Officer Cairnes, a relative rookie of two years, arrested the longshoreman on South Street. ...Robert Hollis, 28, an Irish-born father of four, had slugged Officer Cairnes and run. The officer, 40, also Irish-born and a father of six, gave chase, pulling his pistol and firing into the crowd until, catching up to his fugitive, he fired a fatal shot into the man's back...
...a coroner's jury... ruled the shooting "not justifiable" and ordered Officer Cairnes held for a grand jury. ...the same day a grand jury declined to indict him.

Retired NYPD Sgt. Raymond Moore was among the hundreds of officers standing at attention outside Jamaica Hospital after Moore’s valiant two-day struggle to survive being shot in the face by a violent ex-con ended in tragedy.
Moore was just 25, and his death plunged the NYPD into mourning.

Can there be any question that 'indago' honestly hates cops?
Note how almost every day...that member cuts & pastes everything, but has no mental capacity to
actually use his own words? HATRED DOES THAT!
By the way. Just for info purposes. Like the cutting/pasting. INDAGO is the name of a DRONE.
How ironic is that?

During the urban crime epidemic of the 1970s and ’80s and the sharp decline in crime that began in the 1990s, the unions representing police officers in many cities enjoyed a nearly unassailable political position. Their opposition could cripple political candidates and kill police-reform proposals in gestation.
But amid a rash of high-profile encounters involving allegations of police overreach in New York, Baltimore, Cleveland, Ferguson, Mo., and North Charleston, S.C., the political context in which the police unions have enjoyed a privileged position is rapidly changing. And the unions are struggling to adapt.
“There was a time in this country when elected officials — legislators, chief executives — were willing to contextualize what police do,” said Eugene O’Donnell, a former New York City police officer and prosecutor who now teaches at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. “And that time is mostly gone.”

In Torres Case even though the family won a civil case the police that killed the man are still on the job. Apparently the only discipline was a few days paid leave.Albuquerque police shot a homeless man in the back and killed him, and it was all caught on gruesome detail in a police video.
It is just one more in a long line of police killings that has the city's Police Department on the verge of federal oversight. James Boyd, a mentally disturbed man who friends say was attempting to camp out in the foothills above Albuquerque one night in March because city homeless shelters had closed, was holding two small camping knives. Officers negotiated with him for five hours, eventually winning agreement from Boyd to leave the makeshift -- and illegal -- campsite. Then a police stun grenade went off, Boyd, 38, turned his back and three shots were fired. Police video shows Boyd on his stomach on the ground, wheezing for breath as officers sic a dog on his legs and fire bean bag rounds at him. He was already mortally wounded. An autopsy on Boyd found he was shot in the back. The medical examiner ruled the death a homicide. The horrific encounter, routinely recorded as part of police protocol, is now a key part of an ongoing drama in New Mexico's largest city -- a series of protests against the police and city officials. Federal officials are close to a deal that would have them supervising the Albuquerque Police Department....

....
The officers had come to the home of Christopher Torres on an arrest warrant issued the month before. They said he was armed and shot him in the back as they wrestled on the ground.
Torres' parents, Stephen and Renatta Torres, say he was holding a broomstick, which he laid down when police approached. They sued police, and a judge awarded them $6 million in a civil judgment, saying the police testimony was "not credible."
The Albuquerque district attorney, Kari Brandenburg, cleared the two officers in the Torres killing. She has cleared every other police officer involved in a killing during her last 13 years in office...

...<cite class="el-editorial-source">Albuquerque, New Mexico (CNN)</cite>Two Albuquerque, New Mexico, police officers will face first-degree murder charges in last year's shooting of a homeless man in the hills above the city, a prosecutor announced Monday.Keith Sandy and Dominique Perez were ordered to appear at a preliminary hearing, the date of which has not yet been set, said District Attorney Kari Brandenburg of New Mexico's Second Judicial Circuit.
Sandy and Perez are accused of killing James Boyd in March. The 38-year-old homeless man spent the night before his shooting in a shelter, but when the shelter closed for the winter, Boyd tried to camp in the hills above the city, officials said.
Overnight camping in the hills is illegal....

You couldn't PAY me to be a cop in this town. ABQ is where all the 1960's, bleeding heart leftwinger hippy rejects moved to. Quite a shock this left wing Hell hole is next door to Texas.
No thanks. You can have the job and the box of Kleenex you have to carry around for anyone you arrest.

Brooke Baldwin speaks with rapper Michael "Killer Mike" Render & Officer Tommy Norman of the North Little Rock Police about the role of cops in communities.
North Little Rock police officer goes national
Quote:
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) – A North Little Rock police officer is getting international exposure thanks to his unconventional approach to law enforcement.
Officer Tommy Norman, known for connecting with inner city youth through social media pictures and videos, was interviewed on CNN Wednesday. CNN learned about Officer Norman's story from Atlanta based rapper Killer Mike who found Norman's Instagram account and began watching the videos.
"It's still surreal in a way that North Little Rock was on CNN," Norman told THV11 Wednesday. "If you're going to go visit a neighborhood, visit a group of kids, you've got to do it day in and day out."
Norman's social media accounts show hundreds of pictures and videos of him visiting with children in the North Little Rock community. "He's always out in the community and I love that about him," said Barbara Johnson. "I met officer Norman 14 years ago off of 16th and Sycamore. I was having problems out of one of my children, and he came in and kind of talked to them and guided them and ever since then he's kind of been in my life."
Now Norman plays a similar role with Johnson's grandchildren, an example of the consistency he says is key in building trust with the community. "I think sometimes they do a double take," Norman added. "They're not really sure if this police officer is being genuine. Why is he being so nice? But as I said on CNN, can a police officer have love? Can a police officer have compassion? And can a police officer care? The answer is yes."

How about asshole high on crack kills neighbors and posts on internet bulletin board? How about the NYC cop that was murdered? Two days and he's no longer in the news. But Lord don't let one shoot a nigger in ther performance of his job.
And I can't stand cops, but you whiners about people doing their job are too much.

For decades, they had waited for an apology. This group of black men, some now graying and bent by age, had complained of violent abuse at the hands of the police in the 1970s and ’80s on this city’s South Side. They said they had been suffocated with plastic bags, beaten with phone books, shocked with cattle prods — torture tactics meant to extract confessions to crimes. On Wednesday, after years of investigation, public debate and litigation, the City of Chicago expressed remorse. City Council members voted without dissent to pay $5.5 million in reparations to victims of torture and abuse by a group of officers known as the “Midnight Crew” and overseen by a notorious police commander, Jon Burge.

And that settlement should come right out of the police budget as a reminder of what happens when the police abuse the citizens.

Obviously, there is nothing anyone here has to say to the member who identifies as INDAGO.
Whenever any of us happen to discuss RACISM, RACE, or RACISTS.
Seems to me. INDAGO is the complete representative of the source of those words.
HATRED like indago's only serves to destroy the hater. SEND FLOWERS, (DEAD FLOWERS) to indago's funeral.
