Anyone in B.R. hearing what is happening with this case? It's been very quiet for the past 6 months.

Is something getting ready to come down?

If so should people start avoiding that whole area above Cortana Mall?

Autopsy will show Sterling shot himself in the leg with a gun he had in his pocket.

I know that for a fact.

A guy I work with has a friend on the local FBI task force. His words are "There's a reason why it's taking so long. Resources have to be in place for when it's announced." I know, I know - sauces.

I head from a reliable person that it is very unlikely that anything will ultimately happen to the cops. He said that based on what he knows of the case the cops did exactly as the police academy trains them. The fact he had a gun, was fighting them, and they could not get control of the weapon for an escalating period of time, they train the officers to kill the person. This person is worried about how the new mayor will react on an acquittal and put their lives in danger.

Thanks for the info on this. It was taking a while and given the current climate, I'm wondering if a no bill comes in what will happen in the area. I'm guessing things will be a bit tense.

Well, we don't have Obama's DOJ acting as counsel for the plantiff anymore. As soon as i heard that the bigoted little munchkin Loretta Lynch ordered the toxicology report to be sealed, that told me all I needed to know.

It's absolutely embarrassing that a segment of the Baton Rouge population will automatically riot as soon as something doesn't go their way, despite a full investigation done by a department VERY friendly to their bullshite "cause."

Nobody has said "Well, since the cops did exactly as they were taught and they were within their legal rights to do what they did, it should be a pretty easy announcement."

Nope. It's "Well, the cops did as they were trained and it was a good shot, now the ghetto trash and bleeding heart white guilt liberals are going to go riot and throw shite at cops because they didn't get their way."

That's fricking sad.

I've heard this second-hand from people in the know as well.

been hearing the same thing about him shooting himself in the leg also. It will be an interesting twist of events if that is the case.

No it won't. They will tell that the cops framed it. They put gloves on, planted the gun, used sterlings finger to pull the trigger post mortem.
