John and Ken quoted unnamed witnesses that said they saw at least one officer holding the man's head and smashing it hard on the concrete, and multiple officers beating him about the head with flashlights.
They also kept beating him after he was plainly unconscious and unresponsive, according to witnesses.

I just hope the DA handles this right. I would also like to know more about the alleged intimidation of witnesses by the police union.

They need to turn this thing upside down and inside out and get the whole truth.

I guess cops weren’t in much mood to be videotaped.

I want justice for that family and for Americans, too. We are not in America any more if thug police men exist like this and dare to murder a man in front of all those witnesses. How brazen!

Funny you should mention the unions. That is a very corrupting club that pits police officers’ interests and loyality to one another against the interests of the rule of law and loyality to our citizens. The union leaders are criminals running a protection ring for brutal and criminal cops. Public unions should be illegal. Enough of this crap!
