This undated autopsy diagram provided by the Cook County Medical Examiner's office shows the location of wounds on the body of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald who was shot by a Chicago Police officer 16 times in 2014. A judge on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2015 ordered the city to release squad car dashcam video of the shooting. The officer has been stripped of his police powers, but remains at work on desk duty.

He's still a hero, how many crimes and illegitimate children has he prevented by killing this black, no way should he be punished for it.

The video evidence must be pretty damn conclusive for the cop to be charged with murder.

Some people definitely abuse power. It's a shame that the taxpaying are the ones who suffer on every end of the spectrum. Nobody wins with police brutality.

Clearly the police need larger magazines.

Why don't we send those cops to Syria instead of allowing open season on American citizens?

16 times? How is that possible? Did he shoot while he was laying or the ground?
