I agree with gotgank, the suspect can still be a threat even though he is unarmed and handcuffed. The video is terrible, especially when the photographer covers the cam with his finger. You can hear the taser, but it sounds like it was arcing, not hitting the suspect.

Taser on an "unarmed" suspect that is resisting is perfectly fine and is what most Dept SOPs call for. If he was "armed", then the use of force continuim goes up accordingly.
Baton strikes on a fighting, handcuffed prisoner "may" be necessary. Just because the cuffs go on, doesn't mean the fights over.

ltsimon, was this a joke? Couldn't see anything resembling a baton or a taser. Maybe I need to get my eyes checked?

Okay, I don't see anything on this video. Not saying it didn't happen, just saying that I hope the department has more evidence than this for hanging their own officers.
