    In November, South Carolina police shot Ariane McCree at least two dozen times while he was handcuffed. The SC AG declined to press charges against officers. After video footage was released Thursday, he’s now requesting a federal review.

        Requesting a review after they have been caught. Imagine if there was no video, they would have gotten away with it.

        The SC AG had to have seen the body worn camera video back when it happened. I’m so sick of cops, prosecutors and review boards delaying in hopes people will forget.
