Evil cop gets fired after going insane on an innocent woman

Updated: Aug 10


That’s the attention-grabbing headline for a viral YouTube video showing the behavior of a police officer when trying to handle a domestic disturbance in Athens three years ago.

On Oct. 17, 2021 Roger Williams responded to a dispute between a man and woman on Willow Run. While other officers went into the home to speak with the man, Williams remained outside and placed the woman in custody.

The woman was agitated because she couldn’t understand why the officer was arresting her, and at one point Williams apparently tripped her and pcaused the woman to fall and hit her head.

EMS transported the woman to the hospital for examination prior to her being booked into jail on an obstruction charge.

An internal investigation by the Athens-Clarke County Police Department concluded that Williams

had used unnecessary and excessive force on the woman, and in May 2022 he was fired.

Then this week Classic City News noticed something strange happening, with an astonishing global interest in a story concerning Roger Williams it published in January 2021 with the headline “$250k settlement in ACCPD shooting case.”

That story concerned an excessive force lawsuit filed by a man who was rendered paralyzed by bullets fired into him by Williams, and it was being read simultaneously by users in multiple U.S. cities from Irvine, TX, to Waterloo, NY as well as internationally from Mexico City to Kuala Lumpur.

Within hours of the video dropping, it had been viewed nearly a half-million times.

Because the shooting incident was mentioned in the domestic disturbance video, viewers from all over apparently began doing their own research that led them to the CCN website and the big cash payout story. 🤷‍♀️

Here is the “Evil Cop” video:

This is footage from Roger Wlliams’ body cam when he shot the man in 2019:

The story surrounding Officer Roger Williams is truly troubling, and it’s disturbing to see the impact of his actions both locally and globally. The incident from October 2021, where excessive force was used during a domestic disturbance arrest, highlights the importance of police accountability and the need for proper training in handling sensitive situations. The fact that Williams was also involved in a previous excessive force lawsuit, which left a man paralyzed, adds even more weight to the case.
