That's sort of my point. I was responding to the "training" comment.

So if those officers genuinely believe that their armed and armoured team needs to electrocute, subdue, and inject a naked man in the shower who posed no apparent threat in order to "help" him then they are potentially beyond training.

I think there's a good chance they were trained to do that.

Yikes. If that's the case then trainers and everyone up the chain needs to answer to the community (i.e. who they ultimately serve and protect) on this one, then.

Thank goodness for 1) body cams on police, and 2) shared footage so we can have this conversation.

They most certainly do not serve and protect the community.. That is unless by community you mean "law enforcement community". They do indeed serve and protect their own gang quite effectively.
