After striking a prisoner, a police officer is dismissed

Description:

In an environment a little tougher than the typical cop show routine, 48-year-old Matthew Rodriguez received his retribution in Warren, Michigan. When he roughed up a 19-year-old who was in detention for auto theft and carrying a pistol, he became a bit aggressive. Under our law enforcement representative's blows, the young man practically tasted the jail floor. The lease for Rodrigues is $5,000, and he is currently out of commission. Before going back to his cell, the boy made a brief visit to the hospital.
