Could you elaborate more about the controversial grand jury decision? I've heard that there may have been either incompetence or malfeasance on the prosecutor's part when it came to how she handled things.

Can someone give me a summary of what happened without any spin one way or the other. You should probably just watch this to get an idea of how black people and police officers all too often interact in the US.

Michael Scott posted:As people who follow this sort of stuff know, that officer was immediately fired, arrested, and charged with felony assault; the trial is still ongoing. Actually I'd say that the reason the cop was prosecuted so quickly was due to the presence of the dash cam. It's just so obvious the guy was just leaning into his car casually to retrieve his license, and any bullshit on the cop's part that it was some aggressive leap into his truck to possibly retrieve a weapon is bullshit.
