Now someone is being loose with the truth as the sheriff says zero strikes to Mr. Silva's head while witnesses report multiple strikes to his head.

1. "This type of incident

is not uncommon in law enforcement across this country"

I found one bit of truth in his statement.

3. Agreed

"The attorney for the Silva family expressed deep skepticism about the autopsy findings, saying it's hard to believe the baton blows and dog bites did not in any way contribute to Silva's death.

"They're trying to say he died of natural causes," David Cohn told the Bakersfield Californian. "Who would believe that?"

"Silva, 33, a father of four, was pronounced dead early May 8, within an hour of the altercation. Witnesses reported seeing several deputies repeatedly strike the man in the head with batons as he lay on the pavement. Youngblood said Thursday that there was no evidence Silva had head wounds."

4. What a sack of crap

I don't believe a word of it.
He doesn't even address the theft of cellphones by police thugs or statements of eyewitnesses.

5. Yeah, Right

The coroner works for the sheriff. The same sheriff that publicly questioned if there "ever was" a second video. The one you can see being recorded at 5:43 of the released video.

You know how this is going to go. It's going to be covered up.
