Cops laughing over violent dementia arrest ‘no longer employed’ in Loveland, Colo.

Police officers who laughed while watching footage of the bone-breaking arrest of a 73-year-old woman with dementia are no longer employed by the Loveland, Colo., police department.

The Coloradoan reports that officers Austin Hopp and Daria Jalali, who were involved in the 2020 arrest of Karen Garner, as well as officer Tyler Blackett, are no longer on the force. A police department spokesman reportedly told CNN the officers had resigned their positions.

With Jalali backing him up, Hopp is seen on bodycam footage roughly detaining Garner, who had walked out of a Walmart with $13.88 in merchandise she hadn’t purchased in June. The ailing woman, who is suing the police department, suffered injuries including a broken humerus and a dislocated shoulder, according to her lawsuit.
