As I said, this guy didn't deserve to die. My understanding is that they tried to talk to him and her refused so they tried to handcuff him and he resisted. I also understand he was pepper sprayed and then shortly after that the video starts and we see the cops on top of him.

We don't see them beating him up or choking him. We see them holding him down and handcuffing him. Did all four of them need to jump on him? I don't know. I wasn't there. I didn't see what happened before the video started rolling.

It is a tragedy what happened to this guy, but as I said before, the police have no idea if he is involved or not, if he is armed or not, and what his intentions are. If you refuse to talk to them then resist them they assume the worst.

There should be an investigation into this. I will wait to say whether or not they should go to jail until I hear all of the evidence. Supposedly there is security cam footage of the entire event. I would love to see that so we can see exactly how this started.
