What purpose is it serving? Walking someone down the middle of a street, tied to a horse. In 2019.

You can just put him in a squad car? Wtf? On a main street. There are cars everywhere.

There's no hoops being jumped through. He was arrested. What were they supposed to do, nicely ask him to follow them?

Do cops ever stop and think about what they are doing? No matter the reason the dude was arrested there will be a negative spin put on this. Just wait for a cop car to show up and throw him in that.

Which is why you tell the people spinning it to frick off, not apologize for doing your job.

Wikipedia:
Cruel and unusual punishment is a phrase describing punishment that is considered unacceptable due to the suffering, pain, or humiliation it inflicts on the person subjected to it.

There are generally tests that can serve as a guide to what cruel and unusual punishment is according to various legal textbooks in accordance with the law. These are:

1. Overall acceptance in society,
2. Severity (the punishment fits the crime), and
3. If the punishment is arbitrary.

Also. This is easily settled depending on what the written procedure is. If they're in line with written procedure then they did nothing wrong. If they made a judgement call and broke procedure then they should at least be made to look like idiots.
