May 15, 2013—A judge in New York throws out the charges against a cop who gunned down 18-year-old Ramarley Graham in his own home while his grandmother and six-year-old brother look on in horror. The judge found that prosecutors had erred in their instructions to the grand jury that issued the indictment against this killer cop.
June 18, 2013—A mistrial is declared in the case of the Detroit cop who killed seven-year-old Aiyana Stanley-Jones. Despite the fact that the cops broke into the wrong home, burned Aiyana with a flashbang grenade, and gunned her down as she slept with her grandmother, no cops or any other authorities have been punished in any way!
July 13, 2013—George Zimmerman, who racially profiled, stalked, confronted, and gunned down Trayvon Martin, is found not guilty—a verdict that came down to a declaration that Black people still have no rights that white people are bound to respect!
Now a federal court has overturned the convictions of the cops who killed unarmed people on the Danziger Bridge in New Orleans six days after Hurricane Katrina and tried to cover up their crimes.
