White cop guns down black man on video. Charged with murder! Live on CNN

[oldtimer1]

The cop stealing in the bodega should be charged and fired. That's exactly what will happen. The only time you can shoot a guy in the back is if he has a weapon he can turn an use or if you he is a threat to commit something like murder again. To let you guys understand this here's an example. The cops found where a serial killer lives. They kick in the door and find bodies. The killer is seen with a knife in his hand but drops it running away. You can blast away at his back assuming he is a risk to commit more murders.

I don't know the circumstances of why he shot the guy running away but from him but it looks like a homicide and he will be found guilty. 

A lot of cop hating on this thread from low lives that I assume have a lot of run ins with the law whether for criminal stuff or just traffic violations.

I like that race is staying out of it.  That clouds too many things with emotion.

Stick to the FACTS.  Person is running away from cop, unarmed.
Cop fires at him 8 times, striking him 5 times, when person was 10+ feet away and fleeing.
Cop handcuffs him and gives no medical attention, even though he claims CPR on the report.

Keep skin color out of it.  Cop shot someone he shouldn't have shot.  Period.

I find it funny when you say "stick with the facts" and then state Slager planted evidence 

[240 is Back]

It's a vicious circle which will get more intense.
This case was murder(8 shots of peace) along with the nicotine suffocation issue(smoking kills after all).
Brown was justified and a bullet well put.

If things happened according to how the cop said it, then yes.

Parts of his story included "I didn't call it in because my radio malfunctioned" and "i was a little baby and he was godzilla" and then, he estimated a 150 feet chase to be 30 feet.

Maybe if there's a video of that shoot, we're in a whole 'nother spot right now.   Look at this shooting - without a video?  The cop is cleared 100%, we all know it.

[Agnostic007]

Been a long time since the police actually did that.  If you are in danger, they will only arrive AFTER the event has transpired.

nope

[Agnostic007]

That's the thing: I never claimed I was a genius or smart or can go toe-to-toe with anyone (I am not saying I am smart, I am not saying I am not smart. I make no claims). You're the one who claimed that cops all secretly have such great IQ scores. So, try again before you put words into my mouth.

Not too bright, are we?  

Bicmc is probably the only smart cop out there!

Now you're just lying.. 

[Agnostic007]

A clear case of murder any way you slice it.

I'd say manslaughter for sure

[Tapeworm]

Alright.  Manslaughterer.

Geraldo: Dashcam Video Gets Officer Slager Off His Murder Charge



The dashcam footage released by North Charleston officials provides enough context about Officer Michael Slager‘s slaying of Walter Scott to get the cop off his murder charge, says Fox’s Geraldo Rivera.

Speaking with Fox & Friends, Rivera, a former attorney, said the video showed that the incident “started as a righteous traffic stop” because 50-year-old Scott was “acting very hinky and edgy” before bolting during the roadside exchange. This provides important context for the officer’s legal case, Rivera said (emphasis added):

There is reliable eyewitness account that there is then a struggle after the Taser. So, up until that point, the cop with his adrenaline pumping, now he’s been in a physical tussle, and now the perpetrator has reached for the Taser allegedly. Now it gives you the context of his blood boiling. [Officer Slager] has done everything professional and now he’s had this, this civilian has dared to physically have this altercation with the officer. Put that in the officer’s head now. I think it saves him from the murder rap.
The comfy couch hosts were stunned to hear him declare this wasn’t murder, and so Rivera clarified: “This is a horrible, horrible shooting, but there was no premeditation. This is manslaughter. I believe that this is manslaughter.”

When Steve Doocy mentioned how “one of the other morning shows on another channel” suggested Scott’s death was the result of police targeting black men — hoping for Rivera to shut down the race talk — the guest replied: “I don’t think there is any doubt that too many black moms fear cops when their kids go out more than they fear crooks.”

Doocy responded that “more white people are shot by cops than black people,” which prompted Rivera’s correction that he was speaking on the black community’s widespread perception, not statistics.

I think He is probably right.. It wasn't premeditated. Manslaughter will likely be the final result

In SC

"A person convicted of manslaughter, or the unlawful killing of another without malice, express or implied, must be imprisoned not more than thirty years or less than two years."

Except that there will be a Federal case for civil rights violation.. which you will serve every day of your sentence in the Federal system

[Agnostic007]

I don't give two bucket-fulls of horse shit as to why an officer has to presume everyone's out to get them. That's not his fucking job! His job, if he/she wants to genuinely "serve and protect," is to presume everyone's innocence and let a judge or a panel of jurors decide otherwise.

How fucking difficult is this for you numbskulls to understand? Why, WHY, must someone on page 12,456 have to remind everyone the basics of our legal system? It's on a piece of paper. Oh wait, you don't read.

the presumed innocent thing is a little vague.. If I presume someone innocent, why would I arrest them? Why would they sit in jail until trial often times? If someone is swinging at me.. it's a little tough to presume them innocent of attempting to assault me.. can you expound? Because I think "presumed innocent" mainly deals with the burden of proving guilt at trial

Thanks to independent witnesses and physical evidence in that particular case

Thanks to independent witnesses and physical evidence in that particular case

physical evidence actually countered what the cop said.

Blood evidence showed after being hit, he ran 150 feet to shoot again.  In his story, it was 30 feet. 

Either he can't judge distance, got his bell rung very hard with the punch, or is lying.  But the PD repeated that 30 feet lie over and over, KNOWING it was 150 feet.  They wished to minimize how long the cop ran with the kill order in his mind. 

Tough to justify wasting a fucker 150 feet from the original assault.  They kept trying to connect the two.  Cop got punched, made the decision to chase down and shoot Brown, and that's exactly what happened.  With a video, the ending is WAY different, you can bet on that.  That's 1/2 a football field, this "injured" cop ran.  Remember the PD leaking the "fractured orbital bone" lie over and over?  Never happened.

Ferguson is another example of 1) cops exaggerating shit and 2) police dept perpetuating a known falsehood to pacify the public.  Both of these practices can suck a dick.

We discussed this on the Fergesun page. You still won't listen to reason.

if it goes badly, south Carolina will burn

They'll burn shit anyway.

By burn I mean steal, of course.

That's a jury's job, dummy, not a cop's. Naive shit like that'll get you killed on the street.

You and 150, man. Let it f'n go. Brown is in a better place now. The cemetery.

[Tapeworm]

I wonder if anyone ever named their ice cream shop The Cream-atorium.  And then they actually put dead people's ashes in the ice cream and fed them to the unsuspecting public.  "Sprinkles?"  That'd be some twisted shit.

MY FAVORITE COP VIDEO...

[240 is Back]

Without a doubt, I think we can all agree... Without a video of this recent shooting, the cop's story holds up and the cop is never charged.  He paints the events his way, he claims they were closer, a taser found near body, and this goes down as a GOOD SHOOT.  I think we can all agree on this.  The bad guy is dead, the cop is a hero, and that's the end of it.   Makes you wonder how often incidents like this happen.

What country/decade are you living in, dude?

The cop is white. Your "bad guy" here is black. Under no imaginable circumstances, regardless of how legit this shooting might have been, the officer would never have been considered a hero. Nor would it have been the end of it.

Ask Darren Wilson.

[The Ugly]

Now what in the wide, wide, worlda sports is a goin' on here?

Spectacular ruckus. One dead.

It's ok, though, dude was white.

[pellius]

How come no seems to care that despite the substantial head start the White cop was able to out run and catch up to a fleeing Black man.

I've never heard of this happening before.
