They think things are bad now? If they try to lowball the charges to something less, it's going to be pandemonium. People are sick and tired of black people being constantly murdered by cops.

Kneeling on a suspect's throat for 15 or 30 seconds to calm down a struggling suspect can be understandable. 7 or 9 minutes is way beyond reason.
