Delaware State Trooper Dempsey R. Walters allegedly beat two teens after
a prank

A Delaware state trooper's "heinous attack" on two teenagers in response
to a doorbell-ditch prank was "unspeakably violent," one of the teen's
lawyers, Sam Davis, said.

Trooper Dempsey Walters, 29, was indicted on several criminal charges
after he allegedly beat a 17-year-old and held him at gunpoint during an
arrest.

Then he allegedly punched a handcuffed 15-year-old "with such force"
that it broke his orbital socket and gave him a concussion with
complications causing "severe brain trauma," Davis said.

"Their whole notion of safety was destroyed," Davis told Fox News
Digital. "It was such a gross overreaction to a kid's prank. � They both
thought they were going to be killed in that takedown."

Delaware State Police said in a statement that one officer's alleged
actions shouldn't overshadow the dedicated work of the state troopers
and vowed to restore trust with the community "no matter how long it
takes."

"During the indictment announcement, Col. (Melissa) Zebley expressed the
Delaware State Police�s sadness and anger about the incident. We hope
that the actions of one person do not overshadow the dedicated work of
over 700 troopers who serve and protect our community on a daily basis,"
Sgt. India Sturgis said.

"We understand the seriousness of this situation and want to assure the
public that we are taking all necessary measures to prevent any similar
incidents from happening again. More broadly, we are committed to
restoring the trust that has been damaged, no matter how long it takes.

"The Delaware State Police is grateful for the continued support and
understanding of our communities."

The 15-year-old, who was identified by his first name, Jadyn, along with
a couple friends, played "ding-dong ditch" on Aug. 21 and banged on
Walters' door while his girlfriend was home, according to court
documents.

She called Walters, who was on duty at the time, and Walters allegedly
reported the incident as a home invasion.

That sparked a multi-agency law enforcement response that included a
state police chopper and K-9 units.

"The local teenagers were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time
and were attacked by the trooper, who was their local neighbor," Davis
said.

That's why he called this an example of "state-sanctioned swatting."

"We know that swatting is calling in a false report that activates a
SWAT team," Davis said. "Here, it was a police officer who called in a
knowingly false misstatement of what he had to know happened, which is a
kick on his door.

"That activated a small army of law enforcement from Delaware, which
included a helicopter, a K-9 unit, long rifles and between 15 and 25 law
enforcement officers."

The other alleged victim, identified as 17-year-old Al, had nothing to
do with the prank and didn't know Jadyn, Davis said.

Four days earlier � on Aug. 17 � Al argued with Walters, who lives in
the same neighborhood, while he was off duty, according to court
documents.

The next day, Walters used the police database to look up Al's
information.

Arrest of teen who was not playing 'ding-dong ditch'
Walters was one of several law enforcement officers who forced two
teenagers, including 17-year-old Al, from their homes at gunpoint.

The officers knocked them to the ground, barked commands "to stop
resisting" and cuffed them while they screamed, according to bodycam
footage released by the Delaware AG's Office.

The teens responded, "I'm not resisting," or "I'm not moving."

The bodycam footage from the local Newport Police officer shows an
officer in a bulletproof vest standing over one of the teenagers with a
rifle pointed at his back.

During that time, Al was on a phone call with his mom, who heard the
entire incident, Davis said, which traumatized both of them. Al left his
home to live with his aunt to get out of the neighborhood, where Walters
lives too, he said.
