Is this the guy the cops beat the cr** out of in front of a big crowd?

My comment from the first thread about this. I hate it when I’m right about such things.

“My youngest brother has Down’s syndrome so I know what I am stating - these cops are murderers and they are trying to cover their arses because of their monumental screw-up. Of course, since they are cops and likely UNION cops in a deep blue state, they will face ABSOLUTELY no punishment for their crime.”

Why would we expect anything less from socialists?

Disgusting...just disgusting. There isn’t an ounce of brains or humanityin any one from the employee that sic’d the thugs on the kid to the thugs themselves. Why the f#ck didn’t they chip in between hem and BUY him another ticket? Oh yeah...cuz these kinds of thugs are exactly what tyrants want staffing their LE departments.

Saylor, 20, died Jan. 12 after the deputies, moonlighting as Westview Promenade mall security officers, tried to remove him from a Regal Cinemas Westview Stadium 16 auditorium at the management's request. His caretaker had gone outside to get the car after a screening of "Zero Dark Thirty," and Saylor had returned to a theater seat, his family's lawyers say. Saylor ended up handcuffed on the floor after he became "verbally and physically resistant" to the deputies.

Smith stressed that the grand jury had acted in an investigative function, meaning it did not rely solely on the investigative file from the sheriff's office. The panel heard from all 17 eyewitnesses, including the 18-year-old caretaker, and the three deputies, he said.

He said none of the deputies hit or kicked Saylor, or used any force to his neck or head. The only police equipment used was three sets of handcuffs, linked together to accommodate Saylor's girth, Smith said.

He said Saylor was on his stomach for one to two minutes. When he showed signs of medical distress, the deputies immediately removed the handcuffs, called for an ambulance and began cardiopulmonary resuscitation, Smith said.

And, why, pray tell, didn't the caretaker TELL the theater that he was getting the car and coming back for the man? Is it normal to have an 18 year old caretaker? Did he just expect to walk back in without buying a ticket?

If I only read the WaPo's version, I would probably think the deputies/security guards were totally at fault but when Smith (the prosecutor by the way) explains it, not quite the way the WaPo made it sound.
