An Anne Arundel County Police Board allowed officer Daniel Reynolds to keep his job after being caught on video kneeling on the back of a 27-year-old Black man.
In the video of the unwarranted traffic stop, Reynolds is seen pinning Daniel Jarrells to the ground as both men scream profanities.
The Anne Arundel County Police Department initially suspended Reynolds with pay last summer after Jarrells alleged in a lawsuit the officer placed a knee on his neck during a February 2019 arrest.
An internal investigation initially recommended firing Reynolds, but he requested a trial board to appeal the recommendation.
The board found him guilty of excessive force but announced they are not recommending firing; instead, they suggested Reynolds should take anger management classes.
