Cop ruptures 16-year-old’s testicles during frisk

PHILADELPHIA, PA–He was the only one who didn’t run. Now Darrin Manning may never father children after his encounter with a police officer earlier this month.

While on his way to a basketball game after school, the straight-A student and his teammates had an encounter with officer Thomas Purcell. Apparently one of the teammates may have said a snide remark to the officer, who then approached them. The boys ran, but Manning stopped and stayed. “I didn’t do anything wrong,” he said to Philly.com.

What happened next is hard to believe. Darrin was handcuffed, frisked, and his genitals were pulled and twisted with such force by the female officer that they literally tore off.

“I felt her reach, and she grabbed my butt. And then she grabbed and squeezed again and pulled down. And that’s when I heard something pop, like I felt it POP,” Manning said.​

Hmmm?
Something doesn't smell right.
But if true, that is excessive force. :mrgreen:
 
I'm not surprised it was a female officer that did it.


I'm not saying that as some kind of gender joke or snipe, but because back in my LE days female officers were well known to be overly rough when searching the genital area. Granted, some of the reason for that is how often people hide stuff there; I think the other reason is they don't understand how easily damaged those are.


It's a pity. Big lawsuit, big settlement I expect.
 
This is going to be dismissed.

Not a chance in hell of that. The best the city can do is settle out of court. If it goes to trial the city is boned.

Any lawsuit he and his family attempts to bring.

Okay! But I doubt that.
While I think something smells funny with the claim, if true, she could have possibly maimed him for life. The city will most likely settle such a claim.


But we will see. :shrug:



Even though with surgery, I suspect it was reattached with no problem. Detachment is a common occurrence.
My buddy had one that detached all on it own. He and his gf had no idea it had happened, but she pointed it out to him and asked if it was supposed to do that... freely spin around in the sack.

Was not aware that police searches were allowed to be done on members of the opposite sex.

But maybe i am confusing beat cops with the TSA.....
 
Look, the kid is a golden boy. Straight A student in a science charter school and was in school uniform when the incident happened. The damage is now a matter of medical record and man, when you mess with someone's nuts and possible future juries go ape****.

The officer is female and not allowed that sort of search in the first place without exigent circumstances which do not exist here. The charges brought against the boy are obviously spurious and cover for the female officer. Won't last two minutes in court. Besides, the boy has his record, the school and the doctors on his side.
 
The kid should just be happy he doesn't live in Fullerton, California.
 
What is this kid's alleged crime? Is it illegal to make snide remarks (whatever that means) to a cop, or is he accused of a real crime?

This whole incident smells to high heaven, but reports of it are pretty light in facts, it seems to me.

Not at all once you know the evidence.

Which of course has nothing to do with this case. They are not even similar.

Possible so. The man in Fullerton had committed no crime nor suspected of any other than the crime of looking like a poor street person. Since by the report this teenage was not dressed like a street person it appears he was committing the crime of poverty.

Wrong. You already know he was suspected of a 496.
 

I may be preaching to the choir, but pain compliance does virtually nothing to people that are high/EDP. Tasers/OC.....everything fails even a cocobolo over, the individual's head and yes, the suspect keeps on fighting.

Suspect many of us have no idea what you are talking about.

Please elaborate...
 
I heard that the officer is going to claim that her use of force was justified because his testicle was resisting by withdrawing into the boys abdomen

Which validated the fatal beat down? Is that really where you are going with this....??

I see you are not familiar with the evidence.
There was no fatal beat down. The weight of the Officers inadvertently crushed his chest, causing asphyxiation. That is not being beaten to death, or the result of a beat down. It is nothing more than the inadvertent crushing of his chest while trying to subdue Kelly because he was resisting.

There is a thread that addresses all that.
If you want to discuss that please take it there, as this topic is about a 16 year old who had a nut detached.
 
Why was the kid assaulting the officer with foul language?

Then minimally the officers should be fired for being too physically weak to perform the duties of a police officer. If 700 pounds of police officers can't cuff a 135 pound guy on his chest on the ground they are so incredibly weak and physically incompetent they have no business being police officers. We can't have officers that the average 8 year old could beat up just one of them.
