New Jersey Cop Shoots Unarmed Teen Seven Times as Gun Mysteriously Appears on Scene Following Day
On Friday evening, a New Jersey State Trooper fired 10 rounds of gunfire at a 14-year-old boy, seven of which hit the child.
Now, witnesses, including one who works in law enforcement, are questioning the official story.
Police shot the young teen, Radazz Hearns, in the legs and buttocks around 10:20 p.m. during a short foot chase. Cops were on the scene responding to a report of gunfire in the area.
The department claimed that a weapon was found at the scene of the incident, but did not specify if the child actually had possession of the gun at any time. What is even stranger, is that no weapon was found at the scene Friday evening, only mysteriously appearing in the middle of the street near an intersection the following day.

(17,064 posts)1. Should be easy enough...
To determine if the teen's fingerprints are on the gun. If no fingerprints, then the cops planted evidence...which on the surface appears to be the case. Cops lying or falsifying evidence should receive jail time equal to the crime they are alleging was committed.

They confiscate cell phones with video on them and they ARE NEVER released to the public.
and you expect them the release test results like finger prints on a weapon found the NEXT DAY
Seriously .....

but I am. However, it is good to see that at least one person in law enforcement is questioning it.

The child is wounded, but in stable condition and expected to survive. After he was shot, witnesses say he yelled out, Why they have to shoot me?
