Feds crack down on police brutality nationwide

Eyewitnesses say Chasse, who suffered from schizophrenia, appeared "frightened." And when he ran, they say, he was chased, knocked down and beaten by police.


Chasse told CBS News chief investigative correspondent Armen Keteyian that his son wouldn't hurt anyone. "This is a guy who couldn't lift 35 pounds," Chasse said. "And they say he was struggling."


Video shows Chasse being carried through the jail on his way to the hospital. He never made it. He died from "blunt force trauma to the chest." An autopsy found Chasse was tasered. His ribs were broken in 27 places.


Two officers involved received two week suspensions for failing to ensure Chasse received medical attention after being tasered. None of the officers involved was fired.

I'm sure it's going to be all better when the Feds "crack down."
