A Gilbert woman has filed a federal complaint against a police officer from her east Valley town, alleging that she suffers ongoing brain damage from his excessive use of force during her arrest. Bodycam video of the arrest obtained by Phoenix New Times shows the 36-year-old woman, Samantha Glass, inebriated and resisting arrest after the officer told her she was being detained at an apartment complex. She was later convicted on related charges. But whether the officer’s violent take-down of Glass could have been avoided is a question that will now play out in Arizona U.S. District Court. According to the complaint field last week, Officer Christopher Robinson of the Town of Gilbert Police Department used “unnecessary and unreasonable force” in throwing Glass to the floor after asking about an alleged vehicle burglary.
