2nd police officer acquitted in death of Elijah McClain, who was put in a neck hold, given ketamine

Literally putting ketamine in his system so they can use it as a ‘reason’ to beat and/or kill him. Cops out here lynching black men in modern daylight.

Actual last words:

I can't breathe. I have my ID right here. My name is Elijah McClain. That's my house. I was just going home. I'm an introvert. I'm just different. That's all. I'm so sorry. I have no gun. I don't do that stuff. I don't do any fighting. Why are you attacking me? I don't even kill flies! I don't eat meat! But I don't judge people, I don't judge people who do eat meat. Forgive me. All I was trying to do was become better. I will do it. I will do anything. Sacrifice my identity, I'll do it. You all are phenomenal. You are beautiful and I love you. Try to forgive me. I'm a mood Gemini. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Ow, that really hurt! You are all very strong. Teamwork makes the dream work. [after vomiting] Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to do that. I just can't breathe correctly."

I can never understand, with all the people in this country that are totally without hope or happiness, have easy access to firearms, and a fixation on dramatic spectacles... combined with no shortage of justice-dodging pigs like this one... Hmm, forgot where I was going with that.

This is America.

The headline is a little misleading. It makes it look like officers were only acquitted, which isn't true.

3 officers were charged. 1 has already been "found guilty on charges of criminally negligent homicide and assault." The other 2 were acquitted.

The 2 paramedics involved in forcing Elijah to overdose on ketamine are awaiting trial. Not sure why we're trusting paramedics to give correct dosages of sedatives, but here we are.

I hope that event lives in this fucker's nightmares until his very last moment on earth.
