A white Florida police officer has been charged with aggravated battery during the arrest of a Black man accused of trespassing outside a grocery store
Then the struggle resumed, and Lordi knelt on Monroque's head, using his right knee, for 14 seconds, according to an affidavit. He had told the man to “stop spitting" as he laid handcuffed on the ground.
Lordi said in a deposition in 2020 that Monroque was “disrespectful” and was “fighting, pulling away, and not listening to commands.” A West Palm Beach police statement says the department immediately launched a use-of-force investigation and asked FDLE to investigate once additional evidence was found. The FDLE report said surveillance video contradicts some of Lordi’s statements.
“I feel good now. It’s justice,” Monroque said at a news conference on Wednesday, adding that he forgives Lordi.Sue-Ann Robinson, an attorney for Monroque, told reporters that Lordi has “extensive history of complaints and excessive force.”
