The Chicago Police have just released the "witness testimony" of the cops who were present at the McDonald shooting.
The phrase "one lies and the others swear to it" springs to mind.

I assume we've all seen the tape by now. If further evidence were needed about the unreliability of "witness testimony" I don't know what it would be.
But I'm sure the jesus freaks think otherwise because...at the end of the day...they are bullshit artists too.

Quote:The documents reportedly state that at least five officers, including Officer Jason Van Dyke, said that 17-year-old McDonald approached officers while armed with a knife, even though the videotape of the October 2014 shooting showed McDonald veering away from officers before he was shot 16 times. At least one of the officers said in the report that the black teen advanced on the officers and swung his knife at them in an "aggressive, exaggerated manner" before he was shot and killed.
Officers also claimed that McDonald tried to lift himself off the ground with the knife even after being shot repeatedly by Van Dyke, the Chicago police officer who was charged last month with the murder of the teenager.
