Philadelphia Cop Being ‘Fully Investigated’ for Striking Woman in the Face at Parade
A short YouTube video shows a woman being struck in the face by a police officer at the Festival de la Americas following the Puerto Rico Day Parade in Philadelphia on Sunday.
“We were made aware of the video very, very early this morning. Internal Affairs opened up an investigation in reference to the incident and the actions of that officer,” Lt. Ray Evers told ABC News on Monday. “The incident is being fully investigated.”
The scene is chaotic and the circumstances surrounding the incident are not entirely known, but the video shows a group of police officers and a crowd of people intermixed at the festival. The woman who is eventually hit by an officer, identified as Aida Guzman, can be seen in the video hopping around and shouting something near the gathering of cops.
Moments later, one of the police officers, dressed in a white uniform, darts towards the woman and takes her to the ground with a vicious blow to the face.
Watch the video of the incident here:
And NBC Philadelphia provides a slow motion shot of the blow:
“You only see one vantage point, but what you do see is disturbing, I have to be honest about that” Deputy Police Commissioner Richard Ross told NBC Philadelphia.
Officials claim Guzman was spraying silly string at officers during a traffic stop. If you look closely at the video, it appears that Guzman is in fact holding a can of something. However, it should be noted, silly string hardly warrants that kind of force.
“The guy was out there spinning wheels and burning up tires in the middle of the highway, which is not normal. And we’re out there to make sure that stopped. As we’re doing it, things are being thrown, liquids are being tossed, substances being sprayed from a can” Fraternal Order of Police president John McNesby said.
NBC Philadelphia has more details on the case:
Guzman was cited for disorderly conduct. Her face was bleeding as officers took her away.
Philadelphia police confirm the officer involved in the incident is Lt. Jonathan Josey. Josey has been with the department for more than 17 years and is a supervisor with the Highway Patrol. He is now on administrative duty.
Internal Affairs is investigating the incident, according to police. The FOP says it will defend Josey “to the end.”
McNesby said officers don’t know what’s being thrown at them, it has been bleach and urine in the past. He cautioned people not to judge the incident by a small clip of video.
This is not the first time that Josey has found his name in the headlines.
NBC Philadelphia reports that Josey was exonerated in the shooting death of a Philadelphia man suspected of robbing a convenience store in March 2010. Further, Josey was stabbed in the back while breaking up a fight outside a bar in Philly.
The executive director of Concilio, which puts on the parade every year, released the following statement demanding that the police investigate the incident thoroughly:
“While thousands of people celebrated at Concilio’s Puerto Rican Day Parade on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, an unexplainable incident was taking place at a community-run activity in North Philadelphia.
While we have no knowledge of what led to the incident, it is clear from the video that a police officer unnecessarily and brutally struck a woman in the face.”

She didn’t spray the silly string. If she did, it still doesn’t justify the cops actions.
Why did she go to internal affairs? Why do people go to cops to investigate cops? It’s a dead end. In their world it is nearly impossible to get justice on an officer on duty. I am telling you people you need to learn the real law. I would have a $300,000 lien on this guys property in about 3 weeks.

Just sad you seem to be so blind to the facts in your face. Maybe if they didn’t antagonize the police they wouldn’t have problems with them. They aren’t oppressed by the police, they bring it on themselves.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 7:35pmI haven’t met a “good” police officer that didn’t take out their frustrations by beating their spouses and children. The police are easy to train because, unlike the military, they are not smart and their trainers capitalize on the only thing they are good at, which is beating people up. After re-watching both videos and re-reading THE MONK’s response, I can boil all of this down: If you disagree with the cops [and the monk], then your constitutional rights are taken away, you deserve to be beaten (and sometimes shot and raped) up, cops ban civil conversations, and do whatever it takes to put fear into the minds of the locals within their district.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 7:37pmCook the Nazis did not take people away and beat them. The Nazis pulled over in the middle of a busy intersection and got out and grab a few people and beat them in front of everyone – it shut everyone up.
This cop was responding to something this lady did and she probably got what she deserved. I don’t condone the way the cop handled it, but it appears that she did something off camera that pissed this cop off.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 7:09pmJust before they turn around, you can see someone in black shorts and shirt, steps into the picture and throws a cup or liquid, I’m assuming beer, on the cops. They turn around and see her standing there and assume she is the one who had done it. I think that’s what set it off, but regardless, even if she had, the proper response would not be to hit her in the face.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 6:37pmAida Guzman is an idiot for spraying silly string at a cop. The police department is the largest gang on the earth and maybe Guzman realizes that now. They signed up to shoot, harass, assault, bludgeon, and (in some cases) rape people. They are citizens just like everyone else and not part of any honorary cause like the people serving in the military. The military protects our country; the police just protect each other, just like any gang member would stick up for a fellow gang member. Cops are mentally retarded idiots that have been conditioned to see only the bad in people. They suspect everyone and trust no one – which is why domestic violence is almost guaranteed in a cop household. Courts have been forced make vague laws on what force can be defined as “excessive” because it’s an underlying true assumption that cops are thugs and murderers. Maybe Ms. Guzman realizes that now…

