Also, notice how he - He "allegedly" beat the student, according to f***ing video surveillance. It's always like this when the police are involved - Details are omitted, facts are twisted, and reports stress that it's an "alleged" incident.
I don't think the "allegedly" has anything to do with the fact that it was a policeman. When newspapers are reporting on crimes, they're generally very careful to use words like "allegedly" when attributing criminal acts to people who haven't been proven guilty in court, because if they're not careful, they can get sued for ... probably libel, but I'm not really sure.
