With true benevolence the prosecutorial overlord declined to prosecute the tazed woman too...

The nearly two-year delay in passing judgment on the officers was a result, in part, of the seriousness of the case. Santander's actions were disturbing enough to police investigators that they postponed the internal inquiry in order to present the case to the district attorney's office for possible criminal charges.

The D.A.'s office concluded last year that the video and other evidence were not conclusive enough to prove that Santander had committed any crimes, according to the prosecutor's memo. Prosecutors also declined to charge the woman.

The incident marks the fourth time in the last few months that cases have come to light in which LAPD officers are accused of using force on suspects who had been restrained.

Of course the prosecutors declined to prosecute the armed enforcers of the Banksters, who pay for both these clowns to be their servants.

I'm not at all surprised by this. Just another day in the just-us system.

Yet the words of infamously corrupt police are enough to prosecute any mundane. The prosecutor and the piggy need to be prosecuted.

one good thing about louisiana law, an accusation like this goes before a grand jury. DA isn't allowed to decide on it.
