Body cam video of Dejuan Yourse Assault by two Greesnboro police officers.

30.09.2016
One day after the Greensboro City Council released footage from a June 17 incident involving excessive force, the second officer involved in the arrest has resigned. Officer CN Jackson resigned yesterday, Greensboro police spokesperson Susan Danielsen confirmed this afternoon. Additional information about Jackson, including her first name, hire date, rank and possible past disciplinary action were not immediately available but are a matter of public record and should be released shortly. Officers Travis Cole and CN Jackson responded to a possible attempted break-in and found Dejuan Yourse on his mother’s porch. Police body camera footage shows civil and polite interactions between Yourse and the two officers at first. Cole sharply escalated the encounter later, grabbing Yourse’s phone before hitting him and slamming him on the ground. Yourse initially faced several charges — documents show Jackson accused Yourse of “using his shoulder to press her wrist against a door frame.” All charges have since been dropped. Cole resigned on Aug. 19 amid two police investigations into the incident, one criminal and one internal. Yet Cole was promoted on Aug. 1, a move that comes with a salary increase, after the internal investigation began (but before the criminal inquiry started on Aug. 10). Chief Wayne Scott confirmed in a press conference on Monday that an internal investigation was still looking into Jackson for the Yourse incident, adding that he hoped it could be completed within the next two weeks. She had not been placed on administrative leave with pay, as Cole had, but continued to serve in a regular capacity. But like her partner on the scene, Jackson has now resigned mid-investigation following the incident. https://triad-city-beat.com/2016/09/second-officer-involved-dejuan-yourse-incident-resigns/ #blacklivesmatter
