Sacramento's police chief justified the use of the device on Wednesday.
By Kayla Epstein Kayla Epstein Embedded audience editor on the National desk Email Bio Follow May 22 at 10:12 PM A video showing Sacramento police placing a “spit hood” over a 12-year-old boy’s head during an arrest has led to further criticism of a department already under scrutiny following the death of Stephon Clark, an unarmed black man who was shot and killed by police in March 2018.
A lawyer for the family maintains that the boy did nothing to justify his arrest, and the use of the hood was extreme. The Washington Post does not name suspects under the age of 18 unless a judge or magistrate has ordered that they be tried as adults. It begins as the boy is being held against the wall of what appears to be a Wienerschnitzel hot dog restaurant by two officers, an employee of the fast food chain, and a man who appears to be a private security guard. The boy asks repeatedly why he is being arrested and calls for his mother as an officer places him in handcuffs. He struggles and is eventually pulled toward a police car by an officer and the guard, while he and a bystander demand his parents be called.
Black Lives Matter Sacramento founder Tanya Faison told The Washington Post that the video was filmed by an adult who was friends with the boy’s family, and provided to the chapter by the boy’s grandmother. The videos do not capture what led to the boy’s arrest. Harris said the boy was attending a nearby carnival with his sister and an adult chaperone that evening, and the adult had asked him to get change from his car to use at the fair. The boy obliged, but Harris said a security guard grew suspicious and gave chase.
