the main cop is going down no matter what. People will convict to stop a riot. The only way he possibly gets off is if they show evidence of some grand conspiracy where he rats out some bigger name people who ordered him to kill the guy. He’d likely get the Epstein treatment if there’s even a grain of something like that.
for me, I don’t care if he had a heart attack later and that is technically what killed him. You choked a guy out for like 8 minutes. Even if he didn’t technically kill him right there, he damn sure tried.
I do think the others could be found not guilty because they seem to be overcharged. They simply didn’t act. It seems like some kind of negligence to me. I’m no lawyer and don’t know all the possible charges but murder seems to me like they would have to have actively done something to kill him and not just stand back. Also, I think they did call an ambulance. It seems to me if they simply testify that they knew an ambulance was on the way and didn’t realize the prisoner was in so much distress, then they will likely get off.
But that's just it... are we a country of laws or not. If he died of something other than what the cop did to him then charging the cop with murder is unlawful. People should be charged with what actually happened. Which is why I don't like prison justice. Everyone wants the guy killed in prison... but another guy who probably killed someone. Why should prisoners get to hand out justice? Why should a serial killer get to kill a guy who only kill one person?
