[[so why was the judge so lenient on him?]]

Because he wasnt a white cop who held down a violent black man while the perp was dying of a massive drug overdose, with a perfectly, egal and effective hold,approved for,use on violent perps, while simultaneously trying to gain control of an increasingly violent street situation, while awaiting the ambulance that had been called to arrive on the scene to treat the overdose.
