Kamilah Brock Gets `Obamacared´ Police State USSA 09/15/15 (Tue) 06:04:47 No.435

Kamilah Brock, a former New York banker, has filled a suit against the city after she was detained for eight days in a mental health facility against her will. Brock says she was committed after trying to pick up her BMW, which skeptical police did not believe she owned, after it had been impounded when she was arrested the previous day.

"Then [emergency medical services] approached me. And they said we're gonna take you to your car. And I'm like, in an ambulance?" Brock told PIX11. "I'm going to my car in an ambulance? I was just so confused."

The story began when Brock was stopped at a traffic light in New York's Harlem neighborhood on Sept. 12, 2014. Officers of the New York Police Department questioned Brock, who is black, about why she had her hands off the steering wheel. Brock, waiting at the light, replied she was "dancing." According to Brock, the officers promptly detained her in New York's local 30th police precinct.

She was ultimately released several hours later without charges and told to pick up her car the next day from another location. When she did, officers on the scene refused to believe that she was the rightful owner of the 2003 BMW 325CI. "I just felt like from the moment I said I owned a BMW, I was looked at as a liar," she told PIX11.

Before she knew it, she was on her way to Harlem Hospital Center's psychiatric ward, where she was injected with lithium and numerous powerful sedatives against her will.

In an interview with PIX11, she recalled her experience: "He held on to me, and then the doctor stuck me in the arm, and then I was on a stretcher, and then I just woke up to them taking my clothes off."

This lasted eight days.

Brock was ultimately left with a $13,000 medical bill from the hospital.

Harlem Hospital did not deny that Brock had been been committed. Her medical file, which her lawyers released to PIX 11, indicated she was suffering from bipolar disorder and that she was "manic," exhibiting "psychiatric behavior." Brock, who is now suing the city for "unspecified damages," has no prior history of mental illness.

Lithium can fuck you up big time, I hope she gets every Penney they have.

Is there any REASON she should have been dragged to a mental hospital and forced spoon-fed drugs?

If not, apparently you like living in a country where people are treated this way. I'm not surprised as there seems to be so many moral-less degenerates lurking on 8ch.net

She was taken into custody twice on two consecutive days, by two different groups of police officers, almost exactly a year ago.

She claims that she was arrested both times because the Harlem police were jealous of her 2003 entry-level BMW.

It's a lawsuit that makes little sense.

I do disagree with the title of this post, though. It reads like garbage straight out of /pol/. We need to aim to make post titles more worthy of a board called "Real News"

The title is up to the person who posts the report, I agree it's not the best title though. I really don't know much about this case, for all I know she may have been in the wrong, regardless that the cops used unnecessary force. It's likely good that she filed a lawsuit, let the courts figure this whole thing out and who was in the wrong.
