Thank you for writing this. I’d heard something about the case, though I did not know the details. I think it’s critical that cops all over the US be held to strict account.
Journalists and other public voices mistkeep the details of police atrocities in front of the public all the time.
Police departments will not reform themselves. Only the public, disgusted by the brutal behavior of racist police officers, have any hope of forcing change.
Let’s keep shouting out these details. Let’s keep letting the public know how disgusting these police officers and police departments are.
Hitting a kid multiple times over the head with a flashlight? We ought to be storming police departments in outrage over that.
I’m just beyond words here.
I just can’t believe that he could do something so awful, and pay zero price for it. Police departments are so awful. Police unions are so awful. A huge percentage of police officers are such pigs.
Can you imagine going to work everyday knowing your colleague did something like this, and not standing up and doing something about it?
I can’t. That’s why I say cops are pigs. They either do shit like this or they tolerate shit like this. Only pigs behave like this.
