Who's on trial? Is it the suspect or the victims? |
What angers me more than everything is the fact that some on social media actually justify the criminal acts done by law enforcement?
We are going to see more Rodney Hintons.
White extremists seriously believe that the police looking for criminals have justification to commit traffic offenses. They claim that the victims should have adhere to the police vehicle regardless.
No one is seeing that a vehicle traveling over 100 mph can travel two football fields in less than 20 seconds.
A Warren, Michigan officer is facing vehicular manslaughter after killing two men when he was driving his patrol vehicle at an excess over 100 mph.
The junk food media is following the trial of James Burke. The former officer is trying to justify his crime by pointing out that the victims were allegedly drinking and driving.
The driver Cedric Hayden Jr., 34 and his passenger Dejuan Pettis, 33 turned into the path of Burke. Before the collision, Burke was well over 100 mph.
Relatives and supporters of the men shook their heads when Sheriff's Deputy Joseph Bosek testified on Monday, June 23, about the speeds the police-owned Ford Explorer was traveling before and when it collided with a Dodge Durango the men were riding in.

Former Warren police officer is trying to use a loophole to escape vehicular manslaughter charges. |
Burke, 29 is charged with two counts of homicide-manslaughter with a motor vehicle, a felony, and two misdemeanor charges, a moving violation causing serious impairment of bodily function and public officer−willful neglect of duty in the Sept. 30 crash. Burke was terminated by Warren police after he was criminally charged, his attorney, Marc Curtis, said after the hearing.
The sheriff's office indicated the police's oncoming SUV slammed into the Durango as it turned left from Schoenherr Road onto Prospect Avenue about 5 a.m. Fieger Law — the firm representing the men's families — released what it indicated were three new videos taken prior to and during the violent collision between the two vehicles.
Burke's 34-year-old partner was hurt in the crash, but has not faced any charges.
Burke said little during the exam except to answer "Yes," your honor" to questions Chmura posed to him.
The sheriff's office previously indicated the Warren officers were responding to a Flock camera hit on a stolen, black Jeep Cherokee out of Sterling Heights that was traveling southbound on Schoenherr at 10 Mile. There allegedly were two stolen firearms in the Cherokee, the sheriff's office spokesperson previously said. She previously said there was no "pursuit," but the officers were responding to a be-on-the-lookout.
The victims were not suspects.
The defense is going to use the driver's influence on alcohol to say that he failed to notice a high speeding police cruiser without lights or siren. Burke will claim that he was on a search and pursue.
