Michael Freeman is going to have a lot of blood on his hands if he's stupid enough to do this

Are you suggesting he needs to charge someone despite potentially contradictory evidence (as he suggested) just because people want him charged?

We need to get the riots and looters under control. If there is other evidence that doesn't support charging the officer, then there's other evidence and I'll be waiting for it all to be released once the full investigation is concluded.

We don't have mob justice in this country.

I was told it would be different this time though and that protesters were rushing to conclusions and doing more harm than good.

There's no shit posting about it. The public, according to this prosecutor, doesn't know all of the facts about this case.

I want to see what their investigation finds.

Not only did this guy just justify the riots and violence towards police he gave everyone motivation to make things worse.

The only way there is extra evidence to dispute a charge is if the victim had a giant magnet inside his neck and the murderer had a giant magnet in his knee.

No, no there isn't. There is a video of a police officer kneeling on a man's neck until he died, despite onlookers yelling that the man was being killed, and despite the man himself saying he couldn't breathe. Everyone on the force is apparently taught never to apply pressure to the neck of a suspect because you can kill or injure them. The guy was handcuffed too. And apparently, the officer has killed other people.

fucking Meghan McCain saw the rest of the video and even she said he clearly was never resisting. And even if he was it wouldnt justify strangling him to death when you have him handcuffed on the ground with 3 people on top of him.

fuck outta here with that

And this is why the riots are completely justified. There is no justice for people of color in this country.
If you cannot trust your government to do justice where it needs to be done then it is your responsibility to be ungovernable.

so storm and destroy government property, not your neighbors business or homes.

also; if they cant even get this guy in court this whole city is a joke.

they better have some ridiculous evidence that no one has seen that somehow flashes everyones memory clean. Cause I dont see how he isnt AT LEAST charged and brought to trial.

Fucking amazing. Let's hope it's enough to actually fight back.

Oh and if I get hit for any of this, let it be known, not that it's unknown, that this site would rather have blatant racists here than someone who's had enough of this bullshit from the cops.

It's very possible they won't charge him. Now that riots have broken out it's going to be more about dick flexing and not backing down or giving protesters what they want. That means not charging him.

The "evidence" could be something like the officers actions didn't kill him. Like the guy had an undetected brain clot or something.

Also, the evidence might be that an officer is shielded from prosecution when using "the correct amount of force" so like, if all the officers say this guy needed to get a knee in his neck they won't be prosecuted unless you can prove the murderer was doing it to murder and not restrain( does that make sense).

Either way, if the state doesn't charge them I really doubt Trumps department of justice will. So the 4 officers will get off Scott free and probably get their jobs back (with lawsuit against the city for emotional distress?)

What evidence could possibly support no criminal charges? The least they could do is explain their logic.
Cops, like politicians, are generally above the law. That's the logic.

As a cop myself, anything goes when the suspect is actively resisting and fighting us (with the reasonable force thats necessary).

But the *moment* the suspect is handcuffed, its over. Secure him in the car when necessary. I cant fathom why he just sat there with his knee in his neck. It was wrong and shouldnt have happened. Unacceptable.
