Reforming the Defense Department's 1033 program "is a reasonable step towards demilitarizing our police forces while preserving the safety of our communities."

The trial is putting a spotlight on “the disproportionate killing of Black people by police” in the United States.

Last week, two of the officers were fired from the department after police officials reviewed the body cam videos.

The former sheriff was released on a $15,000 bond.

“While we can never take away the pain of the Ambler family, the grand jury has sent a clear message that no one is above the law.”

When Officer Black was ordered to watch the video of the arrest, he wrote in another report, “I believe my perception was altered due to the high stress of the incident.”

“My son has been fighting every day for his life. He’s struggling to breathe on his own. My baby didn’t deserve it. I miss my son. I want him to be back the way he used to be.”

The prison guard faces possible life sentences for the two civil rights charges and another 20 years for the misleading information charge.

Despite the video evidence of the officers’ misconduct, a grand jury has dismissed the charges.

“You arrest the sergeant for doing the right thing, but you don’t arrest the officers for doing the wrong thing.”
