    I've seen this video plastered all over the Internet the past day or so. I haven't seen anything on CF. Is it recent?

    I believe it was from late May, early June if it is the one that was caught on a security camera at some business. My friend in IA was working this case in June.

    Every one of the cops who attacked that kid should be behind bars. Period.

    I know that most of the officers were fired and some suspended. From what I know the victim's injuries (or lack thereof) weren't enough to warrant a felony charge/conviction.

    In other words, if you're going to beat someone, make sure you stop just in time. (not sure if a smilie is appropriate).

    Shame that they didn't get sentenced for aggravated assault (like all of the rest of us would have).

    I wonder how they measure injuries for a case like this - seems odd, but a particularly durable person could suffer a **** ton of pain and his attackers could get off with a light penalty simply because the victim didn't get his skull crushed.

    I got your mom right here with me complaining about the black teachers

    anyway, this video was leaked to the press. during the trial, the police department didn't want it leaked, and afterwards as well.

    edit: police department as well as mayor, she was pissed

    Those black teachers were out of line. Just showing how racism can go both ways, homey.

    Where did I say I was outraged? I think they were wrong for what they did but it has become too typical where suspected criminals are treated like this, sadly. Thanks for ASSuming though.

    Yeah, I noticed that too. He didn't bring up anybody except the most, for lack of a better word, prominent black posters and I don't think anybody even brought up race at all until he tried to sneak it in there with that. Oh well, maybe it is typical of him.
