Cop In The Tony Robinson Shooting Walks!

The cop's excuse for killing an unarmed man is the fact he was high on the "shrooms". The cop who killed Tony Robinson walks and the family gets no closure.

Cue Fred 101.....

He and many of our friends on the racist right will automatically assume that because Tony was on drugs, had a few run-ins with law enforcement and the cop used "proper" judgement, he deserved to die.

The Dane County state prosecutor stated that the officer who shot and killed Tony Robinson acted in self-defense and is not going to be charged.

Madison cop Matt Kenny shot and killed unarmed Tony Robinson in March.

As usual the cops release a statement to why they used deadly force on the suspect. Robinson who did have a share of minor run ins got taken to the cleaners by the racist right.

After all a few minor misdemeanors is like him robbing a bank and taking hostages.
Tony Robinson's death touched the nation.
The Huffington Post reports Kenny shot the 19-year-old inside an apartment near the Wisconsin state Capitol on March 6. Police said the officer was responding to calls that the biracial teen was running in and out of traffic, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. According to Dane County district attorney Ismael Ozanne, Kenny said Robinson struck him on the side of his head and knocked him into the wall. Police also said they later received reports alleging that Robinson had assaulted two other people.

No charges for Matt Kenny, officer who shot Tony.
Ozanne said that marijuana, Xanax and psychedelic mushrooms were found in Robinson's system.

Shortly after the district attorney’s announcement, the Wisconsin Department of Justice released its report, which similarly suggested that Robinson’s allegedly erratic behavior could be explained by the use of ‘shrooms.

Robinson's death sparked protests in Madison, and hundreds of people attended his funeral in mid-March.

On Tuesday, Chris Ahmuty, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Wisconsin, criticized the decision not to file charges as leaving a "cloud of uncertainty" over the circumstances of and responsibility for Robinson's death.

"If Officer Kenny did not violate the law, then is anyone legally responsible for Mr. Robinson's death?" Ahmuty said in a statement. "Does the criminal law protect individuals like Mr. Robinson from deadly force exercised by police officers? Are police officers above the law?"

Ahmuty also called for greater transparency from the police. "Furthermore, what will the Madison Police Department do to ensure that Madison police officers stop killing unarmed individuals, when they have killed three people in the past 11 months? The MPD needs to find ways to hold officers accountable, so that they will know there will be consequences for their actions," he said.

Okay, where's that jackass Milwaukee sheriff David Clark?

I bet you money the sheriff has something to say about Tony Robinson. I bet Clark will call him a "no good punk" and the Black community needs to shut the "well you know" up.

Another sad day in America.

Where's the body cameras?
