Closer than you might have think. The judge notes before discussing he officer's testimony that he is a West Point graduate and was injured in Iraq.

The judge's order spells out a lot of it, but none of the witnesses (including the non-police ones) supported the prosecution's version of events, the prosecution never managed to prove he planted the drop gun, and the defense did a good job of creating reasonable doubt.

I don't think self defense should clear you of murder when you put yourself in harms way needlessly I am not the justice system. Edited for clarity.

What were the prosecutors prosecuting on if the plaintiff was dead and their version of events differered from the video and witnesses. Like apparently what the witnesses said was still bad, but not "definitely planted the gun" reasonable doubt.

bird food bathtub posted:That is....wow. I have not heard about that cop story until today and holy poo poo balls if the place erupts into riots it sounds totally justified to me. When does it get to the point where those communities tell the police to just stay the gently caress out, they feel safer without them around? Sure as poo poo looks like it's heading that direction. It's kind of amazing. My coworkers are almost exclusively middle aged white women and they all think this is bullshit. Facebook and friends are reporting the same, that even middle class white suburbanites around here think he should have been convicted.

Eh, I lived in Albuquerque during the federal investigation. The cops were consistently escalating harmless situations into ones where they could have an excuse to beat or murder somebody. Usually this gets hand-waved as "lack of training." Makes me wonder just what the hell they're being taught in the months and years of training they already receive.

It's worth noting that Buffalo of all places went more than four years without a fatal police shooting, thanks in part to good luck, good training, and a focused effort on working with the community.

I think cops should be embedded with communities, particularly higher risk communities like inner cities. Instead of cops only showing up when a body drops in Chicago, for example, those kids should know cops by name and be able to feel like they are friends with them. That might go a long way to helping alleviate a lot of inner city violence AND eliminating distrust between people and the police. I'm probably talking crazy talk and describing some utopia where funding exists and cops aren't as scared of young black men in the inner cities as much as young black men in the inner cities are scared of cops. But hey a guy can dream.

NUKES CURE NORKS posted:I think cops should be embedded with communities, particularly higher risk communities like inner cities. That's literally what's described in the article I posted: quote:[A]t Buffalo’s 2006 Juneteenth festival, a young man fired toward a crowd with a machine pistol. Violence was a recurring problem at Buffalo Juneteenth, where local gang members went to intimidate their enemies. Nineteen-year-old Pierre Martin heard gunfire that afternoon and believed his friends were in danger. He returned fire with a MAC-10, the bullets escaping so quickly that he lost count of the shots. Miraculously, no one was struck. But the police went after him, and Pierre Martin began to run.

Hot take: the judge and prosecution were sandbagging because persecuting cops like they were citizens happens like never. They did the paperwork for the killing but that doesn't justify it.
