They can't, by law, do anything.

But, they have opened up cause for a class action lawsuit against the Town of Ferguson which will definitely be 7-8 figures.

And the best part about it is that the money will go to all AA's....no CACS

I guess if that's how you look at it. More murders and no accountability



By law yes they can, all those witness who say he have his hands ups and he still shoot him. Most ppl in this country get charge with less evidence, this dude didn't even get to that point. DOJ wasn't going to do shyt to that cop , the murderer was left unpunished . These ppl still got they job and its business as usual, the corrupt handle the corrupt. No one is ever charged and nothing really ever changes

Body-camera maker has financial ties to police chiefs

Source: ap

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -- Taser International, the stun-gun maker emerging as a leading supplier of body cameras for police, has cultivated financial ties to police chiefs whose departments have bought the recording devices, raising a host of conflict-of-interest questions.

A review of records and interviews by The Associated Press show Taser is covering airfare and hotel stays for police chiefs who speak at promotional conferences. It is also hiring recently retired chiefs as consultants, sometimes just months after their cities signed contracts with Taser.

Over the past 18 months, Taser has reached consulting agreements with two such chiefs weeks after they retired, and it is in talks with a third who also backed the purchase of its products, the AP has learned. Taser is planning to send two of them to speak at luxury hotels in Australia and the United Arab Emirates in March at events where they will address other law enforcement officers considering body cameras.

The relationships raise questions of whether chiefs are acting in the best interests of the taxpayers in their dealings with Scottsdale, Arizona-based Taser, whose contracts for cameras and storage systems for the video can run into the millions of dollars.

While persecuting black residents, white Ferguson officials collude to erase tickets for friends & colleagues – DoJ

DoJ investigators: no evidence found that racist emailers were ever disciplined or asked to stop by recipients

AG Eric Holder: "The use of dogs by #Ferguson PD seems to be exclusively directed towards African Americans."


AG Holder: "Ferguson officers routinely violated the fourth amendment." Stopped pedestrians for no reason, handed out illegal citations

In Darren Wilson's case, Ferguson PD let him walk away with the evidence, wash off the blood, be interviewed w/o taping etc.