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 6:25pmshe was moving away and was about to run but was so small that she could not outrun the reach of the officer. He is so large (or she so small and either way there is a HUGE difference) that he had no justification to hit her from behind. The only reason he did not hit her in the back of the head was his reach was so large.
This cop is a thug…NO….this THUG IS A COP. Just like New Orleans, DC, Chicago, affirmative action hires turned into affirmative action promotions. If this guy is not a minority AA incompetent then his boss is.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 10:29pmI agree, however between the unions and the good old boy mentality of the police department nothing is going to be done. What is there to investigate? The boss needs to watch the recording, talk to witness and the officers, take action. DONE!!! By doing nothing (err…investigating it) this boss IS doing something.
IMHO this is why cops (even the good ones) are beginning to receive low public opinion – they cannot or will not police themselves and clean house of the thugs.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 6:20pmLook at the first 2 seconds of the video. She sneaks up on a blue shirted Cop and pulls something out of his pocket (or hits him with something), holds it up high in her left hand and skips backwards as the Cop turns after feeling that something was removed from his rear pocket (or he was hit with the thing she was holding in her left hand). The blue shirted Cop tells the white shirted Cop and he nails her as she’s fleeing.
She did wrong, knew it and was trying to flee.
Never pick pocket a Cop (or sneak up and jab him)… especially while he’s busy during a stop with a mob around him.
Yep, you just might get nailed. Stupid b itch.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 8:01pmHi Mutiny,
Couldn’t agree more. The Cop should not of hit her. Yet, when Cops are in a situation like that and tensions are high it’s best not to sneak up and mess with them. Anything might happen.
Image if the Cop she messed with turned around and shot her. She’ll survive the punch but maybe not the other. Both were wrong. But at least she’s alive.
DON’T SNEAK UP ON COPS AND MESS WITH THEM; ESPECIALLY WHEN TENSIONS ARE HIGH.

I never said anything was retrieved.
Explain why she came up behind one Cop, Thew her left arm up as she jumped back and why the other Cop turned around so quickly?
I don’t know what happened but that first second of the video shows me she was up to no good, did something wrong and that her actions support my theory. Wait until some more video from another angle comes out. That is IF the other Puerto Ricians there with cameras will post something that shows her deeds.

again, i watched the slow-motion version on another site and she didn’t touch anyone.
and, the only way you can suggest she was up to no good is if LEO was using their thought crime technology; although i didn’t see it. maybe it’s in the street cam.
cops will not be with you, unless you’re going to lay down and offer your belly when the shtf. that’s reality. there will be some defectors, but most of these Constitutional-hating thugs are going to be looking to enforce the corp/govt madates, just like the nice little bagmen that they are. no different than mafia. heck, i personally new some mafiosa that were pretty cool cats, other than the fact they were murderers and all-around criminals.

I have re-watched it over and over into the ground. Nothing was stolen and the woman did not “pickpocket” the cop. You dodge all my questions with insults so I am going to have to assume that you’re an ex-cop with anger problems that resulted in a few innocent bystanders’ deaths, that you were suspended indefinitely pending a psychiatric evaluation, your wife left you and took the your kid after you beat her, hence your “choice” to become a monk. Work on those anger issues though, dude, cuz you’ve become drunk with guilt and rage. Or maybe pour gasoline on yourself and light a match to protest some “injustice.”

Sh has a can of silly string in her left hand that she sprays up and down on the crowd and the cops….this does not bother the cops. then as she is bouncing up and down to see what is going on a guy behind her squirts his water bottle at the cops which ****** them off and when they turn around they see her with a water bottle in her right hand and assume it is her. Even if it was her the punch in the face is not justified….she has one of the easiest law suits i have ever seen.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 6:25pmAll cops belong to the local gang. Notice how the other cops who saw the hit do nothing. It’s their code of silence. They wear gang colors and wear badges to operate outside the law. They are told to protect themselves and other cops first. They are ordered to make money for the local poliitical gang lords. The courts and corrupt judges are used to enforce the criminal unjust behavior. Best never to talk to a cop no matter what. Say zip. Just furnish ID. They are allowed to lie to you. You are arrested if you lie. Say nothing. Don’t accept any threats. Most cops work by using threats once they engage you in a conversation of questions. Say nothing. Ask them if you are being detained, charged, or are free to go. If they say “go” leave.

Posted on October 1, 2012 at 7:04pm@Prosecute, you have it exactly right. The largest gang on earth is funded by the tax dollars of past, present, and future victims living within their jurisdiction. That badge gives them a license to shoot other people, beat innocent people, use force against anyone that questions their authority (many cops beat up their wives, children, and other family members), etc. They will only protect, serve, and show allegiance to other gang members wearing the badge.
