    So what. These people had the power to do right by the family of #TerrenceCrutcher and refused. Keep those tears. They failed this family.https://twitter.com/AndreaEger/status/865038731253874690 …

        Her first defense was "temporary deafness". This Is Why We Protest. This is bullshit.

        We need to expose, shame& sue govt officials who clearly abuse their powers. They're thugs who've hijacked their office to act above the law

        Maybe it's me, but my 1st thought is that those 5 jurors were bullied by the other 7. We don't know who they are, but power dynamics exist.
