Alabama police bodycam footage shows a white cop who forcefully entered a Black woman’s home over a noise complaint assaulting her in front of her child after she legally refused to provide her identification. Lawyers for the woman claim the cop reacted like he did because “she called out his racism.”
Twyla Stallworth
According to a press release sent to NewsOne, Andalusia Police Department Officer Grant Barton shoved Twyla Stallworth, 40, in her own home, arrested her and detained her for more than a dozen hours weeks ago in the small town located about 85 miles south of Montgomery. All because she called the cops about a neighbor playing loud music in their yard, lawyers said.
When the police didn’t respond to Stallworth’s multiple calls, she set off her car’s alarm in an effort to show her neighbors what it’s like to have to deal with loud noise. When Stallworth’s neighbor, who is white, called the cops on her to report the car alarm, officers responded and threatened her with arrest if she didn’t stop the car alarm. Her neighbor avoided similar police treatment from his loud music, lawyers said.
