NJ SHERIFF'S OFFICER POINTED GUN AT WOMAN'S HEAD, THREATENED TO KILL HER: AUTHORITIES A New Jersey sheriff's officer is facing charges for allegedly pointing a gun at a woman's head and threatening to kill her last week. But is this just another case of a "few bad apples"? I don't think so. Technology such as cameras, cell phones, and social media has debunked that overused and expedient phrase. That "bad apple" excuse can no longer defend police against violent misconduct. And it's no longer just about systemic racism either. While it's true that police killings and misconduct disproportionately affect black and Latino people, the problems with modern policing pose a risk to everyone of every race. "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." https://www.audacy.com/1010wins/news/nj-sheriffs-officer-pointed-gun-at-... |

OHIO COPS BULLY AND ARREST REPORTER ON LIVE TV NewsNation reporter Evan Lambert is arrested after reporting live during a news conference in Ohio. Lambert had been giving a live update on a toxic chemical train derailment involving the release of these chemicals. There are some claims by police that when Lambert finished his report he then criticized the cops. In other words the police apparently got their feelings hurt and were more concerned about soothing their own egos than upholding constitutional rights. These Ohio cops escalated and took Lambert out of the room and went Hands-On. Legal experts say the charges are absurd and that a prosecutor sooner or later will almost certainly drop the charges. The fact is as the governor said reporting from a news conference is not a crime and criticizing police to their face is also not a crime. In a case like this there are grounds for a civil lawsuit against the police given that the cops actions and detention in Mr Lambert were unlawful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmBGmDELd8A |

TYRE NICHOLS’S DEATH RAISES HARD QUESTIONS ABOUT RACE AND POLICING - By Gerard Baker One understandable but inadequate take on the killing of Tyre Nichols is the idea that we should feel some satisfaction that justice works. Five police officers beat a young black man to a pulp, rendering him lifeless on the street and he dies three days later. The men are all quickly fired, arrested and charged with murder. Thus, the panglossian says, the majesty of the law at work. Awful as it was, there is no larger lesson here beyond man’s unending capacity for inhumanity to man. A terrible crime is committed, quickly investigated and resolved, and the wheels of justice are swiftly set in motion. |

THESE CITIES ARE LIMITING TRAFFIC STOPS FOR MINOR OFFENSES Police have killed over 600 people during traffic stops in the last five years with black drivers disproportionately falling victim to these deadly Encounters. This is not Public Safety and it doesn't have to be this way and police officers with guns and tasers should be removed from low-level traffic enforcement immediately. Do we really need them issuing traffic tickets? Some cities like Los Angeles and Philadelphia have introduced laws and policy changes aiming to drastically reduce the number of pullovers from minor traffic offenses which too often result in unnecessary escalation and deadly violence. Tyree Nichols is remembered as a kind joyful 29 year old with a love of family and skateboarding and a passion for photography his senseless killing at the hands of Memphis Police is yet another tragic example of a traffic stop turned deadly. He should still be alive along with Dante Wright, Philandro Castile, Walter Scott, Sam Dubose and too many black Americans to name who've been killed by police following a traffic stop for something as meaningless as a broken tail light, an expired license tag, or an air freshener hanging from a rearview mirror. All of our communities should take note and work to end police involvement in traffic stops for good - Robert Reich - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-02/police-traffic-stops-... |

JUDGE ORDERS STATE TO RELEASE INFORMATION ABOUT POLICE USE OF BABY BLOOD SPOTS This is a phenomenal victory by Attorney CJ Griffin! But its ramifications go far beyond prosecuting suspects by linking their blood type to their children. It can also be misused to prejudice new born children. Predictive policing methods already exist in several states. Police can now use the genetic material contained in blood to forecast criminal behavior. In a 2000 study by the U.S. Department of Justice, "genetic factors represent one source of influence on criminal behavior and that additional genetic research may contribute to crime and violence prevention efforts."[1] This is the kind of hocus-pocus that's existed since the 1700s.[2] [1] Genetic Factors and Criminal Behavior - Office of Justice Programs. https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/genetic-factors-and-....
