A mother in Silver Spring, Maryland, filed a lawsuit against Montgomery County, Montgomery County Public Schools and Montgomery County Police over an incident in which she says her 5-year-old son was mistreated by two police officers.
The lawsuit alleges that two Montgomery County officers assaulted and demoralized the boy after he walked away from East Silver Spring Elementary School during school hours in January 2020.
The alleged abuse happened when officers found the boy a short distance away. Download our NBC Washington app for iOS or Android to get alerts for local breaking news and weather.
The alleged abuse happened when officers found the boy a short distance away.
Attorneys representing the boy’s mother obtained video from the body camera of one of the officers and claim that in it, the officers could be heard repeatedly saying that the kindergartner should be beaten and that he was bad.
“Does your mama spank you? Does your mama spank you? She’s going to spank you today,” one of the officers allegedly said.
The attorneys quote from the body camera video extensively in the lawsuit. News4 has not seen the video.
The lawsuit also said the boy was placed in a police car, which was “extremely frightening to [him] because he thought he was going to be taken to jail.”
