http://usuncut.com/news/unarmed-father-shot-daniel-shaver/Officer Philip Brailsford gunned him down with his own personal AR-15 assault rifle, which was inscribed with the phrase Youre f***ed, according to Tucson News.
Prosecutor Susie Charnel can be heard on the recording telling Sweet that Mr. Montgomery, and Im not just saying this because hes my boss, but you know, I think hes extending you a lot of courtesies, you know and um and by having you go ahead and see something this difficult because it was difficult for us to watch and you know, were professionals, and were not related to him. Thats why its very important that we all understand that this can not go outside of this room media-wise. It would impact negatively on the trial.
Sweet also said that she had not been notified of her husbands death, but had called every hospital and police station after she hadnt heard back from him for two days, until she finally reached the coroners office.
Sweets recording can be heard here:

The city will settle for high seven figures with stipulation that the video never sees the light of day.

(3,263 posts)worse than ever imagined . They are protecting and serving at taxpayers expense. The public has aright and the treatment of his spouse with no notification even though he clearly had ID at death is disgusting but that is not breaking the law and has no reference in the conviction. This is why Chicago protested against the whole police department and city officials including one who just got voted out in the primary here. That controlling call and nonchalant dismissal are part of the entire culture. Does the private gun take some responsibility off the city settlement ? You sounded more legally in the know
