Ja to that!
The amount of money it's going to cost the city and state to investigate, then the money the union is going to have to gear up for to protect their members, then the cost of legals just to cover insurance for the city, county, state is gonna be awful.
Then we go on to the criminal and civil charges. I doubt highly the cops will be charged criminally. Even when they're caught on video tape, it's historically proven that cops in California will get off especially if it's a black guy they've beaten the crap out of.
The civil charges however are gonna be astronomical. Each cop is gonna get charged as well as the dept, city, state.
By default the suspect is gonna walk away one awesomely wealthy man. Not to mention the residents who are suffering psychological trauma they can sue for.
Lawyers are flyin' in from who knows where to represent the people involved. This shit is gonna go on for an eon and the only way they're gonna get out of it is if the suspect claims God told him not to press charges. That takes care of alot of legal shit BUT it's gonna be the Dept. of Justice's civil rights division that's really gonna pour on the steam.
California has a rotten reputation with black people and with summer coming up I wouldn't want to be caught on the wrong side of town after this shit starts simmerin'.
