Police Use Racism To Target And Beat Victim

Posted by admin

Rhames explained on the Clay Caine show that the incident was sparked by a neighbor calling police to report that a “large black man” had broken in.

Ohio Police Officer Abuses Power The abuse of power by law enforcement officers knows no bounds, as was proven once again when Lorain, Ohio police officer John Kovach made the choice to deal with family drama by detaining his daughter’s boyfriend for no reason.
