There was a similar case near my house a few years ago: Danroy Henry Jr; a Pace football player and a white police officer, Aaron Hess (aka "Rudolf" Hess) met at a bar and the black kid ended up dead.
Imagine this: You are with your friends at a bar having a few beers. A brawl ensues and someone calls the police. Danroy, knowing danger is imminent, goes outside and gets his car, which he parks right in front of the bar waiting for his friends.
All of a sudden cops show up (Mt. Pleasant + Pleasantville police,) Danroy has no idea what the fuck is going on, a cop starts hitting his car, he thinks someone is trying to attack him so he hits the gas. Dumbass "Rudolf" Hess (Pleasantville police) gets in front of the car and shoots to kill. Another cop (Mt. Pleasant police) hears the gunshots and starts shooting at Hess, who is also a cop.
4½ years later, the judge lets this Hess asshole go free, even though a Mt. Pleasant cop indicated that Hess was the aggressor.
Hess is named Officer of the Year by the Pleasantville Police Department.
THIS is the shit that has to stop.
