Police Beat Father To Death While He Begs For Help


Police Beat a Father To Death While He Begs For Help - Then Arrest Witnesses and Confiscate Video



BAKERSFIELD, CA -- Kern County deputies beat an intoxicated man to death in the street Tuesday night, then detained and intimidated witnesses, confiscated video evidence, and arrested another man who spoke out. David Silva was beaten with batons, left in a pool of blood until an ambulance finally arrived after he was already dead.

A female 9-1-1 caller named Selena told the dispatcher, "There's a man laying on the floor, and your police officers beat the (expletive) out of him and killed him." She said that she witnessed the victim do nothing wrong to cause 8 officers to bludgeon him to death. "These cops had no reason to do this to this man."

A 19-year-old male witness, Ruben Ceballos, was awakened around midnight by screams and loud banging noises outside his home. He said he ran to the left side of his house to find out who was causing the ruckus."When I got outside I saw two officers beating a man with batons and they were hitting his head so every time they would swing, I could hear the blows to his head." He said that Silva was on the ground screaming for help, but officers continued to beat him After several minutes, Silva stopped screaming and was no longer responsive, according to Ceballos.

Another witness, Jason Land, said that he witnessed the beating of David Silva. "They jumped out, reached for their bats, and beat that man until they killed him," he said, "right in front of my face." Land spoke up about what he saw and was arrested as retaliation. The witness was on probation and says police responded to his eyewitness report by claiming he was high on PCP and arrested him without any proof.

Witnesses also say that the victim's body was left to bleed out in the street for a prolonged period without any medical attention, wasting crucial minutes before the ambulance arrived. By that point, it was too late and CPR attempts were futile.

Other witnesses, including Melissa Quair, were harassed and told that they must surrender their cell phones as "evidence." Their houses were even searched as a crime scene in order to confiscate the video evidence.

The victim's brother, Christopher Silva, says his brother was murdered and wants justice. He is demanding that his brother's body be released so that he can see the result of the beating. He wants the confiscated videos to be released. "My brother spent the last eight minutes of his life pleading, begging for his life. The true evidence is in those phone witnesses that apparently the sheriff deputies already took. But I know the truth will come out and my brother's voice will be heard."

    1. Allowing it to happen? You're kidding right? After they coldly murdered a guy in front of their eyes, by beating him to death, you would jump out there and start yelling at them?

    2. come on think about it if you saw a bunch of low life bastard cops (and i use that term loosely) would you jump in to help? they would most likely beat the crap out of anyone trying to help. these pos bastards are out of control, it's no wonder people don't trust cops any more with bastards like this on the force.

    3. i live in bakersfield and let me tell u these cops will beat the heck outta u too...it is so unfortunate...that this stuff happenes...just the people who called 911 got their homes and privacy invaded and one witness was arrested...so imagine trying to interfere they would have been beaten and charged with obstruction and they would have let the dog loose that was on stand by. it is just a big mess and so so sad. not only that the corner it was on is in a really dirty drug infesed area across the street from the hospital where david silva was coming from trying to get seen because he was having a difficult time dealing with some family issues and being intoxicated he wandered out into the neighborhood onto that corner where these cops thought that people there aren't gonna do anything...or say anything....but thats what happen for judging and assuming they could get away with this.

    4. Yeah u do something about it. There are sheep and there are wolves! Don't be a fucking sheep! You are an American citizen and if you kneel down and allow this to happen then don't complain at the end of the day! You have rights and a voice you need to voice them to the people that matter! At the end of the day, every witness that saw that had the thought "I should have done _____" Not saying it would have changed the situation but guilt is is caused by the lack of action!

  5. Gosh, I hope the people that had evidence recorded on their phones figured out a way to copy the video footage to an online site like qik. I highly recommend that site because as you record an incident live, you have the option to also stream it live online as it is occurring. So even if they lost the phone or the police wiped it clean, the footage has already been uploaded online and was probably shared by viewers. I hope all these officers involved are locked up for life without the chance of parole. Please don't give them the death penalty because the treatment they will receive in prison from other inmates will be far better than ending their lives.

    1. It's difficult to guess how one may react (due to adrenaline) as a witness to such an atrocity, but I would definitely try to help, I think. Judging by my natural disposition, I'd be extremely vocal and now that I know about qik (as suggested by a previous commenter) I'd surely document the crime!

  6. What will it take before people stop watching cops kill people and step in? I know that is a tall order, but unless people step in these cops will just keep on doing things like this.

