26-year-old Akinyemi Borishade, a police officer with the
Jacksonville Sheriff's Office has been fired and charged with battery
after he repeatedly punched a woman in the chest while she was in
handcuffs. In a video released by the police department, Borishade is
seen attacking a bar worker, 31-year-old Mayra Martinez who was charged
with trespassing and resisting police.
According to a police report, Martinez was drunk and
belligerent when two officers, including Borisade, attempted to remove
her from the bar where she worked after she quit on her first day. She
kicked out at them and tried to bite them.
Sheriff Mike Williams said in a press conference:
'There are ways that this could have been dealt with without striking her. He could have turned her around and held her in a transporting position that they are trained in.'
The shocking video begins with a handcuffed Martinez walking towards towards Borisade who pushes her back against a wall.
Martinez then lifts her leg and appears to kick the officer
and he launches into an attack of at least three punches to her stomach
and chest.
Borisade, who was hired by the force in March 2015, holds
the woman against the wall until another officer puts his arm on the
officer's shoulder.
The woman is released and slumps to the floor.
At least two other officers and other bystanders witness the attack but do nothing to intervene or help the woman.
In the rest of the video Martinez is left alone on her knees.
Corrections officers who witnessed the incident reported it
to their supervisors, and it was investigated by the Jacksonville
Sheriff's Office Integrity Unit.

Who knows what the woman must have said to the man. Maybe slave or monkey. Don't be quick to judge he is a human being. White Police man that shot black dude what happened to him. The three of them are still in the force.
There's always a name if it's one tribe,your blog is now known to promote tribal bigotries,too bad.
Trust 9ja always showing demselves. They will never change
Anon 12:03 shut up! Is that the only thing you can deduce from this story? Your kind always view everything through myopic point of view! No Nigerian, whether from any tribe, that will not feel pity on the man for losing his job due to overzealousness!

Goaldyn Boy or whatever it is you are addressed by, If you don't have a sound sense of judgement, I'll advise you quit writing thrash on blog sites. I don't think anyone ever taught you not to hit women. Cos he's Nigerian you think he should be vindicated? The woman in question is in cuffs, if you missed that part out. What threat does she pose to him in that condition?
If she was black it would be a diff story.
THEY decided to take police credit and show example using a Nigerian,black police..when this happens all the time if you resist arrest and stuff...what has happened each time a white police man shoots/kills unarmed and innocent black men which we hv seen over and over again...F u guys..remain small they for call am BH
Its a pity. The woman must have said something. She even tried to bite them,what of if she did, and tried kicking him. Who knows? Why he acted that way. But he is not justified because he is trained.
my thots exactly,this one ws sacked immediately
Hmmm
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
Cos he is black.. if he ws white the video won't b out so fast..
Lol...
okay
SCARFACE
You should too, carry your cross!!
That's conspiracy, because he is black, your fellow police reported you. Mr police u ain't smart, you know you have stigma, you this kinda thing alone when no one sees you, you beat your subject to hell.
abi "woman goes on a slur of racist insults to black cop and he retaliates" the man was only investigated because he is black and put his hands on a non black woman. You know how many times white cops beat black people and they all unlook. na wa o
Mayb he thinks he is a nigerian cop
Na wa ooo
Hehehehe....nigerians no de gree ooo
The painful part is that he's Nigerian. This are the people who Ruin our already tender reputation worldwide
Abeg come naija come join police, we need u here.
9ja go alwyz b 9ja d blood stil flows
He's very sick. which man in his right senses hurts an already handcuffed person. be it a man or a woman.
Its normal, he must have worked with Nigerian Police before he traveled to US
Omo naija always rep evry whr dy go.
@Anon,even if d woman had said something to trigger his button he should still have kept his cool.that"s y he"s a policeman and I beleive they are trained on that.when you're around the whites as a black person be careful,cause they get away with a lot of things but blacks don't!see what he ha gotten himself into.
Yoruba men shaaaaa
