The TLDR is this. The cops arrested a dude. He died in their custody. No real information was given about the cause of death. 6 months later video shows up (that is missing part of the audio, possibly due to tampering), it shows Lurrys (the dead man) nose held shut while in handcuffs for 1 minute and 38 seconds, while a police baton is in his mouth in the back seat of a squad car. The cop who leaked to the media that the tape existed gets fired. The cops who murdered the guy still have a job.

Good cops either don't talk so they keep their job or get fired for speaking out. And cops wonder why people are getting fed up.

I understand that he didn't have a right to leak the video, but there is no way the higher ups weren't aware of what was on that so it's not like bringing it to their attention would help matters. It was either let them get away with this or leak the video, I think morally he made the right decision.

Not only did the cop commit murder, but it was covered up. And he kept his job.

This and countless other instances like it are why the entire system needs to be rebuilt.

This happened in a town called, Joliet the Mayor is Bob O'Dekirk. He was a former cop.
He also served for the Police Union as well.

Things like this are why the "a few bad apples" line is bullshit. When the good apples like this one are stomped into mush as soon as they fall a little too far from the tree, of course the vast majority of the ones left are bad apples.

nope is the other way around this proves the good ones arent heard about but they are there

cant find the article right now but ive read the copsho dont have whistleblower protections
this is something i dont understand why isnt asked for
ive seen all the defund the police and other like asking for a change

but why didnt see anything about demanding whistleblower protections laws so they can speak up without fear of retaliation ?

Cops need to be held to a higher standard and suffer worse punishments.

And if you murder someone on the job like that, on camera no less, death penalty. Straight up.

You asked for more context. You're wondering if anything surrounding the event would justify what they're doing.

Or maybe he just wants to know why they shoved the Baton in his mouth. They were using their fingers and shit too

wanting answers to questions does not mean youre justifying anything

if someone murders someone and I say Why did they murder that guy Im not justifying the murder, I just want more context so I can understand exactly whats going on

Also fuck those cops, and I hope karma catches up with them

The one that was fired was the only good cop in that department.

Almost all good cops get fired. To be a good cop, you have to be ready to throw away your career.

Good point. Why isnt his entire department staging a walk out to protest the union not helping him like cops in NY did when the union said it wouldnt pay legal fees of a cop who shoved and almost killed a senior?

in a fair world the whole chain of command would be stripped of their badges for this.

This is why we need a national system that tracks all disciplinary action taken against any and all officers, the leaders that issued it, all relevant documentation attached.
