More details have come to light about alleged offending of a South Australian police officer accused of assaulting four people while on the job, including allegations he said "words such as whoopsie" when applying force to a person's body.
Benjamin Oliver McLeod, 40, is facing eight charges of aggravated assault arising from four alleged incidents between August and December 2020.
The incidents were picked up as a result of an audit of police officer body-worn camera footage.
The prosecution alleges that the officer used unreasonable force during the course of four individual arrests.
Magistrate Kym Millard today read out the prosecution's case while delivering his decision on whether he would sever the four charges and have them tried separately.
