The widely publicized beating of an unarmed University of Maryland student by members of the Prince George's, Md. County Police Department following a Maryland-Duke basketball game likely didn't surprise anyone who's followed that particular suburban Washington police force over the years.
For the PG County police have earned a reputation for administering beatings to unarmed and innocent citizens and sometimes even shooting them to death.
The practices by the county's police department were deemed so illegal that the Bush Administration's Justice Department sued the county and won court-approved oversight of the police department. Justice Department supervision clearly didn't solve all the problems in that force.
lol... cops.

That one was really bad.
One of my friends who goes to Maryland sent that to me a few days ago.
I've been hearing stories from him, and another guy who goes there about what happened that night. The cops were apparently very trigger happy with the pepper spray.
That kid got fucked up though, it didn't look like he did anything. In fact, he stopped and backed down.

Sounds like this is more of a department problem... you know it's bad when the BUSH ADMINISTRATION thinks you're being a bit rough.
