  1. “While the incident was unfortunate, IMPD contends the officers’ actions were lawful, compliant with department policies and were not negligent,” IMPD said in a statement. “While IMPD respects the jury process, it is disappointed with this verdict. IMPD and its legal counsel are reviewing possible legal next steps.”

    “ImPd CoNtEnDs ThAt JuRiEs AnD tHe RuLe Of lAw CaNnOt Be ApPlIeD tO oUr OfFiCeRs”

    IMDP should be a respectable institution and take accountability. Only the police would kill somebody negligently, be found liable by a JURY, and release a statement full of doublespeak that flies in the face of the codified sanctity of juries in the United States. This series of events, from its terribly sad beginning to where we are now, shows why police have the lost respect and trust of large swaths of people throughout the US.

  2. Robert, almost everything you wrote below the quote is not factual. Bottom line is in America everyone is entitled to due process. Yes, even the dreaded Police. I’m sure this will be appealed. Let’s just wait and see how it turns out. Thank you.

    1. That’s exactly the problem. If you’re correct and the case will be appealed, the question many will have is, WHY? If a jury determined the officers where negligent, then what other evidence can be provided that wasn’t already provided to overturn the current ruling is beyond me….
