posted (March 20, 2015)
In September of last year we told you about an allegation of outrageous police brutality - when 19 year old Armahni Bailey accused two police officers who he identified as Constable Larry Sutherland and Wayne Trapp of trying to drown him. Bailey told us that he was taken to an area at mile four on the Western Highway - where they tried to drown him in a garbage bin after threatening to shoot him. Bailey's family made an official complaint and the case against the two officers started on November 4th. Both officers were charged with one count of being uncivil when on duty, and Sutherland was additionally charged with prejudice to good order and discipline when he allegedly harmed Bailey. Today the case against the two officers ended in favor of Armahni Bailey and 7news got an interview from his aunt, who was satisfied with the outcome.
