Nine months pregnant Deanna Robinson, 38, was arrested on charges of assault on a public servant, resisting arrest and interfering with child custody, at her parents’ home on March 4. Robinson’s 9-year-old stepson, had apparently shared with his teacher the events of a domestic violence incident, that had occurred at his home. After receiving an order from Child Protective Services, the sheriff’s department then preceded to force their way into her parent’s home, to take away Robinson’s 18-month-old son.
A cell-phone video, however, shows that Robinson was hit four or five times by a sheriff’s deputy, from Hunt County, during the child abuse investigation. The short clip posted online, appears to show a deputy violently punching Robinson, even after she repeatedly told him she was pregnant.
Robinson said her stomach hit the kitchen counter repeatedly during the incident, causing heavy bruising. “It’s ridiculous, it’s insane. I was handcuffed almost immediately and shoved into a corner by two giant men. I wouldn’t have had an opportunity to assault anyone. There’s nothing to warrant what they did to me,” she told NBCDFW.
Hunt County Sheriff, Randy Meeks, said that an investigation was underway. It will determine whether the deputy, Josh Robinson, was at fault. “I have requested that the Texas Rangers conduct an independent investigation into this incident in the interest of transparency and preserving public confidence in the Hunt County Sheriff’s Office. I believe before judgment is rendered the whole truth needs to be examined,” Meeks said.
The baby was born March 15, after Robinson had been released from jail, and is currently with Robinson’s parents. The 9-year-old, who has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair, is the oldest of Robinson’s three stepchildren. She also has a toddler. All of them are with Child Protective Services.

Revolution is the only way!!!
How do you imagine this taking place?
Kill all cops.
Why go killing cops are you stupid you no better then a murderer its called fire all cops its only a job position to enforce the laws if people started enforcing the laws there would be no need for cops but i would say some laws are foolish to a point
citizens are’nt allowed to enforce any laws. if they attempt to, they would end up being the ones being arrested.
what the hell that is not cool
I wouldn’t want her around my kid.
Wow what a bitch ass cop! I think all cops should be drug, alcohol, and steroid tested randomly and after every excessive and deadly use of force incident! I bet more then 50% of them would come up positive!
