TL;DR Summary

Micah Washington, a black man from Alabama, was tasered and arrested by a white police officer, Dana Elmore, who was later caught on camera swearing and using a stun gun on Washington while he was in handcuffs. Washington was initially charged with trafficking fentanyl, but the charge was dropped after further testing revealed the substance was not the opioid drug. Washington, who had never had a previous issue with the police, expressed his trauma and lack of trust in law enforcement. His attorney plans to file a $20 million lawsuit, arguing that the arrest was illegal. The officer has been placed on administrative leave, and a thorough investigation has been requested.
