New video has emerged of eye witnesses recounting the July 5th beating of
homeless man Kelly Thomas in Fullerton, California. Friends of Fullerton
obtained security footage of a bus where several people who witnessed the
incident discussed what they saw at length.

Very bad indeed....if the outcome is unlawful killing

Then the officers involved should be brought up on manslaughter or murder 2 charges. Just because you put on the blue, doesn't make you immune to what you do.

Those sick thugs need to be hauled in front of a judge.

Bad cops will forever taint the reputation of the good ones, and forever jeopardize the safety of the force as a whole.

Six armed soldiers beating an unarmed civilian to death would be all over the press, screaming for murder charges against the soldiers - look at the outrage over the puppy-tossing incident.

Six armed police officers beating an unarmed civilian to death, and this is the first I've heard of it - so much for "to serve and protect," huh, Fullerton PD?

Capital Murder. You don't beat a guy that badly, and taze him six times, and not pay the price - that is cruel and unusual punishment, torture even, in the application of excessive use of force.
