Another Police Murder

Its strange as at no point anyone said what the cause of death was, no autopsy report or anything?

Shirley that has to be known before blame can be apportioned.

It's an inquest so they're not looking for who to blame, but the cause and circumstances of the death.

I guess the poor guy had a heart attack, and that being pepper sprayed, chased down the street, knocked to the ground with batons then stood on by 4 officers didn't contribute in any way.

And the excess of cocaine and alcohol had nothing to do with it?

Maybe he needed more cocaine and alcohol, so as to become invincible, like aussiepong.

Aren't the police supposed to protect the vulnerable, not stamp on them.

EDIT: I'm appalled that you appear to be making an excuse for this.

In the photo you can quite clearly see he is wearing a 'hoodie' so he must be guilty of something

And Im appauled that you are acting as judge, jury and executioner in a case where not all the facts are yet know unless you know something more than is being reported, trial my media it seems

You miss the point

If he was pepper sprayed in the cell and IF 4 coppers chased him down the street and IF they battered him with truncheons and IF they all stamped on him
then it's another police murder.

do you disagree ?
