Chief Sheppard’s statement regarding arrest video

Today I received a video of a woman’s arrest by RPD officers. The video depicts her arrest as she videotaped officers while they were engaged in a traffic stop. This video has been circulated via the internet and through various social media sites.

I have researched the incident and determined that the case is currently proceeding through the adjudication process. With the case still pending and my unfamiliarity with the specific details, any assumptions at this time would be premature.
While our Professional Standards Section has not received a formal complaint at this time, I have directed that they initiate an internal investigation of the incident in its totality. I can assure you that our investigation will be impartial, thorough, and complete.

Chief James M. Sheppard
Rochester Police Department

Rochester Indymedia is now requiring editor approval for account creation.
