“In the video, obtained by Chicago-based watchdog group the Better Government Association, Redell is sitting in a chair exchanging words with the cops when an officer identified as Scott Crow pounces on her and appears to punch her several times in the head with both fists. The other officer, who has not been identified, doesn’t strike her, but has his hands on her legs and waist. Meanwhile, Redell’s infant daughter sits in a stroller just a few feet away. Redell eventually ends up on the floor with her hands cuffed behind her back. In his report, Crow claimed that he pounced on Redell because her ‘hands were clenched’ and she appeared ‘willing to fight.'”
