Chicago police officer plans to sue the man he shot and killed - http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/chicago-police-officer-plans-to-sue-the-man-he-shot-and-killed-a6842741.html
The officer who killed 19-year-old Quintonio LeGrier said the teenager assaulted him and caused emotional distress
The Chicago police officer who shot and killed a 19-year-old is planning to sue his victim as he said the teenager assaulted him and caused emotional distress.
Officer Robert Rialto shot Mr LeGrier seven times because he alleged the teenager swung a bat at him. Officer Rialto also accidentally shot a neighbor, Bettie Jones, in the chest and killed her.
Bill Foutris, the LeGrier family’s lawyer, told CBS Chicago that the Officer’s suit is a “desperate attempt” to divert attention from the fact that Mr Rialto shot Mr LeGrier four times in the back without just cause.
Mr LeGrier was killed just after Christmas. He called 911 before he was killed but the phone operator ignored his pleas and hung up on him.
**According to ThinkProgress, it is not uncommon for officers to charge victims with assault - a tactic known as “cover charge”. In 2013 the police charged an unarmed man with assault when they missed their target - him - and shot two women standing nearby in Times Square instead.
Superintendant Garry McCarthy has been fired and pressure on police accountability is growing.
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel released Mr McCathy’s text messages on Tuesday from the week of Mr LeGrier’s shooting, which show more concern about the media reaction than the victim or police failures.
The police has also been accused of trying to destroy misconduct records and tampering with dashcam recordings, presumably to hide any evidence of wrongdoing.

Rahm is great

Officer Robert Rialmo — who has been on the force for three years — responded to a series of domestic disturbance calls the morning of Dec. 26 at the home of Antonio and Quintonio LeGrier, who are father and son. Quintonio LeGrier, 19, had called the police three times saying someone was threatening his life. After ignoring the first two calls because Quintonio LeGrier would not give more details, dispatchers sent Rialmo on a “well-being check,” the Chicago Tribune reported.
**It did not go well. When Rialmo arrived at the home, Quintonio LeGrier allegedly came outside with a baseball bat. Police said the teen had been threatening his father, who also called the police that morning. *Regardless, Rialmo shot the teen six times — twice in the back — then shot the LeGriers’ 55-year-old neighbor, Bettie Jones, in the chest by “accident” when she came to her door to see what was happening.
Both Jones and Quintonio LeGrier died on the scene.***
At least he blapped the nosey neighbour.
Missing footage from Burger King camera and dashcam destruction. All just one big coincidence…

Too many fucking people with zero people skills, you are in uniform. Use your words. Assess the situation. Do everything to not escalate the situation.
Its hilarious cause say you hear somebody take a beating next door, you call the police then they show up and kill you cause they cant aim for shit.

Here are some more…
She referred to the dash-camera that captured the arrest as the “eye of justice.”
“He was grabbed out thrown to the ground and struck 16 times in the head by the defendant,” Evans said. “Mr. Dent was struck, kicked and Tased while he was on the ground by a group” of officers who appeared to celebrate and bump fists afterwards.

There, two police officers accused Booker of using two phony $10 bills to pay a delivery driver for a cheesesteak and pizza that Booker insisted he never ordered.
During the ensuing back-and-forth, Booker claims, the officers forced their way into his house, handcuffed him, and threatened to haul him off to jail.
But they eventually left, after realizing that Booker hadn’t ordered any food or dished out any counterfeit bills. Internal Affairs is investigating the incident, and Booker is vowing to sue the Police Department.

Pre-crime and Minority Report in 3…2…
Starting off black history month on a positive note. Officers pulled this man over for a suspended license, and then proceeded to beat the shit out of him. Cop got 13 months to 10 years. Police chief resigned, and 2 other cops were suspended. Dent had charges dropped, and awarded 1.4 million in a civil suit.
One of the officers, who isnt a paid officer, but an auxillary police officer, John Zieleniewski had his text messages aired out in court…
"At least give me the satisfaction of knowing you were out there beating up n ***s right now," said a text sent to Zieleniewski earlier this year. It was read aloud in court.
“LOL,” Zieleniewski said in his text response. “Just got done with one.”**
Zieleniewski is still an auxillary police officer, but mendez is gone.

**Dont buy that hype of a few bad apples. They out there in droves. Videos are in the links. **
Missed this story
Cops sees a persons car door open in their own driveway, stops, thinking to alert them of a possible crime. Woman opens door, dog runs out, and cop shoots it 3 times dead. Video is in the link
No officer should be allowed on your property because theyre making up shit in their head of a possible crime. Really, an open car door in someones own driveway is suspicious?
Always look through the peep hole before opening your door
If no peep hole, or even if there is, ask who it is, and what they want.
I tell my girl about this all the time, and she kind gets the point now, but i will literally yell at her like a child to not open that fucking door to anyone unless you know who it is. I’ll go open the door, and you hold the dog, because she gets excited and thinks everyone is her friend.
I would go on a rampage if this happened to my dog. So sad. Interestingly enough, it was a black cop, and black families dog.
Americas finest. Even more interesting is i think only one black person was involved in all those gifs. Just goes to show, while there is racial bias, these cops out here are just ready to get it in period. Old, dog, some guy burning trash in his back yard, some guy trying to get out of a car he just got in an accident with.
I had to google that cop shooting the drunk driver who was getting out of the car wreck.
A California cop who shot a man who had stuck his head out of a car that had rolled over will not be prosecuted, a district attorney announced Thursday. Paradise police officer Patrick Feaster told investigators he never meant to shoot Andrew Thomas,...
***According to Ramsey, several factors led investigators to believe the shooting was accidental. “The dash cam video shows Officer Feaster was not prepared for and was surprised by the guns firing. The pistol discharges in mid-stride and the officer both flinches his head to the right and does a stutter step indicative of an officer not prepared for nor intentionally firing his pistol. ***Additionally, officers normally train to fire a minimum of two shots. There was no second shot and the officer immediately holstered his weapon after the discharge.”
In a media release, Ramsey said “His (Officer Feaster’s) reaction on the dash cam video and his statements to protocol investigators confirm an honest belief that he did not intentionally fire his pistol.
But despite his claim that the shooting was accidental, Feaster never mentioned to the responding paramedics and officers that he had shot Thomas until more than ten minutes after their arrival.”
WUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTT
He casually walked up, saw the guy trying to get out of the wreck, popped him twice, put his gun away like it was nothing to murder someone, and didnt even tell the paramedics he shot someone.

Canada isn’t perfect, but at least black people are safer here. All these corrupt cop stories got me heated.

DA Won’t File Charges In Death Of Handcuffed Man Shot In Cop Car - http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/da-charges-handcuffed-man-police-car-shooting_us_56b8f75de4b08069c7a8548b ?
The death was ruled a suicide even when the autopsy report contradicted the police’s press release. The autopsy concluded that the man was shot in the chest and not the back.
