Police brutality? Cops use choke hold on video in PCP woman arrest, sued for $1 million
- 9 years ago
PCP is bad, kids. And if you smoke it, you might end up like Massachusetts resident, Maylene Maldonado. Especially if you're in a town where the cops are willing to cover each other's asses.
On February 3rd, 2013, Maldonado was arrested by Chicopee Police, and charged with assault and battery of a police officer. She admitted on video to smoking PCP.
"Did you take any alcohol or drugs tonight?" Sergeant Mike Major asked her.
"Yes." she replied.
"Which ones?"
"PCP… and… cigarettes."
The officers, seem calm if but on edge, until Sergeant Mike Major informs her that if she doesn't cooperate, "Something bad will happen."
But Maldonado doesn't cooperate. Even though she started out calm, she suddenly switches her tack and starts loudly demanding that the cops reach into her mouth and unscrew her lip bars. She claims her lip is bleeding since an officer slammed her head into a wall.
Her screaming escalates until Sergeant Major loses his cool and grabs Maldonado by the neck. Once on the floor, with a pile of cops on top of her, Maldonado changes her mind about not wanting a lawyer.
Although an internal investigation found Sergeant Mike Major innocent of any wrongdoing, in 2013 his colleague William Jebb gave this tape to city hall.
A judge decided Major had assaulted Maldonado, and he was pushed into retirement. Deputy William Jebb, who turned over the tape, is now Chief of Police in Chicopee.
This year, Maldonado has filed a $1 million dollar federal civil rights lawsuit against the city of Chicopee, and eight police officers including Mike Major and the old chief of police.
