The NYPD is facing a lawsuit from a woman who claims she was mistakenly put into a mental hospital, simply because police didn’t believe she owned her own BMW.
Kamilah Brock, a 32-year-old banker from Long Island, was pulled over in Harlem for allegedly driving without her hands on the wheel. She was arrested, then released without charges.
“I was confused and did not know what was going on, why I was being taken into custody,” Brock said to PIX11. “The officer said, ‘why are you driving without your hands on the wheel?’ I said I was dancing, I am at a light, he asked me to get out of the car.”

I had something very similar happen to me in 2008. Due to me having a coughing attack on a flight about 30 minutes after take off from SFO to JFK. Long story short I was met by officers upon landing in JFK who took me to the local station after handcuffing me and telling me not to worry, that I hadnt done anything wrong, they just needed to make sure I was ok. Once we arrived they handcuffed me to a pole with my arm across my chest. Mind you Im having a breathing issue.After being bombarded with many questions a man said that it was just procedure but they were going to take me to the hospital to “make sure I was ok”. After I got in the ambulance the paramedic kept saying your doing good just stay calm then out of know where hits me in my arm… black out and flashes for the next 4 days. 7 days and 5 shots of haldol later while being pinned down I was finally released. oh ya … the 6 day I was finally diagnosed with Chronic Brontosaurus. That situtation has ruined my life. I am a shadow of the person I used to be. I hope she doesnt go thru that also.
Lol Chronic Bronchitis. And for those of you that dont know haldol is the replacement for Thorazine which is the replacement for the lobotomy. It does long term damage that appears later even with just one dose.
i hope that policeman gets deleted from the force,
hes not compatible to the uSA constitution
i hope that women gets
the rights that belong to here, and gets compasated for the NY police taking here rights away
the USA police force
goto be made compatible to USA LAW
the police use psychatric hospitals
as illegal detention facilities
in every country
my personal story was
i walked across a green light and the police put me in jail
then they called their favorid doctor who proclaimed me insane
when i was in the hospital
the staff told me they reenforced their hospital scince my last escape
in germany you goto escape then come back to be free
when i told the doctor i live in my house
he told me im crazy
when i showed my keyes he told me im crazy
when i sayed test it
he said your crazy i don t need to test anything
luckily when the judge came i got conected o my father, who said everything i said is true
everything i said was true
the doctor is the insane person
question
how can a person be subjected to drugs against their will without a court order ?
every doctor who did it is doing grave damage
thats a criminal offense
every person responsible to giving that women drugs should be prosecuted
haldol is not a funny drug
it kills peoples
personality
the most insane people in an insane asylum are the doctors, they are allways in the iinsane asylum
