Long Island police department responds to Trump: We don't tolerate roughing up prisoners
BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 07/28/17 05:40 PM EDT

The Suffolk County Police Department said they do not tolerate the “roughing up of prisoners” in response to President Trump’s address to police on Long Island on Wednesday, in which the president said cops should treat subjects violently.

“The SCPD has strict rules & procedures relating to the handling of prisoners. Violations of those rules are treated extremely seriously,” the department tweeted.
