Shot in the back while running away. No conviction. An abomination.

No case of police brutality in America was more open & shut than the brutal murder of #WalterScott. NONE.

No conviction. An abomination. pic.twitter.com/9w7xqQ86ID

Of the 12 jurors on the #WalterScott murder trial 11 are white, one is black. This is a problem in an area which is 47% African-American.

A white cop shot a black man. In the back. On camera. But this jury doesn't know if it was murder. #WalterScott

— Aura Bogado (@aurabogado) December 2, 2016
