What a scam! (probably) an Update

I previously posted on this issue when I said: "A 'muslim' man gets tasered by Ocala cops. So now he's suing because...well, because he wouldn't drop his koran. He's religious, you know, and of course no muslim would drop a koran when cops say 'put your hands up, Sparky.'"

Well, an update:

OCALA - Four Ocala police officers have been cleared of allegations by a city resident involving use of excessive force with a Taser, use of obscene or inappropriate language, conduct unbecoming of an officer and falsifying a police report in connection with an August incident.

Jeffrey Shields, 49, was shocked with a Taser by one of the officers when he refused to drop what turned out to be a copy of the Quran - the Islamic holy book - that was hidden under his shirt. Shields also said that one of the officers kicked him in the head.

The officers were cleared by a three-member panel at the Police Department, according to an Internal Affairs report released Tuesday.

Though Shields filed a written complaint that triggered a probe into the incident, he never gave an oral statement to the investigative team that looked into the matter. Police officials said the department contacted him twice to arrange appointments, but he failed to show up both times.

Of course, we're all a bunch of racists here in Marion County, so the poor man just couldn't catch a break. Well, at least according to Wesley Snipes.
