72 hours. smh
72 hours.
Cops killed 1,114 people in 2020. Other than Breonna Taylor, the list of investigations into the deaths of 1,113 people, by the Federal Government, is said to be incomplete and not available to the public at this time. Which in legal speak means: We don't care. If there's backlash we might bother. Otherwise, we've got better things to do. If we do bother? The cop feared for his life, the video was too blurry, and we don't care.

USA has been murdering thousands of people most years since 1776 and millions per the years in my Vietnam invasion...MyLai was "investigated" but not the weapons profiteers that forced USA to invade 1959
Not to do so would further undermine the system and leave open the authorities to still accusations of hypocrisy.
It is a no win situation where strict adherence to the regulations is the only acceptable course of action.
I didn't read the story but it sounds like a routine investigation for any Fed Officer involved in a shooting. Certainly a fatal one. Doesn't mean anything if the Officer feared for their life and it sounds like this one had such reason.
@SeaGreenEyez Capitol Police are Federal Officers. Local PD's aren't. Please keep up. I'm rather aware, and often comment sympathetically upon, the shootings of blacks and the investigations which follow. Are the local PD investigations on the up and up? Police Unions protect the Officers so I'd say yes but the victim's family loses. Not so much with a Fed investigation.
Sedition and insurrection and now they are going to prosecute a cop for doing his job? Insanity.
I know!!! I Had this thought yesterday evening, I had not heard about the inquery but had read an article about who she was. My thoughts were "I can't wait to see how the trump supporters spin this one". and, LO here we are. Lots of angry emoji faces.
The white rioter in the insurrection got what she deserved when she continued to attack even after the cop drew his gun and appeared to also warn that he was going to shoot, but she kept trying to get in the chamber. I call BS on any claim of excessive force. If anything, the cops should have begun shooting live bullets as soon as the mob started breaking the barriers. We all know damn well they would have had it been BLM protesters. Of course, in that case, the law enforcement would have also been there in overwhelming numbers...
Again 100% true assessment Tom ....thankyou for your cool head in a sea of fake news
