Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - btfc - 08-04-2023 ‘ White ex-officers in Mississippi plead guilty to racist assault on 2 Black men during raid ‘ ‘ Six former Mississippi police officers, including some calling themselves “The Goon Squad,” pleaded guilty Thursday to a racist assault on two Black men that ended with an officer shooting one man in the mouth. The officers, who are all white, entered a house without a warrant on Jan. 24, assaulting the men with a sex toy and using stun guns and other objects to abuse them over a roughly 90-minute period, court documents show. After one victim was shot and wounded in a “mock execution” that went awry, documents say the officers conspired to plant and tamper with evidence instead of providing medical aid. ‘ https://apnews.com/article/rankin-mississippi-deputies-civil-rights-brutality-2c2154e67cc6cd3b9a28cb16686f2a5c Re: Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - Carnos Jax - 08-04-2023 And they wonder why the black lives matter movement exists.... Re: Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - Speedy - 08-04-2023 I wonder where this case would be if they hadn’t shot one of the victims in the mouth? The article did mention security cameras so maybe that’s why they all pleaded guilty. Re: Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - RgrF - 08-04-2023 It is Mississippi so thanks to the publicity they now have a leg up for whichever elected office they decide they want. Re: Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - Spock - 08-04-2023 Meanwhile in Louisiana a white trooper was acquitted of violating the civil rights of a black man that he was recorded beating. The racist south in all its disgusting bigotry. Re: Just the good ol' boys, Never meanin' no harm... - Lemon Drop - 08-04-2023 That article was horrific to read. The victims are very brave to speak publicly about the torture they endured. These officers are going to have a very bad time in prison, and I'll be surprised if they survive long in there. Again, we rely on the DOJ civil rights division to make sure these things are prosecuted at the level they must be. Thank God for them. We absolutely cannot have another President who jokes about police brutality and who promotes racism. |
