It would be tough for the grand jury to indict with testimony such as these, especially since they were supported by (and in turn supported) the physical evidence.
I haven't seen testimony or evidence in the Garner case, but the video certainly is troubling. Garner's resistance seems pretty mild, and the officer seems to maintain the hold longer than necessary considering all the support surrounding him. |
the hold should never have been done at all, since it's against dept. policy.
