Spring Valley Teen Brutally Accosted By Cop Is a Recent Orphan [UPDATED]
LatestAs if this story could get any worse, the South Carolina teenage girl who was seen being violently thrown around in her classroom by a police officer in a video earlier this week is reported to have recently lost her mother.
State Representative and attorney Todd Rutherford told the Daily News the girl is currently in foster care. While previous news reports stated she was not hurt during the incident with Deputy Ben Fields, he says she is suffering injuries on her face, neck and arm. “He weighs about 300 pounds,” Rutherford told WLTX. “She is a student who is 16 years old who now has a cast on her arm, a band-aid on her neck, and neck and back problems. There’s something wrong here.”
