Parker was also fired from his job for his use of force against a man who committed no crime, did not speak English and could not understand the police commands.
The community was in disbelief that an elderly man who had done no crime other than walking on the sidewalk, would be brutalised savagely, paralysing him with fused vertebrae.
Community organizations have condemned the inhuman attack pointing out that the officer lacked common sense or racial bias might have played a role in the attack.
