The community reply to that was there is no death sentence for dealing drugs. That's fine, but, that wasn't my first reaction. My first reaction was that the DOJ was attempting to cool the situation down. Up to that point there were very valid questions as to why a sting operation for a single gun and was that actually a crime in Oklahoma? By releasing the criminal record of Mr. Harris, it was made more obvious there was some substance to idea of capturing Mr. Harris.
That release of information was still nonspecific as to whether drug violations were current issues with the police regarding Mr. Harris. Actually, it raises more questions than it answers. Why such an elaborate sting operation if there was a current summons for his arrest? If there was no current summons for drug charges, why the sting operation at all.
By this article of April 25th there are far more problems to confront with the Tulsa Oklahoma police department.
I haven't seen much about the African American community in Tulsa and their reaction to Mr. Harris' death. However, it is easy for me to make the observation of oppression within southern communities whereby if minorities speak out it will lead to punitive policing of those that spoke out. I believe strongly minority communities are targets of oppression as well as the "Poor White Trash."
North Carolina is another example of deep government corruption while seeking to jail those that protest. So, if Mr. Harris has to stand alone, then outside vigilance has to be part of the understanding of communities that practice such oppression and special treatment for wealthy benefactors country wide.
Tulsa knows it has been caught in a corruption scandal and abuse of authority which is why they are being as transparent as possible along with the DOJ investigation. They don't want to go to jail. Wouldn't that be interesting, huh? I am sure they would meet some friends.

..."New information (click here) has been submitted to this office regarding actions in the Sheriff's Office that are worthy of further investigation beyond the scope of the manslaughter case," a statement from Tulsa County District Attorney Stephen Kunzweiler's office said Friday, according to NBC News.
"I am highly concerned about recent allegations that
have surfaced and I have been in contact with independent law
enforcement agencies regarding further investigation into these
matters," Kunzweiler said in the statement.
