MIAMI – Opening statements began Wednesday in the trial versus a previous Miami Gardens law enforcement officer accused of law enforcement brutality.
Jordy Martel is accused of forcibly arresting a girl exterior of Tootsies Cabaret.
“The defendant, that male at that desk when keeping one of her arms with his hand, puts his knee on her neck although she was on her again and her belly is only covered by this thin piece of materials but his actions do not stop there,” mentioned a prosecutor.
Martel faces two counts of official misconduct and 4 counts of battery.
