    As a part of his testimony in this case, Officer Brian Encinia said, "My safety was in jeopardy at more than one time." They hid this video for good reason.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1125738872481165320 …

    Local authorities kept this cell phone video from Sandra Bland a secret for 4 years. Local journalists @WFAA fought to get it released. Sandra Bland knew her rights. She never should've been arrested and threatened in the first place. A gross abuse of power from this officer. pic.twitter.com/rtVTxQKDye

        & now theyre all co-conspirators who should be charged along side the officer in the video. The DOJ must investigate the entire police dept along with the prosecutors office immediately.

        Agreed. But good luck on getting the Trump DOJ to do anything remotely close to defending the civil liberties of minorities.

        You're right. I know how this sounds but, what about reaching out to the UN? Minorities live under apartheid in America in all but name.

        It was clear from day one he was never in any real danger. We didn’t even need to see this to know that, but seeing NOW after 4 years shows that Sandra Bland was in danger the very moment this officer stepped to her car.

        Don’t forget how this all started. Trooper was on the other side/direction. Saw her )out of state tags?). U turned. Fell in behind her. TAILGATED her. She moved over to let him by. He pulls her over for not signaling that lane change.

        Then gets enraged because she defies his order to put out her cigarette while he’s talking to her. That’s when she’s forced out of her car and then he escalated the confrontation til she lashed out, triggering the arrest. He knew exactly what he was doing.

        I’m actually very pro-police. But this was a chickenshit stop conducted with unnecessary attitude that then culminated in confrontation, arrest and the ultimate suicide of a vulnerable person. It’s indefensible.

        This is how cops get away with sexually assaulting women as well. If you have no recourse when an officer is clearly abusing their power, anything could happen to you. You go into fight or flight mode and 9/10 if you’re a POC the cop will just murder you for not listening.
