Police Arrest Man Who Posted Video of Alton Sterling’s Death

The man who was instrumental to making the first released recording of the Alton Sterling shooting go viral was arrested less than 24 hours later on charges of “assault and battery,” a move that he says was an act of police retaliation,

The very next day, while trying to get through a security checkpoint to go to his job as an aerospace ground equipment technician at Dobbins Air Reserve Base, LeDay was surrounded and detained by ten military police officers, some of whom carried M-16 rifles.

The military officers allegedly told him that he was wanted for assault and battery before hauling him to a back room where he was handcuffed and leg-shackled. He was then taken to Dekalb County Jail by local Dunwoody police.

When he arrived, the warrant for his arrest mentioned nothing about an assault and battery charge.

“It was just over some traffic tickets from a couple of years ago,” LeDay said. “They said my license was suspended.”

LeDay wound up being forced to spend 26 hours in a jail cell, only being released after paying $1,231 in traffic fines. He admitted to not paying the tickets and allowing his license to be suspended, because he did not have the money at the time and no longer drives.

Police have been safer under Obama administration than every president in 35 years

Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) tweeted, “Obama’s words & [Black Lives Matter]’s deeds have gotten cops killed.”

Rep. Steve King (R-IA) claimed the shooting had “roots” in the “anti-white/cop events illuminated by Obama.”

But according to an analysis by the Chicago Tribune, blaming Obama or Black Live Matter activists, who began protesting shootings by police following the death of Michael Brown, isn’t supported by any of the data available.

In fact, their claims are outright false. , OF COURSE, they're Repugs.

The Officers Down Memorial Page paints a different picture than conservatives would have the public believe.

The site tracks law enforcement officers murdered in the line of duty in real time and shows an average of 101 police officers deliberately killed each year under the Reagan administration.

Under George H.W. Bush that number fell to 90, to 81 under Clinton and 72 deaths per year under George W. Bush.

As for the Obama administration, that number has continued to drop. The average number of police murdered during his presidency has fallen to an average 62 deaths each year through 2015. Looking at projections for 2016, that number stays the same.

There are so few officers being killed intentionally that just the Dallas shootings skew the data showing a 44 percent increase. Without the murders this week, the year-over-year rise would only have been 17 percent.

This isn’t about better medical care and quicker response time either. Under Obama’s administration, assaults on police officers have dropped as well.

The FBI reports that in 1988, the final year of the Reagan administration, police had 15.9 assaults per every 100 law enforcement officers.

However, at the end of the Clinton administration in 2000, that number dropped to 12.7 assaults for every 100 officers. Under the Bush administration, it fell again 11.3.

The trend has continued under Obama’s administration.

The most recent data from the FBI shows that in 2014 it decreased to 9.0.

‘No Field Test is Fail Safe’: Meet the Chemist Behind Houston’s Police Drug Kits

Decades after L.J. Scott developed a test for cocaine, his invention played a role in hundreds of wrongful convictions in Houston.

... so how many 100s of years of false imprisonment?

Will the courts release the wrongfully convicted?

Apparently, they really really hate to release the falsely convicted.

If released, will the courts remove the arrest, conviction, jail time from their records so the "ex-cons" can get apartments, public assistance, jobs?

baton rouge cops arrested the store owner of the convenience store alton sterling was murdered in front of. this has been a trend with cops. they arrest and make trumped up charges against witnesses of their killings as a intimidation tactic. they did the same thing to the man who recorded the eric garner murder. i believe they gave him 4 years in prison.

Alton Sterling Witness: Cops Took My Phone, My Surveillance Video, Locked Me Up
I told them I would like to be in the store when [they took it],” Muflahi told The Daily Beast, adding that he also demanded they get a warrant for the seizure of his private property.

Officers didn’t even file an application for a search warrant, The Daily Beast found last week. Nor did Muflahi sign a “Voluntary Consent to Search Form” with the Baton Rouge police.

After taking away Muhlafi’s cellphone — and the damning video on it — Lt. Robert Cook and Officer Timothy Ballard locked the him in the back of a police car for the next four hours, the lawsuit claims. The only time Muhlafi was let out was when he had to use the restroom.

“The officers would not allow Mr. Muflahi to use the restroom inside of his business establishment and he was escorted to the side of his building and forced to relieve himself right there within arm distance of a BPRD officer and in full view of the public,” the lawsuit states.

During the four hours inside a cop car and another two hours at police headquarters, Muhlafi was allegedly prevented from making a phone call to his family or an attorney.

Muhlafi is suing Salamoni, Lake, Cook, and Ballard as well as the City of Baton Rouge and police chief Carl Dabadi. The lawsuit seeks damages for “false arrest, false imprisonment, the illegal taking and seizing of his security system, illegally commandeering his business,” attorney Joel Porter told The Daily Beast on Monday.

surveillance footage contradicts off duty cop and "witnesses" claim in the case of delrawn small, who was shot and killed after a road rage accident.



In the early hours of Monday, July 4, an off-duty New York City Police officer shot and killed a black man.

