In Texas, the San Antonio School District has launched an investigation after a video surfaced of a school police officer body-slamming a 12-year-old girl to the ground. The cellphone video appears to show officer Joshua Kehm lifting up 12-year-old Janissa Valdez and then forcibly throwing her face-first into the floor. Officer Kehm then handcuffs her hands behind her back. On the video, onlooking students can be heard saying, “She landed on her face.”
