I just saw this on CNN and while I agree the girl should not have broken the law, I don't care what she did or said, I feel that this was a bit excessive and I am not sure, given his place of trust in society that a 1 year maximum is enough. Thoughts anyone? Video and article below:

Snipped:
The affidavit, which is based upon King County Detective Jeff Johnson's investigation and security camera video, said that "once inside the cell, (the girl) was removing her shoes and kicked her left shoe off and it struck Deputy Schene below his right knee. Deputy Schene entered the cell and did a front kick at (the girl) which appeared to strike her in the upper left thigh area."
The girl later told an investigator that her basketball shoe had "flipped" out and hit Schene, who then told her that constituted assaulting an officer. The girl denied resisting arrest at any time, the papers said.
When the girl stepped back after the kick, "Deputy Schene pushed her onto the back wall. Deputy Schene then took (her) down to the floor by her hair and had her in a handcuffing position. While on the floor, Deputy Schene looked to have (her) in a hair hold and was pulling her head and neck upward," court papers said.
The affidavit said Schene in the video makes "two overhead strikes down towards" the girl, but the camera angle does not capture where they landed.
