I'm still bemused.
Police officer appears to cause death of restrained arrestee. Significant evidence suggests that he is guilty of excessive force, leading to death. There's some evidence that the deceased was at one time or another a wrong un and may not have been compliant in acceding to arrest. Hopefully the trial will get to the truth and "justice" meted out.
However, there are people on the news suggesting that if the "right" result isn't delivered, there may be trouble. How can this be in line with a fair trial? Surely the media ought to be pointing this out?
There's also the contention that this is all about race. If found guilty, can his guilt be proven to be of a racist nature? Or is he just an @rrsehole?
There's a complicity in media coverage here that is potentially leading to excessive pressure for a given verdict and / or mayhem if that doesn't happen.
