Former Cop Throws Woman to Ground | Orlando News

Description

A woman who was violently thrown to the ground by a police officer during a drunk driving arrest is now suing the city and the officer, claiming constitutional violations. The incident, captured on video, left her with a permanent scar and seven stitches. The officer, Jacob Cannon, later pleaded no contest to felony battery, received jail time and probation, and expressed remorse. The victim, Shanna McRee, also took responsibility for her DUI, but now seeks damages for physical and emotional trauma in federal court. The city has not yet responded, though its police chief apologized and said the incident does not reflect department standards.
