of course the policeman was cleared. I expected that all along. but I'm glad that it brought to light all that was occurring in that town, which is reprehensible.
and I'd imagine the chief wasn't there, because he's packing up his things.
perhaps this will produce broader reviews, and bring more attention to places like this.

that article has a link in it to the doj report.
The news is not just that he was cleared. It was the wording. Holder didn't say that he thought the officer was guilty but they just couldn't prove it. Holder said the opposite. He said they did an exhaustive investigation in which they interviewed 300 people. They found no evidence that Brown's hands were up. They found that that Brown was definitely coming at the officer. They also found that Brown attacked the officer while the officer was in his police car. In other words, there was no case. There was no wrongdoing on the officer's part.
