A Texas Police Officer You Don't Want To Meet

This is Texas Police Officer Richard McCain. Officer McCain has the dubious distinction of taking a tazer to a 72-year old gandmother, Kathryn Winkfein, who refused to sign a speeding ticket for doing 60 mph in a 45 mph zone. McCain says he was justified because Ms. Winkfein used profanity at him and "got violent" so he used the tazer to defend himself. Ms. Winkfein denies these allegations. Oh, and by the way, this is the second time a Texas police officer has tazed an elderly citizen for refusal to sign a speeding ticket. The first was 72-year old Jared Massey who was awarded $40,000 for similar conduct by Texas Police Officer Jon Gardner.
