Yeah, the Garner case. The city settled the wrongful death case for $5.9M and the officer was fired. However, the first cause of death was actually listed as the chokehold by the ME: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Eric_Garner

Why wasn’t the officer who applied the choke hold put on trial? If he is a murderer why was he only fired?
