Family files wrongful death lawsuit after Florida deputy shoots college student five times & cops withhold bodycam video
Family files wrongful death lawsuit after Florida deputy shoots college student five times & cops withhold bodycam video
Isaiah Winkley had gotten stuck in the mud near a church in Hancock County and went looking for help when sheriff’s deputies were called to the scene, the lawsuit says. He never made it home.
What good are body cameras if they can just never show the footage? This killing is outrageous and at the same time so damned commonplace.
I take it you're aware of the Miranda warning which notifies a person of their first amendment right? Well there's a bit in there that's implied that I don't think the general public really knows:
"Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law" but what they don't say is it will never be used in your defense. If they can avoid giving video during discovery they won't, in many states they're not even public.
What the fuck is wrong with America.
Pretty much everything you can imagine.
So far.
That’s not what happened.
Chase Blackwell was a sheriffs deputy in Hancock county, Mississippi. He murdered a Florida college student outside of a home in Perkinston, Mississippi.
They have not released the body cam footage to anyone and Chase Blackwell resigned from the Hancock County Sheriffs department for “some personal issues within the office”
