San Jose Cops Sued For Blocking Medical Help

A 16-year-old boy who was being driven to a hospital by friends after he was shot at a San Jose party died because police officers stopped the vehicle and then failed to provide medical help, the boy's father said in a federal civil rights lawsuit filed Thursday.

So much more convenient when they don't have to shoot them themselves. Saves a lot of messy paperwork....or so they thought.

Not the cops this time....but the courts.

NEW YORK (AP) — An Ivy League-educated ex-portfolio manager convicted of enabling his firm to earn more than a quarter-billion dollars through insider trading on a promising Alzheimer's drug trial was sentenced Monday to nine years in prison by a judge who said the "staggering" fraud deserved lengthy incarceration.

Ok - I guess 9 years is someone's idea of a "lengthy incarceration."

But....

Gaffney man sentenced to 17 years for robbing convenience store

Tate brandished the rifle and threatened the clerk while Guyton took a bag full of money that was sitting on the counter, the release states.

The article does not say how much was in the bag....but my hunch is that it was a metric fuck-ton less than a quarter of a billion.

Cops...those pillars of society.

California officer pleads no contest to beating woman with baseball bat while off duty

Hmmm....

“To his credit, he admitted guilt early,” Grove was quoted as saying. “Hopefully, he can get on with the rest of his life.”

I wonder if the prosecutor ever said that about some regular citizen who plead guilty to assault? Somehow, I doubt it.

Man who called 911 in Ohio Walmart shooting changes his story after viewing video

Attorney Michael Wright, who watched a five-minute excerpt of the video with Crawford’s father, has urged Ohio’s attorney general to publicly release the video and other evidence.

Attorney General Mike DeWine has so far refused, saying it would be “playing with dynamite” to do so prior to a grand jury hearing scheduled for Sept. 22.

However, Ritchie claims he was shown the video by officials in the attorney general’s bureau of criminal investigation – and Wright said he intends to file a complaint with DeWine.

“That is very improper,” Wright said, arguing that Ritchie’s statement should be based only on his own recollections.

“(DeWine) said he was concerned that the release of the video would adversely color the perception of the witnesses, thereby making their testimony less accurate,” Wright said.

So the Attorney General won't release the tape to the public because he was 'concerned' about coloring the testimony of witnesses and then shows it to his star witness who then changes his story? This is sounding more and more like a police murder and cover up.

There must be very little crime in this town....maybe they should lay off some of these fucking cops and save some money.

Let me guess: the local parish priest offered to "counsel this young man in private."

Many questions but the cops seem to offer few answers.

Cops fatally shoot Utah man carrying a sword, but they won’t say why

I guess we have to wait for the autopsy to find out how many times he was shot in the back?

Witnesses say Quebec City police trying to pull over a bicyclist for going the wrong way down a one-way street ended up hitting him with their car instead, but what allegedly happened next is even worse: People on the street say cops ran the 48-year-old man over again, then pinned him to the ground to finish their arrest as he lay bleeding and dying, the Toronto Sun reports via Gawker.

I wonder if the local yokels will convict the guy.

California police use taser on deaf man trying to communicate with them via sign language

Officers Jeffrey Salmon, Jeffrey Tysl, Erica Bristow, and Mark Hultgren allegedly ordered Meister to stop loading the boxes into his car, but Meister could not hear the order. One of the officers then grabbed Meister by the hand, who responded by attempting to use American Sign Language to communicate with the officer.

The officers interpreted his sudden movements as resistance, so they “struck Meister with fists and feet, and forcibly took him to the ground.” Once he was on the ground, one of the officers allegedly shot him twice with a taser. Another officer then delivered a “drive stun” to Meister’s abdomen.
