"Disturbing Bodycam Footage Reveals LA Sheriff's Deputy Assaulting Mother Holding Baby"

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is under investigation after releasing body camera footage showing a deputy punching a mother in the face while she held a baby during a traffic stop. The incident, which occurred in July 2022, has been deemed "completely unacceptable" by Sheriff Robert Luna. The deputy involved is not currently in the field, and the department has referred the case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office and the FBI for further investigation. This incident follows another use-of-force investigation launched last week after a deputy was captured on video slamming a woman to the ground and using OC spray on her.
