New Mexico Prosecutors to Seek Charges Against Ex-Officers
LAS CRUCES, N.M. — May 26, 2015, 2:48 PM ET

New Mexico prosecutors announced Tuesday they will ask a grand jury to indict two former Las Cruces police officers recently fired following an investigation into an alleged incident of police brutality.

State Attorney General Hector Balderas and District Attorney Mark D'Antonio said their offices intend to jointly prosecute ex-Officers Richard Garcia and Danny Salcido.

Lawyers for Ross Flynn have said he was severely beaten while handcuffed in a police holding cell on Dec. 23.

Flynn was later hospitalized with a skull fracture. He had been arrested after allegedly pointing a rifle at his neighbor over a parking space and then ignoring officer's commands at the scene.

I dont however think he should get 12 million but 50,000 to 300,000 and medical and lawyer feels more like what he should be awarded but thats just my opinion.

By watching the video, I learned the correct term for kicking people is "knee strikes." Sounds almost dignified, doesn't it?

Be discerning when you must administer knee strikes.[/center]
