Police Officer Minutes Before Beating Suspect to Death, "These Fists are going to Eff You Up"

This is the Kelly Thomas case from Fullerton (Orange County) California. Local radio was awash in the DA press conference. There were 6 officers involved, and two of them has been charged. One with 2nd degree murder, the second with involuntary manslaughter (administrative action against the others is most likely pending for violating the excessive use of force violation). There were other charges against the cops but those are the most serious. Officer Manny Ramos is charged with 2nd degree murder (and other)

The strongest evidence came from videos of the incident (from a local bus depot, and cell phone video) and audio devices attached to the officers. The DA described the incident in great detail, it was heart-wrenching to listen to how this officer brutally murdered the homeless suspect.

yeah I heard about this. Just sad. Some people should never be put in the position of power that comes with being a cop.

Life in general population would surely be a fair ... and rather short ... sentence.
