Seems that Waller County officials are trying to cover up Sandra Bland's tragic death

[Panich52]

It seems that Waller County officials are trying to cover up Sandra Bland's tragic death:

District Attorney Elton Mathis has not filed any criminal charges against Texas State Trooper Brian Encinia despite a video that shows him violently attacking and wrongfully arresting Sandra. Officer Encinia also falsified his police reports.1

DA Mathis and Sheriff Glenn Smith have failed to provide Sandra's family with key documents concerning her death, choosing instead to manipulate the press by leaking selective information.2

There are clear discrepancies between jail documents leaked to the public and those on record.3

Both DA Mathis and Sheriff Glenn Smith have refused to step off the case despite a long histories of racism and corruption.4

ACT: This Thursday, we are delivering more than 500,000 voices to the Department of Justice demanding justice for Sandra Bland. Add your voice day today.

Our only shot at knowing what happened to Sandra and holding those responsible accountable is for the Department of Justice to intervene. Yesterday, after growing public pressure, Attorney General Loretta Lynch acknowledged Sandra's death, but fell short of launching an independent investigation.5 Now is the time to ramp up our pressure and calls for justice. It's the Department of Justice's job to prosecute cases of systemic abuse and civil rights violations targeting Black communities. 

Thanks and peace,

special attention or enhanced procedures if we are on some government list? The normal arrest procedures can be quite intimidating when experienced for the first time. They are designed to emphasize your isolation and vulnerability. That is why support groups are formed at protests.

To get an idea of what Law Enforcement themselves consider abusive procedures, you only have to read The Law Enforcement Officers' Bill of Rights.

These are from and for people who know the system. Normal Citizens are not afforded these rights.
