Metro Atlanta Resident Brice Wilson Accuses Powder Springs Officer K. Moore of Groping Him During Traffic Stop

Brice Wilson, 23, is accusing Powder Springs, Ga., Police Officer K. Moore of groping him during a videotaped traffic stop, then choking and tasering him when he reacted to the "grope." An internal investigation has been launched into the incident, which occurred at the intersection of Old Austell Road and Atlanta Street in Powder Springs, when the officer pulled him over because his license plate light was out.

The officer's dashcam video system recorded the stop. The video showed Officer K. Moore asking Wilson to get out of his car and then telling him he smelled marijuana on him. "I'm gonna ask you this one time -- One time only, 'cause I smell the marijuana all on you. Where's it at?" Moore can be heard saying on the video. The video goes on to show Wilson repeatedly saing he doesn't have any marijuana. The officer then calls for back up and orders Wilson to put his hands on the front of his patrol unit. "Spread your legs," Moore said. The video then shows the officer grabbing Wilson's genitals.

The dashcam video showed when Wilson reacted by grabbing the officer's hand, Moore put him in a chokehold, and another officer hit him and both officers took him to the ground. Both officers then screamed at Wilson: "Where's it at? Where's it at?" "I told you I don't have it," Wilson hollered back. The two officers then raised Wilson's handcuffed arms high behind his back. He screamed in agony. The officers said Wilson wouldn't be still so they shocked him with a stun gun. "Help! Help!" Wilson screamed on the video. "We got a serious tactic being employed by the police here," Jim Howard, Wilson's attorney said of the officers' actions. Source
