Too bad nothing will be done about it.
paper is patient
This show ain’t over, yet. You got a crystal ball?
No but I’ve got several decades of unchecked police criminality and brutality that paint a pretty clear picture of how this will go.
“The answer is not to defund the police. It’s to fund the police.” -Biden
“died after guards held him down and he stopped breathing”
Fucks sake AP, what’s with the passive voice here? Was he holding his fucking breath??
It’s unfortunate but usually wording like that is intentional and necessary, I.E if you say “mother fuckers murdered him” you’ll get sued.
A couple caveats
-
this only applies if you’re a trusted news source - musk or trump could say this tomorrow and would win the case because they’re known liars. The implication here is that anyone that can legally get away with saying shit any other way is either a small potato, known liar or if its irrefutable truth.

I think in this case, specifically, they could probably say he was murdered by somebody because they already said homocide in the title
I’m not saying they’re correct in not calling it that, or that the system necessarily works that way, but they’ll have lawyers to look over everything in these sorts of scenarios and they’ll, usually, ask to play it safe.
Also, re point 2, it’s different to say “autopsy says it’s homicide” vs the paper/journalist saying that they were murdered. Unless it’s legally ruled as such (judge/court case), the news agency could be liable if they said it themselves. The headline is essentially just quoting someone else.

Mmm, I smell money. Capitalism is the problem.
Lot of grey area this side of libel, especially for active v passive voice.
The other one is when an underage suspect is a person of color you get “17 year old man” rather than “17 year old minor/child/student/driver/suspected victim of police brutality” etc…
As did Epstein.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the 55-year-old father of four was attempting suicide and the staff tried to save him.
…save him…
for themselves
Guaranteed they’re lying. They’re just trying to act like it doesn’t matter that they murdered him because he was trying to kill himself anyway.
There is a WITNESS to his murder, who was mentioned in earlier articles. This needs to mean something.
“I’ll do it! I’m gonna jump!”
Let me save you by giving you a slight push.
Wow, so they strangle people to death now, too. Great.
Its a waste of manpower honestly. Maybe some sort of gas would be more efficient than individual stranglings.
Tap for spoiler
Please dont tell me this needs the sarcasm tag
Maybe some kind of laser like in War of the Worlds. Bzzzzrrrreooong
And those braindead maga fucks cheer it on. “Well he shouldn’t have been illegal!” “He should’ve never come here in the first place!”
As if any of those excuses justify fucking murder.
They’re fine to execute civilians because they disobey them.
Judge, jury and executioner.
No other country in the world would accept this.

Making Death Camps Great Again.Land of the free, home of the brave.
I’m just waiting for a Grok generated video of another detainee doing it.
ms dog annihilator noem, will ssay he was a violent immigrant.
Died of asphyxiation. grrr. There’s a heap of justice waiting to land on somebody. Several somebodies.
Ice out here murdering people in their concentration camps-
New York court records show Lunas Campos was convicted in 2003 of sexual contact with a person under 11, a felony for which he was sentenced to one year in jail and placed on the state’s sex offender registry.
Actually I’ll take a pass, I’ll get upset at the next one
Everyone deserves due process no matter how heinous they are. If someone is denied due process, no one has due process.
Except for the Nazi ringleaders, I’m perfectly ok with denying them due process
Congrats, Trump has just designated you a Nazi ringleader, now you don’t get due process. You say it isn’t true, but how do you prove it if you aren’t given due process? See how this is always fucking stupid? Everyone gets due process or nobody does.
And how is that different than what’s happening right now? They’ve already decided that anyone who’s trans or anti capitalist is a.“terrorist”
Except that “Trump designating anyone as anything” really shouldn’t mean shit if we still had a nation that had laws. Why the fuck are we talking about due process?
Except for the Nazi ringleaders, I’m perfectly ok with denying them due process
Sadly even Nazi ringleaders, otherwise Republicans will simply label those protesting ICE as “Nazi ringleaders” to deny them due process. I’m a big fan of the due process that Nazi’s received in Nuremberg and the outcome of those trial against those assholes.
Nuremberg barely did anything to them sadly. They all fled to Argentina and the US
This is the exact shit they want. They probably chose to murder this dude specifically for exactly this reason.
Don’t fall for it.
speaking as someone who was raped as a child, you don’t get to tell me shit. It’s illegal, and I want the officers held responsible, BUT, I don’t care about child rapists getting murdered. Couldn’t care less, actually. Hope it happens to all of them.
