DwayneEMTP Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 It seems like the preceeding police dialog alone should be all of the evidence necessary to show that the victim should have expected to be prepared to defend himself. Is such a statement not assault when it comes from law enforcement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFIB Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Everything about this case is wrong except that the policeman is going to be tried by jury. Even the charges are wrong. He should be charged with murder in the first degree. He had intent and he deviously created the opportunity to beat that poor man to death. I think one of the sickest and most damning things about this incident is when he puts on the latex gloves in preparation for his cowardly assault on Mr. Tomas. That really gives me the chills. Putting on gloves is an act that we as medical professionals do automatically, even without any conscious thought. We put on our gloves in preparation to show kindness, to ease pain and alleviate anxiety. We put on our gloves to heal others without incurring in harm ourselves. When that animal in uniform, puts on the gloves, the same gloves we use to heal, with the full intention of causing bloody harm, but with the presence of mind to protect himself from the same blood he intended to savagely spill, I see his motives and intentions are clear. That simple act of putting on his gloves, to do harm, makes me absolutely sick. I hope they, including his defense and anyone who supports them, abundantly get everything they deserve. In this life or the next. Edited January 31, 2013 by DFIB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DwayneEMTP Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Man, I'm so happy to see that some of the police officers are actually suffering for this...Not enough of them, in my opinion, but at least some... Thanks for the updates Brother...I let this fall off of my radar, but I'd love to see how it turns out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Plain Ruff Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 is anyone surprised at the not guilty verdict? And here comes the civil trial. This will be a completely different story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
