“A Milwaukee police officer fired for punching a female suspect will get his job back. Officer Richard Schoen was let go after this dashcam video surfaced of him punching a handcuffed woman he arrested in May. The Milwaukee police chief said it was clear Schoen had lost control and was using excessive force. Schoen appealed, saying he punched the woman because he was afraid she would bite or spit on him. Monday, the Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission overturned the firing. Schoen said he’s learned his lesson.”
