They tried right at the start, that footage was included. It seemed like the big problems started when she refused help, although they were so cruel and violent from there that I suspect they both had some underlying issues with women. The recurring theme with a lot of these really bad incidents is that it feels like the officers are just waiting for someone to give them the chance to beat the shit out of a person with zero repercussions.
