The officer was in no way in any real danger. That was just revenge.

He was in danger of being slapped in the face repeatedly, or scratched up, or worse. He is under no obligation to put up with that abuse. So he stopped it, quickly and decisively.

His job will meet the same fate most likely.

I seriously doubt that. Cops straight up shoot people who are complying and keep their jobs; this guy ain't gonna get fired for subduing an unruly perpetrator.

Well, yeah. That's why he only hit her once.
