    Meta-Investigation on The Michael Brown Case

    There are no actual charges yet for this case, because they are still investigating this case in Ferguson, Missouri. The officer had reasonable doubt to ask Michael Brown to get off the road and to get onto the sidewalk. He had the law on his side if he would have frisked the two young guys and possibly arrest one or both of them. The media and Al Sharpton and other Elites are trying to make this out to be a civil case. It almost seems as if Michael basically committed Copicide. The rule of discretion was followed, it seems. The officer followed through at his own discretion instead of calling for backup.…

    The case originated back in October 1963, involving John W. Terry and Richard Chilton. The two men were seen on a corner by veteran police detective, Martin McFadden, of the Cleveland Police Department, Ohio. According to the officer, the two men were acting in a suspicious way, by peering into the same store window. The two men were seen making multiple trips toward the window, when a third man came into the scenario. The officer suspected the men of “casing” the store for robbery.

Finding the weapon, he ordered the men into the nearby store, where a more invasive search ensued. He then removed Terry’s jacket and removed the weapon from its holster.

    Radley Balko Case Study

    The Utah police shot a young man who had a golf club and thought his home was being burglarized. Although, the suspect could have been on drugs during the raid, the officers had the discretion to talk the gentleman down or to use force. In the video, it clearly shows that before the roommate could get out of the hallway, shots were fired. You can clearly see that the roommate did not have a gun, but that he had a golf club in his hand. In this case the police could have shot the man with a taser gun instead of a gun, or if they had fear of weapons used, they could have shot the man in a non fatal area. The second video shows the officer shooting someone who had a knife. The suspect was asked by police to put down his knife and within seconds the man was fatally shot. The officer could have given the man more time to drop his knife, no matter the area of where the man had the knife on him. Although the police camera did not record the visual aspect of the confrontation between the man and the officer, the officer decision cost a man of his life. In the recording the officer was asked by a woman who was near the scene why did he shoot the man. The officer responded and stated that he did not put the knife down as requested. The officer was cleared of any charges in this case. The officer could have given more time for the man to put the knife down or tased the man, or used pepper spray to ensure officer safety. The last video, although had no fatalities, showed that they officers were unethical in their decision making. The last video records officers joking and singing in a suspect’s musical equipment, after they enter the home believing drugs were sold out of the home. The homeowner did have personal use marijuana in the home not and enough to sell as mass distribution. After the officers realized that the musical equipment was expensive and exceptional the officers started…

    Police Brutality: The Case Of Michael Brown

    There are many people that oppose my opinion. Many people believe that officers do not use excessive force, that what happens is not police brutality and that these officers are only doing their job. There is no doubt that some are doing exactly that, their job, but when there is an officer that is shooting at a young man several times is unnecessary. This happened to Michael Brown, according to Darren Wilson, the officer that shot him, he fit the description a suspect who had stolen cigarettes. The officer pulled over Michael Brown and his friend. Michael Brown got away and the officer chased after him and many witnesses said that Brown was surrendering to the officer, while others said that Brown was charging toward the officer, either way,…

    Tamir Rice Shooting: Not Just A Tragedy Analysis

    Williams, writes about how a young 12-year-old boy is shot and killed by a police officer. The boy was shot because the police got a call from someone saying that there is a person in the park pointing a gun at people. “Although they said the gun was “probably fake” and the person was “probably a juvenile.” (Williams). However, that message was not relayed to the police. The officers arrived on scene and “got out, drew his weapon and fired as the boy reached for the gun in his waistband” (Williams). Tamir possibly could have been handing over the weapon or trying to show the officers that the weapon was fake. In the article, the author states that the officers were white. It doesn't matter whether they were white or black. Once again people bring race into it. There is no way of knowing if the boy was trying to surrender or attempt to hurt the officers with the pellet gun. The author also writes about a recent study that has been conducted that resulted in finding out that both black and white officers are more likely to draw their weapon and fire at an African American person of suspicion rather than a white subject in the same scenario. A new bill is being enforced to make sure manufacturers that produce toy guns in colors that won’t be misguided as a real gun. The thesis of the article is “When a Cleveland prosecutor announced Tuesday that'd he'd recommend a grand jury not indict a city police officer for gunning down a 12-year -old boy armed with a toy pellet gun, he called it a confluence of human error, mistakes, and miscommunication” (Williams). The purpose of the article was to inform and to potentially persuade the reader. The intended audience could likely be anyone…
