(73,715 posts)I really have no idea. It would seem to me that, if there is no indictment at all, that the DA would have had to have worked hard to protect the cop.
I think there is a fair chance that any indictment will be for something less than murder.
I hope that the cop is indicted for murder.
It's a strange and ugly time in America.

(36,063 posts)I can't see any other outcome.
I would like an open 2-sided evaluation of evidence and its interpreted meaning.
I have no real expectation that will happen, but I hope it does.

(297 posts)If it weren't for the publicity, it would have been nolle prossed.
Which is what usually happens in such cases.
The publicity is what is unusual, not the "incident".

(1,033 posts)No way there is an indictment of any kind. The fix was in on this thing from the beginning. Tons of folks in this country will celebrate the news with a big helping of klu klux klam chowder.

(2,286 posts)this country simply does not indict cops involved in the questionable shootings of people of color no matter how smelly the circumstances.
