Two Massachusetts cops forcibly entered a home, slapping a woman and trying to swipe a camera out of a man’s hands in a chaotic incident in which the man ended up dialing 911.
A risky move that could have easily escalated the armed home invasion.
It is not clear at this moment why the cops were at the home, but they can be heard later in the video saying they were not planning on arresting anybody. But one cop still remained standing in the doorway, his foot planted in the doorway, preventing the woman from closing the door.

The Free State Project, which came across the video on Facebook today, said they have reached
out to the Wareham Police Department for answers, only to receive no comment. In the opening of the video, the man, identified by the Free State Project as Richard Phillips, announces to the cops that he is recording to comply with state law, which prompted officer George Chandler to smile and wave.
But then officer Jon Verhaegen entered and tried to snatch the camera.

However, as stringent as the Massachusetts wiretapping law is in not allowing citizens to secretly
records cops, even if they have no expectation of privacy, the Glik vs Boston decision stated that one only has to make the camera visible.

New York City police officers killed a man Thursday after he had broken up a fight between two other men, insisting on placing him in a chokehold and slamming his head to the pavement, piling on top of him as he gasped for air and as he continually told the cops he couldn’t breathe.

The entire incident was caught on video from a witness who kept telling the cops that the man had not committed a crime.

But evidently, the cops suspected him of selling untaxed cigarettes, which apparently is a very serious crime in New York City.

Ferguson police officer shoots, kills teen; community outraged

Ferguson police officer shoots, kills teen; community outraged

Not sure how many deals are public yet, not sure what led up to this but apparently the police officer started to get out of his car, black kid with bad record pushes cop back into car and goes for cops gun. So black kid just assaulted an officer, fails to get gun and runs. Cop shoots kid and kills him.

Now all the black people are protesting and saying its another "Trayvon Martin" case and cops are racist :unknw:

Who came up with that bright idea :no:

Well here's the other witness that was walking with brown, and another witness that allegedly see the shooting.

From what I've read and heard there's not much dispute that the two started an altercation with the police officer around the cop's car.

It's unclear if they tried to get the gun, when the shooting started, and how the shooting stopped.

I don't care what happened before, by if his hands were up and he was walking away the cop should be tried for murder. If he fired in the kid, face down, in the ground, he should be tried for murder.

I dunno if any of those statements are true or bullshit, but you know if you or I did it, regardless of what happened before, our trial would be the middle of a media circus right now.

I'm all for shooting someone when you need to, and I think it's important to protect that right, but cops shouldn't get away with killing someone they didn't have to while the rest of us would go to jail for it.

The disinformation has begun. So has the Looting.

 

[Candyman]

Won't bother guessing the race that looted.

It is a sad state when they use the good cause to make it a wrong.

I can not remember the article I read on this case, but there was apparently a bullet that hit somewhere inside the cop car while the struggle for gun happened. I would assume the FBI will be looking into the car and verifying this part of the claim. I think it is an important piece of the story.

I think it is terrible that people would loot in protest. They simply do not realize that it is their fellow citizens that suffer, not those who they feel have wrongly caused a death.

Welcome to the board Jessica, nice rack :biggrin2:.

 

[Chunky]

I feel there's more to the story and Jessica where are you from??

 

[Jessica Rain]

Thanks for the warm welcome gentlemen. I don't want to derail this thread, so I will quickly say I will be posting my information in the next couple of weeks. I am just getting myself started into this industry.

Cops shoot another one.

Ezell Ford, a 25-year-old black man described by his family as having “mental problems,” was shot and killed by a Los Angeles, California police officer Monday evening, barely 48 hours after an unarmed black man in Missouri suffered the same fate.

The Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement on Tuesday that officers had conducted an “investigative stop” the night prior, during which the suspect — later identified as Ford — reportedly engaged in an altercation with the cops, according to the LAPD.

“During the stop a struggle ensued, which resulted in an officer-involved-shooting,” the LAPD said in Tuesday’s statement. “The suspect was transported to a local hospital and after lifesaving efforts he succumbed to his injuries.”

According to the victim’s family, Ford was complying with officers at the time of the shooting, and was killed while facedown before the police. USA Today reported that Ford was unarmed.
“They laid him out and for whatever reason, they shot him in the back, knowing mentally, he has complications,” an unnamed man who identified himself as the victim’s cousin told local station KTLA News. “Every officer in this area, from the Newton Division, knows that — that this child has mental problems,” he said. “The excessive force … there was no purpose for it. The multiple shootings in the back while he’s laying down? No.”

According to the cousin, the victim’s mother was met with police brandishing nightsticks when she arrived on the scene.
“Then when the mom comes, they don’t try to console her … they pull the billy clubs out,” he said.
“My heart is so heavy,” the mother, Tritobia Ford, told KTLA News. “My son was a good kid. He didn’t deserve to die the way he did.”
“All we want to know is why they did it,” Ezell Ford Sr. added.

KTLA reported that police were initially behaving “tight-lipped” with regards to disclosing further details, because of a “gathering” at the scene in the wake of the shooting. On Sunday, an event advertised as being a “protest against the murder” of Ford is scheduled to occur outside of LAPD headquarters in downtown Los Angeles.

Ford’s death occurred barely 48 hours after police in the small town of Ferguson, Missouri opened fire and killed Michael Brown, a black teenager who was reportedly unarmed at the time of the incident. Massive protests — and at times, violent ones — have occurred in the days since, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation has since opened up a probe into the incident.
In California, the LAPD said that a thorough investigation will be conducted internally, then reviewed by the chief of police, the Office of the Inspector General and Board of Police Commissioners.

Additionally, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Justice System Integrity Division will conduct a comprehensive investigation of its own, the LAPD reported.
The Homicide Report, an online database maintained by the Los Angeles Times, suggests that at least 303 people have died as a result of officer-involved shootings in the area since 2007. Meanwhile, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck was appointed on Tuesday this week to his second, five-year stint at the helm of that agency.

The decision to keep Beck in charge of one of the nation’s largest police forces was made just one day after the LAPD’s civilian watchdog told the Los Angeles Times that he’d be launching aninvestigation into the accuracy of the agency’s crime statistics after a report by the paper revealed that that police in LA misclassified nearly 1,200 violent crimes as minor offenses during a one-year span ending in September 2013.
