Well the body camera definitely shows a different story.

Gravy will cry because that is what Gravy does.

He loves to reach so hard that his arm comes out of socket.

But hey, that’s how is makes a living. Gotta stir the pot and be a dumb shite to pay the bills.

Actually, I just looked on his FB page; he’s already moved the goalposts. Now he’s whinging because they had the kid on the ground at all.

The video clearly shows a 17-year-old lying face down in the street while a Baton Rouge police officer restrains him with a knee following a police chase. The episode occurred last Monday.

Police Chief Murphy Paul said the photograph he released indicates the officer's knee was on the suspect's upper back, which is a technique Baton Rouge officers are trained to use for restraint purposes under some circumstances.

The teenager's family and their attorneys spoke with the media following a meeting with BRPD leaders that lasted over an hour Monday evening.

Broome said the video "certainly causes concern" but suggested that viewing a more complete account of what happened would be essential to determining how the case is resolved.

"As I understand it, there is lengthy video of the entire incident. I have not seen that," she said. "It's important to see the entire video. Then we can assess what happened and where we're going from there."

I haven’t seen anything but that one still shot and don’t know any of the details other than he ran for 40 minutes while his friends filmed out of the window. I did see a post that the kid was now posting pictures to his social media of himself in a neck brace. That family is looking for a payout. Plain and simple.

I guess the only question now is why was use of force necessary?

What was the kid doing in the first place? I'm sure he was on his way to the liberry and was accosted for no reason.

How the hell are police supposed to subdue someone who resists or wont comply. Soon, the MO will be to flee because the police won't be allowed to touch a perpetrator.

This kid could have been raping someone and it seems there are those that are more worried about the manner in which this TPOS was apprehended.




Amazing. Truly is.
