Criminal Justice

From a “War on Drugs” that disproportionately targeted Black people, to mass incarceration and over-policing in majority Black neighborhoods — the American criminal justice system’s violence and inequality toward Black Americans is fueled by a long history of racism.

This is beyond deplorable:

PHOENIX, AZ — A Black man, who is deaf and has cerebral palsy is facing felony aggravated assault and resisting arrest charges after he was repeatedly punched and tasered by a pair of Phoenix police officers.

The violent and rapid arrest of Tyron McAlpin raises serious questions and could serve as a test case for Phoenix and the Department of Justice as the two battle over whether the police department in America’s fifth-largest city needs federal oversight.

Acting on false claims from a white man under investigation, body camera video shows officers unexpectedly go after McAlpin, punch him in the head at least 10 times, Taser him four times, and wrap their arms around his neck.

“It’s hard for me to see how the city can come out and say with [a] straight face that it is meeting the DOJ report head-on when this man is being charged with assault on police officers for this incident,” said Jesse Showalter, one of McAlpin's attorneys.

...
The violent arrest stems from a morning call from Circle K employees who reported that a White man was causing problems and wouldn’t leave the store, records show.

While being trespassed, the man claimed he was assaulted by a Black man and pointed across the street at McAlpin.

Officers Harris and Sue took the man’s claims at face value and left him to go after McAlpin. (The man’s assault claim was later refuted by store employees and surveillance video, records show.)

I hope the Feds step in and arrest these thugs and remove the judge that granted them the probable cause for the case to move forward, even tough he has seen that video!!! WTH!!!!

Edit: The prosecutor should also be facing misconduct charges for pursing any case against Mr. McAlpin based off the words of these KNOWN LIARS!!!!

White privilege front and center.

It's forking maddening that the cops talked to the man that they were called to trespass and all he had to say "some black guy did it" and off they went.

“A black guy did it”

Learned from an early age and also learned that at worst it will buy you time, at best, you get away Scott free

I hate people sometimes. You'd think we're supposed to evolve, but I'm not seeing much evidence of it.

Is that the incident where the cops were called because of a white man who was trespassing? Cops truly are colorblind

DENVER (AP) — A Colorado police officer who fatally shot a Black man holding what turned out to be a cellphone as police tried to arrest him will not be prosecuted, the district attorney announced Friday.

Officer Michael Dieck told investigators that he believed Kilyn Lewis, who was wanted in connection with a shooting in Denver, was holding a gun in his right hand and was about to fire at the officers in neighboring Aurora on May 23, District Attorney John Kellner said in a letter explaining his decision.

The other officers, who did not fire at Lewis, also described Lewis’ actions as consistent with someone preparing to draw a weapon and otherwise fight with officers, Kellner said.

Lewis was shot as police, who had been surveilling him, moved in to arrest him in the parking lot of a condo building. In portions of body camera footagepreviously released by police, the officers, who appear to emerge from unmarked vehicles, can be heard shouting at Lewis to get on the ground.

After taking a few steps next to his car and putting his right hand behind his back, Lewis raises his hands in the air, as if to surrender.

Kellner said Lewis showed his left hand but put his right hand in his right rear pocket, out of the view of officers. Lewis than raised his right hand holding an object, later identified as the cellphone, and Dieck fired one shot, he said.

Members of Lewis’ family have called for Dieck to be prosecuted for murder. Since the shooting, relatives and other supporters have turned out at city council meetings asking for justice.


In a statement posted on social media, members of Lewis’ family said they were “deeply disappointed and outraged” by Kellner’s decision. They said they were not given any notice of it and have not had enough time to fully review his 20-page letter yet.……
