Quote from friend of mine at MPD: "3o years in Law Enforcement and its one of the worst videos I've seen: It will make Rodney King beating look like he got a foot massage".

Video was supposed to be released today. TBI on the case as well as DOJ. RUMINT is murder (not manslaughter) for ALL 5 officers who high-fived and didn't render aid. EMTs also on the hot seat. Delay of releasing tape until 23 JAN 23 because of TN ARNG being mobilized and/or operations to calm down community when tape is released.

I have a bad feeling about this one.

I care. It was five out of control cops dishing out curbside justice and they expected to get away with it.

That they got fired is to me a surprise.

What happened to Officer Friendly days? Something is wrong with training. This is not okay.

I was replying to post #2 who was stating that no one cares, since it wasn’t white cops on a black guy.
I was, sarcastically, stating that I want to riot and get free stuff.
Implying there wouldn’t be rioting because whitey isn’t responsible.

Could you try not to use so many obscure acronyms in your post? The only one I got was DOJ.

Sorry. Maybe if the victim didn’t FAFO with the LEO, they could do some CYA IOT not make the MFIC fire them RFN. Too bad the perp was DRT close to my AO.
