Default Re: Official "FUCK THA POLICE" thread

A man described as being a gentle family man has been shot to death by police investigating a sexual complaint. There's no indication the man who was killed was even the cause of the complaint, and even if he were, a non-violent crime like that is certainly no excuse for shooting him to death. Furthermore, it occurred at 6pm, so there's no way it could have been too dark to see.

Quote:
Essex County authorities said Gaymon was apparently unarmed when he was shot once in the chest by the undercover detective, who has not been named, at 6 p.m. He died around 9 p.m at University Hospital in Newark.

Gaymon, who everyone called "Dean," returned to New Jersey because he was the organizer of his high school's 30-year reunion, which took place Friday night.

It was the third law-enforcement related shooting in Newark in a week and the fifth in the past month.

The prosecutor’s office is investigating and has so far only said that the officer encountered Gaymon when he was dispatched to the scene after complaints about sexual activity in public. Authorities are not saying what precipitated the shooting and Gaymon did not appear to be armed.

The undercover sheriff's detective has not yet provided a full statement to investigators.
Another man has been assaulted after finding his son dead of a suicide. The victim claims to have told police simply not to touch them, which resulted in officers proceeding to hold him down and punch him in the face repeatedly and for a prolonged period of time, after which he was arrested.
