The Florida State Attorney’s Office is investigating Orlando Police Officer William Escobar after body cam footage the department claimed didn’t exist has mysteriously surfaced.
In June, a video was uploaded to YouTube which was recorded by Luciarae Fripp, the sister of 25 year old Refus Holloway, a former military police officer who served in the Air Force.
The incident took place outside of a relative of Holloway’s house after police were called regarding a fight that he had been trying to break up.
“Refus was trying to tell the police officers what happened,” Holloway’s lawyer Bradley Laurent told the Orlando Sentinal. “He wasn’t yelling, he wasn’t being belligerent in any way shape or form.”
The nearly two minute long and highly disturbing video shows Holloway being brutally beaten, while face down and handcuffed, by Officer Escobar.
