Once UAL said he needed to go and he refused he was trespassing. He needed to go, one way or the other and unfortunately he chose option B.
What evidence? To prove whether a passenger should have his teeth knocked out? The question here is not what the passenger did he was just sitting there, it's how it was handled. That's why again, the cop is suspended and United will pay. You're just not seeing that you're wrong on this one.
I blame the gate agent. They needed to offer more money or do something, there's no need for passengers to get beaten up.
