Police Erroneously Assault Ex NFL Desmond Marrow for Cell-Phone

Reported from Revolution News, on Facebook.

Though the incident happened back in December, this video was just recently, released.

Mr. Marrow States that a party threw trash at his car and he followed and confronted the offender; and the police were called.

According to the police report they feared Desmond (an ex NFL player); and Desmond Marrow gave the police cause to arrest him.

In the report, one cop gives account - telling a different tale.

Video of a black former college and NFL football player being slammed to the ground by Henry County Police in McDonough, Georgia, is drawing outrage after it spread rapidly across social media Thursday evening.

Desmond Marrow, a former University of Toledo football player who also spent one season in the NFL, posted the video to his Facebook and Instagram pages.

..."I Only Had My Cell Phone in my possession & they claimed to be scared for their lives . I had No type of weapon in my possession , I was arrested for having a Gun that turned out to be my Cell Phone . During the arrest the police knocked my teeth out, slammed me on my head and choked me out until I was unconscious," Marrow wrote. "In addition I suffered a shoulder strain and a concussion along with the heartache of my Wife leaving me during this Very Hard time for my short comings and careless actions."
