Had to stop reading. I have no words.
Insane. Fucking disgusting.
They didn’t include it in the article, but this fuckin “good squad” was called to the place because “two black men were staying with a white woman.” Thats was the call.
Who the fuck made that call? They obviously knew this type of outcome was likely, because that’s not fucking illegal. No one makes that call without knowing these types of fucking scum would be responding. So where the fuck is that indictment.
jfc. I hope they go to prison for the maximum. That shit was hard to read.
Unfortunately, I suspect there is no way they agreed to a guilty plea without an offer on the table.
I heard an NPR piece on it last week, and that was more than enough for me. When are we going to start holding law enforcement to a higher standard than everyone else? Instead of qualified immunity, we should start saying that an officer found guilty of a crime gets double the punishment of a regular citizen. Yes, that means fewer people will want the job - I’m okay with that.
I don’t often advocate for the death penalty, but fuck these pigs. They don’t deserve to live. That or solitary life imprisonment.
Shades of the Abner Louima case.
This is revolting.
Also, his life was heartbreaking too.
He had been trained as an electrical engineer in Haiti, but in New York, Louima was unable to get a position related to his education. He worked as a security guard in a water and sewage plant in the Flatlands area of Brooklyn."
Jesus Christ on a cracker. I thought the headline was bad, and the article made it so much worse. I don’t even have words.
This is America.
