Well, he'll get paid and the cop will probably have nothing happen to him.
I'm usually defending the cops on these, but it sure doesn't look like anyone should be in this case.

He looked a little mouthy to the cop, but I didn't see him "throwing the first punch".

Holy Crap! But what else do you expect when we make cops invulnerable to the law? Unchecked power corrupts.

If the news report around these parts is accurate, the guy deserved to have his arse kicked, just not by the cop.

No doubt he might have deserved a good smacking,..but cops can't be doing that.
On the other hand,..the charges were dropped, so was he guilty of anything other than being a punching bag.?

Ouch...Will he win his lawsuit..? Hope so. Everytime I see things like this it makes me rethink all those 'stories' you hear/d but there were no cameras around so you gave them the benefit of the doubt.

Not a good ideal to get aggressive verbally and wave your hands above the shoulders in the face of someone who has to be on edge constantly. Not a sucker punch when your facing someone and they are confrontational. Where is it written that cop can't throw the first punch.
Might have got by with the first knockout punch but the I told you so following first punch likely will cost someone some money. GW

It's rather chilling to think what might pass as SOP without video surveillance and private cameras. If someone would have told me 40 years ago I'd be seeing police do this stuff now, I would have laughed and called them delusional. Makes me sad.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

It would sure be nice to have more good guys like you stay on, but I'm sure you have more than earned your pension. I hope the next 9 are good and go fast.
