Ten deputies have been placed on administrative leave with pay after a news channel’s helicopter captured the law enforcement agents using excessive force on a handcuffed man, according to San Bernardino County Sherrif John McMahon. Francis Pusok had fallen off his horse after a three-hour police chase when he was handcuffed and brutally beaten by the officers. McMahon said he was “disturbed and troubled” by the video while Pusok’s laywer said the beatings were “far worse than Rodney King.”
