Like I said, I don't question his right or need to do his job, just the way he did it. In my opinion, he should retake his self defense training for a few different reasons.
yea the lock was a little weak
could of been his umpteenth call of the day, fatigue and heat could of been part of it for all we know.
I've seen another vid of a LEO trying to arrest a skinny but healthy teenage girl after repeated commands to put her hand behind her back he arm locked one arm and was reaching around to grab the other she bite him quite hard. She got a short sharp jab in the jaw which stunned her enough to get the cuffs on and she still was fighting. if it weren't all on vid people would be raising Hell about it
True. However, with proper hand positioning you don't need a lot of force. My 5'1" wife can easily control me (6'5") by my wrist with her hand in the right spot. There's also body and foot positioning. When I was last in classes (Tang Soo Do Moo Duk Kwan) I was frequently used as a student teacher and some of the classmates were active LEOs. Even though they'd been through the training and had been working for a few years I was surprised at how often they put their hands in the wrong places or put their bodies in undue danger.
For instance, once you get someone's arm behind their back and your hand is below their wrist you don't step into them if they're still fighting, you take a step back while pushing down. They either comply or break their own wrist but, you're a safe distance away. From there you take your inside hand off of their wrist and use as much force as needed on the inside of their elbow so you can bend their arm and step into them.
Further, I'd say he's fairly lucky that homeboy in the green hat, who was half heartedly trying to hold Ms. Pink Shirt back, didn't clock him upside the head and/or take his weapon while he was struggling with her.
For the record and whatever it's worth, I have used my martial arts training in quite a few street self defense situations...so, it's not like I'm all-dojo and no go.

Well I suppose one can say anything you want, but no one but some stupid little girl decided to interfere with what the policeman felt was his duty. And in fact she did so physically. No one else, picture taker/s included, acted in any threatening way vocally or otherwise.
The little brat is lucky she doesn't have a broken jaw or worse. She deserved it and if it'd been a male she wouldn't have gotten off as litely as a split lip.
Sorry to hear there was no back up on the way because of money issues. There should have been help coming if it was needed. Shame on the city.
Skinny folks are hard to cuff when they resist. Period.
Looks like a thoroughly appropriate use of force to me.
If someone held a gun to my head and FORCED me to sharp-shoot this Officer's fine performance, I'd say his only mistake was not wearing gloves on patrol.
A decent pair of duty gloves would have made the subject easier to hold on to, and reduced the likelihood of cutting a knuckle when he popped her in the mouth.
After all the hellish past few months for LEOs in Washington State, I'd say he showed a hell of a lot of restraint towards someone in the commission of a felony.
