Media Silent On This Unarmed Black Woman Shot By the Police
A cop just walked after murdering an innocent, unarmed woman. Like so many other cases of murder why killer cops walk, the victim was African American. But for some reason, even though the judge admits the officer was in the wrong, the killer walked and no one in the national mainstream media is even talking about it.
Chicago Police Detective Dante Servin was just found not guilty on Monday, in charges related to Rekia Boyd.
The judge ruled that even though Detective Servin fatally shot an unarmed woman, he should not be convicted of involuntary manslaughter.
