Russ repeatedly resisted arrest

Chief Casteen's letter addressed
to Williams yesterday at the close
of the departmental inquiry reads
as follows:
eve transmit to you herewith
the several affidavits and state
ments in this case, which relates
to assault on the part of Officer
C. j. Hinson upon Hosea Russ, at
the time and under the circum-
stances outlined in the Enclosures.
From a study Of this evidence,
it is my opinion that excessive and
unnecessary force was used, and
that the severity of the assault upon
Hosea Russ cannot be approved or
justified.
Accordingly, I am suspending
c. J. Hinson, without pay, and
recommend dismissal and a hear
ing by the commission to this end.
''In this connection, you will also
observe that Officer Hinson left his
beat without permission or justifi-
cation.
