Kelly Thomas.

There is a 31 minute video of him being beaten and tazed repeatedly by 6 officers.

He was in a comma for 5 days.

He died.

He did absolutely NOTHING and the video proved this beyond a shadow of a doubt.

It showed one of the officers putting on latex gloves.

He asked Kelly Thomas "Do you see my fists".

"They are getting ready to FUCK YOU UP."

Kelly Thomas was a schizophrenic.

Kelly Thomas was sitting on the curb, and replied "Start punching".

He was beaten in the face with the taser gun.

The jury found all the officers NOT GUILTY.

Just Google Kelly Thomas and the photos and video are on the first page.

You're looking at Kelly Thomas' face. Police say he "resisted." They beat him mercilessly. He died. JJChambers Feb 2014 #9
