I first saw this on "Politics Nation" and I had to try to understand why there is such widespread brutality. It is the reports they hand in. The written reports are not truthful.
When Mr. Wilson killed Michael Brown, Jr. he never put one word to paper. The report was written by a supervisor who never witnessed what occurred.
The death of Mr. Scott, here again, was not filed by the officer who killed him, but the supervisor. So, basically, police know they can get away with murder, quite literally, as peers cover for them. In the case of Mr. Scott, the responding police officer arrivee on the scene as the crime was being covered up by placing the taser next to Mr. Scott. That second officer on the scene never once stated the scene was being managed to cover up a murder.
He wrote the extent he went to revive Mr. Scott. That wasn't honest either. The actual people that attempted to revive Mr. Scott arrived after the second officer arrived. Mr. Scott's wellness had deteriorated too far to be revived by then.
We need police and sheriffs and deputy sheriffs to carry body cams. It will stem the brutality and hopefully will end the deaths by police officers. These are unarmed people being either beaten within an inch of their lives or shot to death. The law enforcement officers at the local level would be required to file truthful reports.
I am getting the picture that any written police report about any type of injury or death of a suspect is a blatant lie. I have to wonder how many stories are 'out there' in the USA as never told or recorded and suppressed by fear of receiving the same type of treatment by law enforcement officers.
We have a problem. How does it come out of the file cabinets to reveal the injustice in this country?
I guarantee you the deputies in this "You Tube" video knew they would blame the injuries on the suspect and the paper work would reflect a very different picture which would provide a better basis for prosecutors.They never acknowledged the helicopter. They were focused on the suspect and the beating more than a helicopter.
In the shooting death of James Boyd, the swat team put the video on the internet themselves. No one was spying on anyone. There was no helicopter. Those that killed him believed they were above the law.
In the case of James Boyd, some of the local laws actually propagated the assault. There was no reason for his death. But, the homeless were considered an illegal status. They were barred from places like the park where he died. Albuquerque itself, or so it was stated, had a bonus for the law enforcement officer that reported a 'clean kill.'
The USA has a huge cultural divide. How many local governments provide cover for officers actions? How many have laws that actually are unconstitutional and deny rights to citizens. In Ferguson, the judge was part of the plan. He was regularly denying citizens their civil rights.
Ferguson was a town of Middle Class folks near St. Louis. I find it hard to believe the problems in Ferguson wasn't known by anyone outside Ferguson.
I think there are cities and towns with extremist members running their own little world in the way they see fit.
We have problems and they aren't minor.
