UC shooting grand jury coming back now

[SteelerInLebanon]

Not sure how many have heard about this one but it does not look good. Say a prayer it stays calm as my daughter is on campus right now for a summer nursing bridge program. They have locked them in their dorms but they have swat and armored vehicles right outside their dorm as we speak. Apparently the video will not be good when released today.

This is the first I've heard about it. According to this article it sounds like the same old scenario of assaulting an officer instead of complying. He'd still be alive if he had listened.

Apparently the video from the officer is not going to show the officer in a good light. Press conference is at one I am staying close enough to get her if it gets ugly.

Indicted on murder charges. Prosecutor says the cop was wrong and worst he has scene.

Did they release the video?

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Yes. News pulled away before the shooting but it is described as a senseless shooting. Going for a life sentence.

Crappy thing is the prosecutor put down the whole UC police force as not Cops when they are full officers and stated the university should just use Cincinnati police. Problem is they would have to hire 93 full time officers to replace UC's department. I don't see that happening and that would make me want to pull my daughter out of UC.

Damn is right.

Trigger happy cop shoots as soon as the guy started the car, then lied about it saying he was dragged. I guess he forgot he was wearing that body camera. This is why the PBO is fighting body cameras so hard. They don't subscribe to the code of blue silence.

the campus police is a joke, it always has been. I would gladly support the UC force becoming an official district of the municipal CPD.

But then who foots the bill UC or Cincinnati. I don't want to see them lose the manpower they have just added around UC. Ono has made a priority of trying to upgrade the size and quality of the force. Considering the reputation around campus that is important. I had no desire for my daughter to go there until we actually visited and saw the strides UC is or was trying to make to insure saftey for their students. One bad apple does not mean they are all bad. This just as easily could have happened anywhere. Despite what Deters said CPD cops do not want to be the ones patrolling the frat party crowd and just busting drunk students. I think most of them would rather UC maintain their own force and patrol anround the campus area. They just need to better delineate what they should and should not be patrolling for. This was a piss poor reason for a stop and probably should have just been called in to CPD and let them handle it if not just ignoring it.
