A judge in Ohio said on Thursday he had found probable cause to charge a police officer with murder for the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice last year.
Judge Ronald Adriane of the Cleveland municipal court said there were grounds to prosecute officer Timothy Loehmann with murder, manslaughter and reckless homicide.
Walter Madison, an attorney for Rice’s family, told the Guardian: “We are very much relieved and it is a step towards procedural justice and people having access to their government.”
The ruling followed community leaders taking the unusual step of appealing directly to the judge to commence a prosecution of the officer.
Madison said the decision showed “the police are public servants and not the public’s master”.

I saw that tweet, but most of the reports are saying the judge has found probable cause, but no charges just yet.

Murder is an over charge depending upon Ohio laws. An illusion to get this cac off...depending on Ohio law.

BRING ON THE CIVIL SUITS
Black law suits could cripple these police departments and force them to reel in their barbarian enforcers.

I hope there are chargers and the family can win a civil suit.
Cops are finally starting to take some L's recently. First the Ferguson PD report and all those resignations, and the Alabama cop that got indicted for paralyzing that Indian man, then the Walter Scott arrest, all the Baltimore charges, the McKinney resignation, and now it looks like good news on this case.
Can't the jury still choose manslaughter even if the original charge is murder? I thought I remembered cases where the jury ended up with a less charge than the prosecutors were going for. I could be wrong on that though.
