The title of my article is called ” Attorney defends actions of fired officer as justified and lawful”. An attorney for the South Carolina officer fired for slamming a student to the ground and tossing her several feet,says his client. “We believe that Mr.Fields actions were justified and lawful throughout the circumstances of which he was confronted during this incident.

To that extent, people believe that Mr.Fields actions were carried out professionally and that he was performing his job duties within the legal threshold, “field’s attorney, Scott Hayes, said in a statement. Fields admitted he used “muscling techniques”, to get the student out of her chair. Fields says the student deserved what happened because she had disruptive behavior, and he had to do his job.

As a result, Fields was wrong and should’ve been fired for his actions. I feel this situation was uncalled for,because even though the student wasn’t being respectful,I believe the officer could’ve handled the situation better. I am a student and I would never want to be caught in this situation and neither would my classmates. Yes, people should punish people but you don’t have to go overboard.
