I follow these stories. Most times cops are exonerated, or at least not found criminally culpable as they should be. Such as this one which I have followed since 2005.

google this kids name to get the full awful story.
Very unfortunate incident but the thing that catches my eye is the 40 witnesses testifying in front of a grand jury. We don’t know what they hear....we’re not privy to what goes on behind closed doors. I’m not taking the officer’s side in this but I wasn’t on that grand jury. It looks really bad on the officers involved though.....I’ll give you that. My heart goes out to that young man’s family.....:(
