A Wayne County Circuit Court judge has rejected a motion to dismiss a case against a Detroit police officer accused of fatally shooting a 7-year-old girl during a raid that was recorded for a reality TV show.

I actually couldn't get in cause it was packed solid, and Judge Gray was by no means fool enough to ignore the implications here, especially in a city which has been teetering on the brink of outright war with their own police department for well over a year, not when something like this could be the spark that sets off the powder keg, nope.

They dragged their feet on this, hoping it would fade away, that people would forget, but that ain't gonna happen, we won't let it.

While in this perversely jackboot licking political climate I still don't hold out much hope for actual justice, it's still at least a little something to not let this garbage go unchallenged.

Cause they got caught on TV. If you're stupid enough to kill a 7 year old on TV, they figure you deserve the Darwin Cop Award.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


Or is it just crazy civvies & cops with feathers?

Nah.

She probably had a pop-tart she'd chewed into the shape of a gun, so the cop was justified in shooting her. Right?
