apparently its a practice for cops to decide to inflict the death penalty for some 'offenses';
Arlington, TX — O’Shae Terry and his friend were stopped last
September by Arlington police officer Julie Herlihy because the
temporary tag on Terry’s vehicle had expired. Officer Bau Tran would
also respond to the stop, and ten minutes later, he would shoot and kill
Terry. For killing Terry, Tran was indicted this week on a charge of
criminally negligent homicide.
“The Grand Jury’s decision, irrespective of the outcome, is viewed as
an additional factual piece of information to consider by those
responsible for the administrative investigation of this incident,”
Arlington police said in a news release after the indictment. “We
anticipate that the outcome of the administrative investigation will be
concluded within the next few weeks.”
The incident happened on September 1, 2018 in broad daylight. Terry
hadn’t gotten in his new license plate yet, so he was targeted for
revenue collection by officer Herlihy. When officer Tran showed up,
however, he smelled marijuana and a stop for a ticket turned into a
search for a plant.
As the Star-Telegram reports, “about 10 minutes into the stop, Terry
started to roll up his windows. Tran grabbed the top of the passenger
side window with his left hand, ordered Terry to stop, stepped onto the
foot rail, put his right arm inside the vehicle and then brought it back
out to reach for his gun, the video shows.”
Instead of simply stepping off the vehicle—knowing he had all of
Terry’s information and could’ve followed up with him later—officer Tran
pulled out his gun, stuck it into the vehicle and started shooting
Terry.
The car had moved forward for just one second before Tran began firing the first of at least four shots.
Naturally, the attorney provided by the police union for Tran thinks
this is a travesty of justice and the cop should’ve been able to murder
Terry with impunity.
“Obviously we’re disappointed that he was indicted,” said attorney
Randy Moore. “Things happened pretty quickly and once the driver made
the decision to roll up the window and drive away, then that limited the
options that the officer had.”...........https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/cop-indicted-after-video-shows-him-kill-unarmed-man-over-stop-for-expired-vehicle-sticker/246094
