COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - Five additional West Point officers have been placed on paid leave following a viral video from a home security camera, say public information officers.
On August 7, Tomeshia Madden captured footage of an officer allegedly throwing one of her security cameras in some bushes and using a derogatory racial slur while referring to her son.

The footage since then has gathered nearly 20,000 views on Facebook and hundreds of shares.
The West Point Police Department initially placed one officer, Ofc. Donald Bramblett, on administrative leave immediately following the video’s circulation, saying,

We have been made aware of a video circulating on social media involving one of our officers. Ofc. Bramblett has been placed on administrative leave pending further investigation. Nothing further at this time.

However, following a private meeting with Madden’s attorney, Wendell Major, the department has placed the added officers -- - Dylan Harmon, Zachary Heyboe, William Osteen, and Detective Elizabeth Wegienka -- on paid leave and turned the investigation over to the Georgia Bureau of Investigations.
The department released another statement, adding,

In addition to a prior media release, additional officers have also been placed on paid administrative leave. The West Point Police Department is taking this matter very seriously and has since turned the investigation over to the Georgia Bureau of Investigations (G.B.I.).

As of now, the names of those additional officers have not been released.
Major released a statement on the family’s behalf, stating,

This family is traumatized and disappointed by the actions of the West Point Police department. The actions of the members of the West Point Police Department depicted in the video are unacceptable. The systems treatment of citizens of the community needs to be addressed by the city leaders. On behalf of the family, we intend to get answers and request prayers for the just resolution to this cancer within our criminal justice system. Furthermore, families have a right to expect the police to help keep their children safe and will put that safety above all else. Every citizen who sees this horrific video can’t help but think the same thing ‘That could have been my home.’ How many times have these officers acted out without the benefit of a video? We expect the city leaders to accept responsibility and to work to make things right for this family and the community.

According to Major, the officers in the video were there to execute an arrest warrant on Madden’s son.

When Madden learned of the reason for the police visit, she turned her son in.
