Tennessee Deputies Hold Man Down while Probing his Anus after Smelling Marijuana

https://youtu.be/3tmIbj7RAqY

The Hamilton County sheriff’s deputies said they pulled over a car for tinted windows Wednesday, only to smell marijuana inside.

Deputies Bobby Brewer and Daniel Wilkey said the man in the passenger seat admitted to smoking a joint earlier but when they searched him, they found “a small bag of marijuana” in his pocket which they placed on the hood of the car.

The deputies claim the man, James Myron Mitchell, became “combative” which in police terminology, can mean anything from questioning an arrest to becoming combative but usually just means they were the ones that became combative.

In this case, the police definition of combative is to squeeze and grab a man’s crotch repeatedly until he flinches in pain and protests, which is when they take him down and beat him off camera for four minutes.

After the beating, they lift him back up onto the hood and hold him down while one of them removes his pants and probes his anal cavity as cars whiz by and the man’s female companion who was driving the car, sitting on the ground, handcuffed, witnesses the abuse.

The deputies claim their efforts paid off because they found 1.6 grams of crack cocaine in addition to the bag of weed which probably has a combined street value of less than $100.

And who is to say they didn’t plant the crack because who the hell drives around with crack in their ass?

Deputy Wilkey claimed in his report that he felt a “hard object” around Mitchell’s crotch, which made him fear for his life.

According to the Times Free Press:

During the traffic stop, Wilkey said, he asked the driver, Latisha Menifee, and Mitchell if there was any marijuana in the vehicle. Mitchell said he had smoked a joint before being stopped, the criminal affidavit says. Deputies Wilkey and Brewer found a “small bag of marijuana” in a pocket of Mitchell’s pants, the affidavit says.

Wilkey said Mitchell began to “get combative” and attempted to grab the marijuana, which deputies had placed on the hood of the Buick. Deputies said they began to handcuff and detain Mitchell to continue searching him, “however as I was doing so, Mr. Mitchell began pulling away from me.”

Wilkey wrote in the affidavit that he felt a “hard object” around Mitchell’s crotch and that Mitchell kept trying to reach into his pants against orders.

“Not knowing whether it was a weapon or narcotics,” the deputy wrote that he delivered a “knee strike” to Mitchell’s upper thigh. He then pulled Mitchell to the ground. Once on the ground, Wilkey said Mitchell tried to kick at the deputies, so they delivered “several more closed fist strikes” to his upper thigh and buttocks.

The mysterious hard was never identified but Mitchell was charged with felony drug possession, tampering with evidence and resisting arrest. But it appears as if those charges will be dismissed by Hamilton County District Attorney Neal Pinkston who called for the investigation on the deputies after viewing the video.

Wilkey, the deputy who could not keep his hands off Mitchell’s crotch, has been named in two previous lawsuits over incidents when he was a Rhea County sheriff’s deputy, just north of Hamilton County, according to the Times Free Press.

In the first incident, he was sued for killing a man named Steven Lee “Buddy” Howell by shooting him in the head at point-blank range after they had detained him inside a hospital. That case was settled out of court.

The second lawsuit was filed Tuesday, the day before this incident, and sounds very similar to what took place in this incident.

A man named William Eugene Klaven was pulled over for having dark tints but was then ordered out of the car which was when Wikley asked to search the car. When Klaven refused the request, Wilkey called over a K9 unit to sniff for drugs which were not found.

Klaven says he denied the search but was detained illegally until K-9 dogs from the Soddy-Daisy Police Department could make it to the scene to sniff for drugs.

Klaven wrote that Wilkey and other officers tried to manufacture a positive result but found nothing in his vehicle. Klaven does not indicate whether he was arrested but wrote that he went to court, never saw his name on the docket and learned a citation had not been filed.

Had he not videoed the incidents, Klaven wrote, he is not sure what would have happened.

So just on these facts alone, it appears as if Wilkey was either fired or forced to resign from the Rhea County Sheriff’s Office for abusing his power which is why he is now a Hamilton County sheriff’s deputy abusing his power.

Support our Mission

Help us build a database of bad cops

For almost 15 years, PINAC News has remained active despite continuous efforts by the government and Big Tech to shut us down by either arresting us for lawful activity or by restricting access to our readers under the pretense that we write about “social issues.”

Since we are forbidden from discussing social issues on social media, we have created forums on our site to allow us to fulfill our mission with as little restriction as possible. We welcome our readers to join our forums and support our mission by either donating, volunteering or both.

Our plan is to build a national database of bad cops obtained from public records maintained by local prosecutors. The goal is to teach our readers how to obtain these lists to ensure we cover every city, county and state in the country.

After all, the government has made it clear it will not police the police so the role falls upon us.

It will be our most ambitious project yet but it can only be done with your help.

But if we succeed, we will be able to keep innocent people out of prison.
