Important --> This is NOT a federal trial. 5 yrs later, DOJ has yet to announce whether they'll prosecute Daniel Pantaleo. Today's case is being prosecuted by the Civilian Complaint Review Board. At most, Pantaelo can be fired from the NYPD.

As we remember
#EricGarner this morning when Pantaleo cop trial begins, let's also remember#RamseyOrta, whose actions made sure NYPD couldnt completely sweep this all under the rug. -

“The day after Mother’s Day, to have to watch the video that the world saw of my son being killed, to be at this trial after 5 yrs, and to see all of the tricks that Pantaleo’s lawyers are trying to pull to avoid accountability, it’s really hard,” Gwen Carr,

@NYCmayor claims to be America’s most progressive mayor & ran on campaign promise of police accountability, but has utterly failed to hold ANY of the MULTIPLE officers involved in killing of#EricGarner accountable. He must ensure NYPD#FirePantaleo & ALL officers involved. -
If a McDonald’s worker spat in someone’s food it wouldn’t take 5 years to determine to fire them. Officer Pantaleo used a banned chokehold and killed someone. 5 years later his employers are determining whether to fire him or not. It’s not rocket science.

“Pantaleo’s lawyers tried to portray their shenanigans to delay and gut this case as minor inconveniences. The reality is that my family has been suffering for five years. These are not inconveniences to us, they are playing with our lives,” Gwen Carr,

MUST READ:
@NYDailyNews Op-Ed by Reporters Committee calls on NYS legislature to take action on 50a, law that shields police disciplinary records from public scrutiny (like Daniel Pantaleo, who killed#EricGarner with a chokehold).#Repeal50a@rcfphttp://bit.ly/2VlIAn0
