RE: Under what circumstances is it justified to pepper spray an 84 year old lady in the face?

in #policing8 years ago

Seems a lot of you thing never is the answer to this but having dealt with a family member with dementia and Alzheimer's I would rather see pepper spray used than physical force or worse. When people don't know what they are doing sometimes something like this may be the answer. They can get very violent for no reason or see things that aren't there when they don't take their medication.
