CCTV footage of a US police officer apparently beating a 15-year-old girl has been released. The pictures show the sheriff’s deputy kicking, punching and pulling the hair of the teenager before throwing her to the floor of a jail cell. Prosecutors released the footage during the assault case against Deputy Paul Schene, who is accused of using excessive force. The 31-year-old has pleaded not guilty to fourth-degree assault and has told prosecutors his actions were to “prevent another assault”, by the teenager.
