------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Ten sheriff's deputies have been suspended in California after their
savage beating of a man was caught on video. A news helicopter filmed
the deputies kicking and punching Francis Pusok as he lay face down in
the desert after a chase. The FBI is investigating whether Pusok's civil
rights were violated.
