Cop in California legit tried to arrest a black man bc he was “illegally eating.”😳
My mind can’t even begin to comprehend the arrogance needed to justify this nonsense

A cop said Pedro Barbosa tried to run him over w/ a car. Faced 15 years. But it was a lie. Investigators from @BklynDefender got video proving the cop fabricated the charge. They saved his life. Mr. Barbosa now free. Officer pled guilty to perjury & fired. https://t.co/suesK2g7oI
