Quoting a lot of the text since the article is behind the Advocate pay wall.
Tell her to suck 10 million dicks.

A local attorney sued the Baton Rouge Police Department earlier this week claiming officers used excessive force during a welfare check, which escalated after a profane outburst from the lawyer and ended with him handcuffed to a hospital bed receiving treatment for broken ribs and a punctured lung.
Baton Rouge attorney Jeffry Sanford was booked into jail last August after his release from the hospital. He was later charged with felony resisting a police officer with force or violence.
He claims Cpl. Joshua Kirst and Officer Herbert Allen violated his constitutional rights. A BRPD spokesman said the department conducted an internal investigation soon after the incident and cleared both officers of wrongdoing. Officials declined to comment on specific allegations from Sanford, whose complaint presents his perspective on what happened the night of Aug. 23. His ex-wife asked police check on their son, who was 12 at the time and staying with his dad, because she was unable to reach them by phone, according to the lawsuit.
The officers knocked on the door and told Sanford why they were there. "Upon hearing that his ex-wife called the police, Mr. Sanford did the sign of the cross," the complaint reads. He said her concern "was wholly unfounded and without factual basis" and he "became upset that the police, unannounced, had interrupted his evening with a non-criminal matter without either prior notice or a warrant." So, according to the lawsuit, he "very calmly" gave the officers a message for his ex-wife: "Tell her to suck 10 million d****."
Kirst responded by saying he understood the sentiment, according to the complaint. But when the officer tried to keep asking questions, Sanford said, "f*** you" and started to close the door. His profane speech was protected under the First Amendment, his attorneys argue in the complaint. Kirst then became "visibly angry" and told Sanford not to talk to him like that, the complaint says. The two officers barged into the house "without permission, a warrant, or probable cause of a crime being committed," according to Sanford. Once inside, a physical confrontation ensued. The lawsuit accuses Kirst of "violently striking Mr. Sanford" while Allen used a stun gun on him.

Going by the facts presented in the OP I have to side with the lawyer.
A "wellness check" doesn't give them the authority to do shite.

If true, kiss a few million good bye from BR. Cops are dumb.

He will absolutely win and may get the jobs of those cops. This is what 42 U.S. Code §?1983 was written for. Not only that, the cops themselves are personally liable because they violated his 4th amendment rights.
There is a Louisiana case, White vs. Morris that states;
quote:
"The right of personal liberty is one of the fundamental rights guaranteed to every citizen, and any unlawful interference with it may be resisted. Every person has a right to resist an unlawful arrest; and, in preventing such illegal restraint of his liberty, he may use such force as may be necessary."
Our lawyer friend is totally justified and has case law on his side. Those two cops are screwed.

I dunno.
quote:
In their probable cause report documenting the arrest, however, the officers described Sanford as "physically abusive." He immediately started using vulgar speech — including calling his ex-wife a b**** and telling police to beat her brains out — and clenched his fists once police made contact, the report states.
quote:
He later punched an officer in the face, according to police. Because of his violent attitude and body language, officers believed his son could be in danger, the report says.
Plus he has a history of Domestic Abuse.
Can the officer's enter the home if they believe the child's safety is at risk?
I don't think it is as clear cut as you claim. It will be interesting how it plays out.

Susan has called the cops MANY times on this crazy bastard. He is an absolute a-hole. He has pulled guns on her multiple times. He needs to spend some quality time in prison and get a lesson in respect. He is the lowest of the low.

Got three so far ready to condemn the cops based on nothing but the carefully written words of a lawyer in a lawsuit

You’re assuming it was illegal. Cops will argue they were performing a “wellness check” and discovered a situation where they became concerned for the child.
My ex wife pulled this BS on me one time when my kid got mad at her and stopped responding to her multiple calls/texts. It’s insane a crazy mom can call the cops and intrude on your time without consequences. The cops told me they knew she’s crazy but they cannot leave until they verify the physical safety of the child. It’s infuriating but I brought my son to them at the door. Took 5mins. My kid was like WTF

They did that to an attorney, at his house, without a warrant? Dude is about to be paid.

Sure, if we take the allegations in the complaint as completely true.
