After shooting Brooks, Rolfe said "I got him" and kicked Brooks, and Brosnan then stood on Brooks' shoulder, Howard said. The officers did not provide medical aid to Brooks for over two minutes after shooting him, Howard said.

One of Rolfe's gunshots also hit an occupied vehicle nearby in the Wendy's lot, endangering the passengers inside.

Brosnan has agreed to be a state's witness, Howard said.

I think the failure to provide medical aid, if that is the case, is pretty damning.

Why is it that its the Republicans who have all the best anti-Trump commercials:

Because when Democrats put the hammer on him like that the GOP will holler, the media will tut tut and moderate Democrats will whine how we should be better than them.

Absolutely.

Have they caught the arsonists, yet, btw? Anyone know?

Yeah. That’s why the second cop rolled.

The DA wrapped this case in a bow.

Evidence - videos video videos
Testimony - fellows whose car caught around. Witnesses (plural) plus THE SECOND COP.

Thin Blue Line is fraying.

kiidcarter8 claims to be unconvinced by the Black man charging the white police officer for murder after he shot a Black man in the back two times.

We will have the rest of this shocking story at the top of the hour.

On a completely different subject, my kid’s photo is in the Times!

It’s not a hopeful story about but that’s Bear Bellinger in the driver’s seat.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/17/us/politics/bolton-book-trump-impeached.html

Mr. Bolton describes several episodes where the president expressed willingness to halt criminal investigations “to, in effect, give personal favors to dictators he liked,” citing cases involving major firms in China and Turkey. “The pattern looked like obstruction of justice as a way of life, which we couldn’t accept,” Mr. Bolton writes, adding that he reported his concerns to Attorney General William P. Barr.

...who then did what with those reported criminal concerns?

When my son was little,  we sometimes called him Bear,  because his name means bear in Welsh and there was this bear vibe in the way he explored and got into things.   Anyway, great pic,  thanks for sharing.