In a week full of national stories about killer cops and cop killers, this one barely registered. The shooting was a “road-rage incident,” one police source told the New York Post. Wayne Isaacs “feared for his life” as Delrawn “Smalls” Dempsey pummeled him in the face, these sources said. Unreleased footage showed Smalls “punching the ” out of Isaacs as the off-duty cop, a three-year veteran of the NYPD who’d just changed out of his uniform after finishing a 4-to-midnight shift, sat in his car, these sources said. “After he was struck in the face and head numerous times, Isaacs, fearing for his life, pulled out his weapon and fired three times.” ..


Besides, the police chorus noted, Smalls was a guy with a long rap sheet and three stints in jail. One whose own girlfriend told police after he was shot that he’d been drinking, had a hot temper and that she couldn’t restrain him when he went to attack the man in the other car.

But Friday, the Post published the black-and-white surveillance video the sources had alluded to, and it showed something very different: Smalls approaching Isaacs’s car on foot, then a movement—ducking his head and ing his shoulder—as he nears Dempsey’s window. A second after that, he falls to the ground.

Even before the video was posted, Smalls’s girlfriend, Zaquanna Albert, who was in the car with him just before the shooting, along with the couple’s infant son and one of her teenage daughters, gave a very different description of the events from what police sources had voiced on her behalf:

“I’m so upset about this 4 lives taken by the police department in a few days and I express my deepest sympathy to the other families and I’m trying hard real frigging hard to be strong for him but he knew I was a crybaby,” she wrote in a Thursday Facebook post, which featured Smalls’s picture among those of other black men recently killed by police. “THE pain is a unexplainable. # justice ‪#‎standup‬#fatherlesssons ‪#‎UNEXCEPTABLE‬”

The investigation into the shooting is being run by New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who one year after Eric Garner was killed in New York was named special prosecutor to oversee cases of police-involved civilian deaths.

“At the end of the day, if the attorney general decides he used poor judgement in shooting here, that’s fine, but he didn’t get out of his car and shoot this guy,” a police department official said. “Finally, it’s about (Isaac’s) perspective: what was he thinking at the time and did he have reason to fear.”

But one New York law-enforcement official who didn’t want to be further identified weighing in on another office’s investigation said that the video doesn’t look good for Isaacs.



“The point is it’s almost instantaneous, it in no way appears to be life-or-death. The officer just doesn’t seem to be justified in his reaction,” the official said. “Again there’s no car in front of him as far as you can see so it’s not like he can’t roll up the window and drive so yeah it doesn’t look good.”

Police Chief Says There Just A Few Bad, Deeply Ingrained Prejudices Giving All Cops A Bad Name

BENSON, AR — In response to widespread criticism of law enforcement officers following several high-profile police encounters in recent weeks that resulted in the shooting deaths of black men, Benson police chief Lewis Marsh sought to assure the public Monday by explaining that there are just a few bad, deeply ingrained prejudices out there giving all cops a bad name.

“The fact is, among the thousands of brave law enforcement personnel working to keep us safe, there are only a few longstanding and deep-rooted biases that are ruining the reputations of all officers,” said Marsh, who emphasized that citizens should not rush to condemn the nation’s police forces simply because of the presence of one or two narrow and entrenched opinions about minorities that inform the way policing is often carried out.

“The characters of officers across the country have been tarnished by a small handful of terrible preconceptions that are capable of dictating their actions, and that’s not fair. A couple harmful, pervasive beliefs should not define the men and women who serve us.”

Marsh added that the police officers involved in the recent shootings had simply done what they thought was necessary given the information and biased inclinations they had at the time.

North Carolina keeps public from seeing police camera videos

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory has signed a

bill excluding police video recordings from being scrutinized as public records

despite opposition from civil liberties groups, which say it will deepen divides in communities already reeling from the killings by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota.

McCrory on Monday signed the state's first law detailing who can view and obtain footage from body cameras and dashboard cameras.

The law says the footage is neither public record nor a personnel record.

It allows the video's subject or their representative to ask to view recordings.

A law enforcement agency could withhold access for reasons such as a continued investigation or safety concerns.

A requester can go to court if an agency denies the request.

You'll probably have to hire lawyer, pay several $100s, go to court, etc, etc. A huge barrier for victims, as intended.

The militarized, hyper-equipped police state, like BigCorp, has all the information secreted away, has all the power.

Citizens just pay the police state salaries, pensions, $100Ms in settlements.

Stopped 52 times by police: Was it racial profiling?

When Philando Castile saw the flashing lights in his rearview mirror the night he got shot, it wasn't unusual. He had been pulled over at least 52 times in recent years in and around the Twin Cities and given citations for minor offenses including speeding, driving without a muffler and not wearing a seat belt.

He was assessed at least $6,588 in fines and fees, although more than half of the total 86 violations were dismissed, court records show.

Was Castile an especially bad driver or just unlucky? Or was he targeted by officers who single out black motorists like him for such stops, as several of his family members have alleged?

The answer may never be known, but Castile's stop for a broken tail light Wednesday ended with him fatally shot by a suburban St. Paul police officer, and Castile's girlfriend livestreaming the chilling aftermath.
