“It’s a Disgrace” Even U.S. Congressmen are Disgusted with the Grand Jury Decision in Garner Case [VIDEO]

 

New York, N.Y. – A U.S. congressional delegation of Congressmen from New York, representing a broad cross section of ethnicity, held a press conference to express their absolute disgust with the grand jury decision to not indict anyone in the killing of Eric Garner.

“The decision by a grand jury not to indict in the death of Eric Garner is a miscarriage of justice. It’s an outrage, it’s a disgrace, it’s a blow to our democracy and it should shock the conscience of every single American who cares about justice and fair play,” said Rep. Hakeem Jeffries.

  1. We still need body cameras on all cops and in all cop cars. The video footage helped put Johannes Messerly behind bars for shooting Oscar Grant in the back as he was pinned down by police.
  2. We need an indictment team dissociated with the police – one from the United Nations for example.
  3. We need the police to have regular mental health screenings and regular bias tests

Attorney On Garner Decision: “This Is The Lowest Point For Civil Rights In America”

 

On Wednesday the nation was literally hit with a massive punch to its collective gut as we learned a Staten Island grand jury failed to indict NYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo for the chokehold death of 43-year-old Eric Garner.
Despite video evidence that captured the entire incident leading up to the Garner being drug down to the ground and exclaiming 11 times “I can’t breathe,” the 23 person panel which comprised of 14 whites and 9 non-whites decided to not indict Pantaleo for his actions that caused the death of Garner.