  7. The punishment for police breaking the law should be twice that of regular citizens. They are entrusted to uphold the law and should be held to a higher standard. In this case however, life in prison is fitting. Like one commentator said, the punishment doled out by other inmates, some of whom may have gotten beat down by one or more of these guys, will be justice.

  8. All I can say is " Re volution" We have sat idly and allowed our government to kill us. We have been human guinea pigs with chemicals, vaccines, and military trained and armed police. If you think I am a conspiracy nut, look it up. I would have to look up details once again, but there has been congressional approval to use us for human experimentation without our knowledge since WWII. My daughter was PD in AZ and even she says " If you're not a conspiracy nut, then you're the one thats crazy". She quit and moved to Brazil. 911 was a front. The beginning of the end. It was done to create panic and we all fell for it. We have given up our liberties for a false flag that continues daily with mass shootings and dead suspects. Supreme court ruled the media may lie to us!!! And you fools still vote for the same two party POSs like they give a shit about us. How many of you even know how the electoral vote works? Or when taxes were instilled on income? Or how many felony laws are on the books as of 2011?( I tell you its over 10,000 with 80,000 pages of new federal laws passed in 2011 ) Do you notice that no other westernized citizens try to become American citizens anymore? Its all third worlders. Wake up.. We are the terrorist of the world and allowing these greedy pigs to continue is not only destroying America ( way past saving now) but the world, the environment our basic survival as a species. Hell Bush's own the largest underground aquifer in the world in Venezuela, and that pig in Texas has bought almost all the land and owns most of the water in USA. We ship our fresh water out in bladders the size of tankers miles long to China, leaving us with toilet water and have completely drain the majority of our springs. Come on people this is available on the net. For now. They are going to take your guns, they are going block you access to knowledge. They are evil.

  9. Why is there no police video, are they that good at covering their tracks? Every police car has a video recorder. If they did no wrong, it would show that.
    Let the video speak for itself.

    1. Lol dude, where I live (riverside county) along with LAPD and a lot of Cali. police and sheriffs departments, they've been refusing the court orders to put cameras in their cars for over 12 years now. A cop here can pull you over, say you did whatever he said you did and you'll get the ticket/fine/charge and it will stick!!! Unless you're one of the lucky ones that have another person tape it to prove you innocent (you cant be that person, they'll grab your phone or whatever device it may be, smash that sh*t then give you a few wacks for even trying) It honestly is the wild wild west out here, and you wonder why that guy started killing a bunch of cops from LAPD. In Cali. everyday theres a killing delt out my cops, I've watched a dude handcuffs to a railing while cops broke both his legs. you say anything, object, or anything you can say goodbye to yours too, and everyone can say o you have rights, you can say whatever you wana say, well with no cameras or anything whats stopping them from saying you rushed them and thats why they beat the shit out of you, its guilty till proven innocent out here, video cameras are you're only savior

    2. If you ever go to Oakland, LA, Riverside (Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Indio) look at the sheriffs and police cars, no cameras buddy!! LAPD threw a fit and said it invaded their privacy when they tried to make them show their bank account records cause you got police that have been there for 4 years driving brand new 911 porsche's (impossible under their pay for only 4 years) they're crooked as f**k and they flaunt it. Indio jail, my dad is a special building inspector (prevailing wage, does hospitals, school, fire stations, police stations) the cops told him why the elevator is specially made without a camera, if they want they'll take an inmate to the elevator and beat the sh*t out of him, they told that to him, right to his face, and where laughing about it.

  11. I am one of the biggest proponents of police officers and what they go through but these asshole cops are becoming more and more prevalent and it has to stop NOW! People are being murdered and beaten all the time and how many times does this happen that we don't hear about. BULLSHIT, these men and women are paid to uphold the law not abuse it, ignore it or circumvent it. This is murder plain and simple, MURDER MURDER MURDER........Did anyone see the cops in Semi Valley when Dorner was loose, they sot up two trucks with women in them delivering newspapers because the truck resembled the truck Dorner had escaped in. WHAT the FUCK is that, shooting up the back of a vehicle without knowing who is in the truck, before ever seeing a gun, before being shot at, before being yelled at or anything, they just jumped out and started shooting at these ladies trucks from behind....Only thanks to the good Lord did these 3 ladies escape with their lives, that and the poor ass shooting of those inbred dumbass cops shooting at 3 innocent women delivering newspapers to make ends meet at 4am in the morning...What kind of people do we have enforcing our laws....these men and women should be the best of us, the strongest of us emotionally and physically...they can't be trigger happy, ignorant racist scared children....Again this does not go for the 50% of the police officers that do an excellent job day in and out, this for that other half that has no business being in charge of our laws or people...PEACE OUT!
