NAACP Demands Answers After Violent Police Traffic Stop Video | JQJO

The Jacksonville NAACP is demanding answers from Sheriff TK Waters following a viral video showing a violent February traffic stop. The video depicts JSO officers breaking a driver's window, hitting William McNeil Jr., and forcefully removing him from his SUV after he requested a supervisor. The NAACP calls the incident "disturbing" and highlights the fear many Black men experience during traffic stops. Sheriff Waters stated an internal investigation is underway, and the NAACP is urging the release of bodycam footage. McNeil Jr., represented by civil rights attorneys, suffered injuries including a concussion and chipped tooth. He was found guilty of resisting arrest and driving with a suspended license, while other charges were dismissed.
