"...the charges against Officer Samayoa cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt" - California Attorney General Rob Bonta on why he won't pursue homicide charges against the cop who killed Keita O'Neil, an unarmed Black man.
Maybe I'm ignorant, but shouldn't "reasonable doubt" be up to a jury to decide??
Reminder: So far in 2023 year, police have already killed 113 people.

Video released Thursday in the police killing of #NajeeSeabrooks , a 31-year-old violence intervention activist, who was fatally shot in Paterson, N.J., during a mental health crisis.
many advocates they raise even more questions about why lethal force was used at all. For others, it also substantiates what they already knew: Seabrooks should still be alive. #PoliceAbuseOfPower #PoliceAccoutability #PoliceKilling
#SanFrancisco: Rally against #PoliceViolence and demand accountability. Justice for Keita O'Neil rally & protest this Wednesday, March 1, 8:30 a.m. at 850 Bryant Street.
#OTD 2018, I had the honor of giving a talk at the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race & Justice at #HarvardLawSchool.
This talk was based on an article idea that I had been pitching, about some striking similarities between the 1962 #PoliceKilling of #RomanDucksworth, Jr. and the 2014 police killing of #MichaelBrown. An editor at a major national magazine told me it was not fair to compare the racist behavior of the two #police officers. But Harvard disagreed.
#Police in the U.S. are cold-blooded killers. Black people have very good reason to distrust them. The institution of policing is beyond reform and should be abolished.

I think we are going to deeply regret and pay dearly for our refusal to hold the Jan 6th insurrectionists accountable up to and including Trump himself. The most infuriating thing about it might be that we all know with absolute certainty if that mob had been ANYONE other than white, conservative Christians every single one that the police hadn’t shot and killed would be in jail today as would the leader who told them to riot. #Jan6th #ChristianNationalism #TrumpCrimes #PoliceKilling #Politics
