for not cooperating. And life sucks. I was taken in for something I didn't do, but something someone claimed I did to "get even with me" at my college. Let's put it like this: This was a unit where they put suspected criminals who are a danger (whether claim was founded or not) with no separation from people under "observation". dog kennel cleaner. Denied meds. Sad thing is, they deny you rights, telling you you have none, even if you are completely calm and willing. He had the camera- if he were calm on tape, that would be one |

I like how the cops run for about 20 feet, realize that running is work and then give up |

That looked like, sounded like, and acted like my Coach Herb. Not to mention he recently changed his name... That's a freaky flashforward. |

VirtualParty, are we just going to ignore the part of the video where the officers told him he had a warrant for his arrest? Just to recap, a warrant is an order from a judge to arrest. |

?He was resisting arrest, we don't know what happened before the beginning of the tape, and it sounds like they were arresting him for a reason.Even if he wasn't doing anything wrong to begin with - just the fact that he was being disobedient towards the police is enough to get him arrested. I wish they would have taken his crazy-ass downtown.
Anyway, funny vid, crazy mo fo!" He can't resist an arrest if they have no reason to arrest him in the first place. They never said what they were charging him for. So what they were doing was assault, not arrest. This guy is a freaking hero. |
