After Shelby was just announced not guilty, things might get bad. Hopefully we can keep it peaceful.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Terence_Crutcher

"Police stated that Crutcher kept reaching into his pocket, refused to show his hands, walked towards his vehicle despite being told to stop, and then angled towards and reached into his vehicle."

"Homicide Sergeant Dave Walker stated that PCP had been recovered from Crutcher's car. Shelby's attorney had previously stated that she thought Crutcher might be under the influence of PCP based on what she learned during her drug-recognition training. Crutcher's father had stated in a 2012 affidavit that his son had a history of PCP use."

Fair, next.

It would be difficult to convict based on the circumstances even if that cop is a routine racist piece of shit

They might have had a better case if they went for 2nd degree manslaughter or lower, but as is, it seems like there wasn't enough of a case to support the charge they wanted.

For people pissy about the outcome, it's also worth noting that the officer (if not the entire department) is probably still on the hook for a "Wrongful Death" civil suit, which would have a much better chance of succeeding, so it's not as if this is a pure win for the police either.

I honestly dont care that she wasnt convicted. Im more pissy that black men continuously lose their lives in what should be injury free confrontations with the police.

The dude was high and incoherent, he wasnt refusing to comply out of malice or disregard and the stupid thing was the other cop was behaving rationally and disabling a 40 year old unarmed man with a taser gun so that he could be booked and sent home to his family... the stupid pig then decided to murder him for reasons unknown.. I guess because oh merh gawd big scary black man ooooh its the bogeyman. Either that or shes one of the numerous sickos that looks for the first excuse she can find to murder someone who doesnt comply with her authoritay

^I'm gonna pretend you didn't even say that.

Everything's been surprisingly normal. Especially considering this is the home of the legendary race riots. Or maybe it's because of that.
