A Warren police officer is under fire after being charged with two misdemeanors after a video surfaced online of him punching a man who was under arrest in the city jail's fingerprinting area. Matthew James Rodriguez, 48, of Southgate, who has been with the department for more than 14 years, was arraigned Tuesday on assault/assault and battery, a 93-day misdemeanor, and public officer-willful neglect of duty, a one-year misdemeanor, according to authorities and court records. Following the incident Warren Police Commissioner Bill Dwyer said Rodriguez is on unpaid leave and has an employment hearing with him on Friday. "This is not what we do. This is not who we are," Dwyer said before showing video of the assault that occurred on June 13 at the city jail, adding that police officers must protect the rights of the public, including those accused of committing a crime.

«10 or 20 years ago this would have been brushed under the rug. The fact that he is being punished is a huge leap over the way it was before in the US.»
