You can't be held in jail indefinitely....You need to be charged within 72 hours if you're arrested. There are some rare cases where that isn't the case but that usually involves enemy combatants.

that's one of the major reasons why they don't get arrested within 72 hours, because they're not ready to charge within 72-144 hours.

because Jarome on a wendy's surveillance camera doesnt have a badge number on his shirt or a CO u can call to find in the log who was at X place at Y time.

my friend in highschool robbed a donut from the gas station with his hood up, but he had his football sweat shirt on with his name/# on the back. he was taken down town the next day by the liaison officer.

Right and that's fine. In this case, the DA felt that the evidence was strong enough to make the arrest so I don't see what the issue is. If a civilian had done this, they would have been arrested long before a cop. Now, you could argue that he's being treated differently than other cops but that's kind of the point, isn't it? People clearly want cops to be more accountable.

it helps if you know a crime was even committed first.
That preliminary ME report saying it does not support homicide by asphyxiation or strangulation while saying being restrained was 'likely' one of three combined factors with heart issues and possibly drugs- that's something you couldn't even get past a grand jury, and they indict ham sandwiches. If they waited for the ME report and it came back and declared it was their professional finding that being restrained played a role, that would be one thing. Instead its one speculatory statement with one exculpatory statement.

Curfew announced by mayor Frey, from 8 PM to 6 AM on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

What's the punishment for breaking curfew?

he had a knee on his neck. like idk what to even say. its not an approved restraint for the very reason that it can lead to death far too easily on someone because they have issues you dont know about. obesity, asthma, etc.

this guy could have been high af, and he has a heart condition, but wouldnt have died 5-25-2020 without a knee on his neck. i dont get how its not the cops fault lol.

Lock him up
That will teach him to improperly restrain someone

Now he gets to restrain cock sandwiches in the pin

what's the punishment for burning down a liquor store?



well that's why you have a medical examiner determine whether putting his knee on the guy's neck is a causal factor in the death.
You could potentially make a case for excessive force, battery or even depriving civil rights- but to say its murder you need to say that {action} led to {death}
They need to establish that without that knee to his neck, he wouldn't have died. But we don't even know that bare minimum. For all we know, the guy swallowed a bag of drugs when he saw the cops coming and died of an overdose that would have happened no matter what they did. Is that likely? Nope. Is there any evidence to support it? Nope. But its the kind of thing we'd know for sure when the ME report is in. Instead they rushed to charge simply to appease a mob, and justice blinded by a mob's fury is no justice at all
