I pray the standard would be more accountability for cops in America.... not JUST giving money to families who's children have been murdered by profiling LEOs

I would want my son, who started reading at age 3 because he liked it... and justice... not millions of dollars....

Officer Haste shot Mr. Graham, 18, in the bathroom of Mr. Graham’s family’s home in the Wakefield section after chasing him inside from the street.

A criminal case against Officer Haste collapsed in August 2013 when a Bronx grand jury chose not to indict him. An earlier case in which he had been indicted on manslaughter charges related to the shooting was dismissed by a judge on a technicality.

One thing that could help is a EA assigning outside investigators and persecutors in cases like this... reducing the conflict of interest between local PAs and the LEOs.

Furgeson has NOTHING on this case... the cop after chasing the kid broke down the door of a relatives house then ran in the house busted open the door of a bathroom and shot the kid who he THOUGHT was buying some weed... and ... Like Wilson... said he was going towards his waistband (aka, the I can kill at will excuse)
