@@christopherdunlap88 that's stupid he was not executed and what does shooting him in back have do with anything is there a law saying you cant shoot a armed man shooting at u in the back. ?? Nope. Stop trying to act like they did this cause he was black. Dont he the problem be the solution man.
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP Chew on this fella. For those who may be inclined to judge the Atlanta PD officers in the Brooks shooting, here's some legal information: APD SHOOTING EXPLAINED Before reading below, remember that officers are afforded the same constitutional rights a citizens, so whether they’re charged for political reasons or not, the facts of the case remain the same until their day in court: In order to understand this situation, you’ve got to set feelings and emotions aside to understand objective reasonableness. So looking at this case, what do we know? A DUI investigation determined that he was too intoxicated to drive. The bodycam showed the officers being overly nice and polite to him the entire time all the way up until the handcuffs were about to go on, as they should’ve been. As soon as they tried to cuff him, an all out brawl took place. Not just resisting, but punching them in the face and throwing them around. He took one officer’s taser, threw him face first into the asphalt, stood up, and took off. _____________ So let’s pause there and see where we’re at legally. Charges: DUI Obstruction X2 - Felony Battery on an officer X2 Aggravated assault X2 - Felony Strong Armed Robbery - Felony And believe it or not.... Possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime - Felony Per Georgia Law, a taser is classified as a “less-lethal” FIREARM as they do occasionally cause death. (OCGA 16-11-106) ________________ These offenses are important because there is a case law called Tennessee v Garner What Tennessee v Garner states is: “When a non-violent felon is ordered to stop and submit to police, ignoring that order does not give rise to a reasonable good-faith belief that the use of deadly force is necessary, UNLESS it has been threatened.” So this goes back to the taser being classified as a firearm that can cause death or great bodily harm. ___________ So, They fought He stole the taser He got up and ran The 2nd officer chased after him and tried to use his own taser against him, but he didn’t get a good connection. Brooks then turns, aims the taser at the officer, and fires. Statutorily, this is no different than firing a gun. (The taser that APD carries has 2 cartridges, so Brooks could have potentially shot the officer twice.) The officer dropped his taser from his left hand after it appears he was hit by a barb on the video, draws his sidearm, fires 3 shots, falls against a car in the parking lot and Brooks goes down. Brooks was not only a continuing threat to the officer since he could still fire the taser again, but he also showed and EXTREME desire to get away, with a weapon. So it is not unreasonable to have the fear that he would use that weapon to carjack a motorist sitting in the drive-thru line, take a hostage, or otherwise hurt another innocent party. What does Georgia Law say about deadly force? OCGA 17-4-20 (b): “1. Sheriffs and peace officers may use deadly force: 1.) to apprehend a suspected felon only when the officer reasonably believes that the suspect possesses a deadly weapon. (He did) 2.) to apprehend a suspected felon who possesses any object, device, or instrument which, when used offensively against a person, is likely to or actually does result in serious bodily injury. (He did) 3.) to apprehend a suspected felon when the officer reasonably believes that the suspect poses an immediate threat of physical violence to the officer or others (He did) 4.) to apprehend a suspected felon when there is probable cause to believe that the suspect has committed a crime involving the infliction or threatened infliction of serious physical harm (He did) The officer only needed one of those requirements, but he had all 4........ Now the reason taser’s are considered “less-lethal” is because when used appropriately, you are “less likely” to kill someone vs using a gun. But Brooks hasn’t been through the training to know how to avoid certain vulnerable parts of the body, and he doesn’t understand how neuromuscular incapacitation (NMI) works, which makes it MORE likely for him to cause great bodily injury or death than if an officer used it. And just to support the fact that tasers can and do kill, there is an East Point Officer currently sitting in prison for improperly using a taser and killing a man a few years ago. (Eberhart v Georgia) “He could’ve shot him in the leg!” Right off the top, it is unconstitutional to do so. It is considered cruel and unusual punishment to employ a gun in that manner. Either an officer felt deadly force was necessary, or he should use a lesser response. We could just leave it at that, but that's too much of a cop out, so let's discuss WHY it has been deemed unconstitutional. For one thing, that's an extremely difficult shot to make. The target is quite narrow, and in continuous motion as the suspect runs away/charges the officer. Under the best of conditions trying to hit the leg is challenging...to be generous about it. But in a life or death encounter, the officer's fine motor skills will be eroded by the stress of the encounter making the shot, turning a leg shot into a very low probability feat. Assuming a round does hit the leg, then what? The only way a shot to the leg would immediately stop a threat is by shattering one of the bones, and stopping the threat is the ultimate goal. While it is very difficult to find a shot to the leg that will immediately stop a threat, it is actually comparatively easy to find shots to the leg which eventually prove fatal. Human legs have very large blood vessels which are essentially unprotected (femoral artery) Now remember, we’ve had days to sit back, watch videos, discuss, and analyze this entire thing. The officers had less than a minute from the time the fight started, and less than 5 seconds to interpret EVERYTHING you just read while running, getting shot at with a taser, and returning fire. -Greg James Founder/Executive Director Georgia Law Enforcement Organization
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP "In all seriousness this case will come down to what the findings of the GBI investigation are as they will make or break this case." They will find him innocent as per the points in my extended post.
As they should be found not guilty. The Officers did nothing wrong and should sue the dept that fired them for unlawful termination solely based on the current events happening right now.
That's the whole point of charging him at all ...the case is cut and dry ...the officer did what he was supposed to ...they know he'll be acquitted an chaos will ensue...
Did you say American way of justice? This man was in prison for beating. his. own. child. That is EVIL, FOREVER EVIL. American justice??? Covid19 happened and he was released. He DUI'd that night, instead of having some SELF RESPECT! Did you take 44 minutes to see the whole video????? Can you brain go that long? To study the facts of this case? Is your loved one DEAD because another DUI was behind the wheel, weaponizing a car because of his own deadly CHOICES? American justice....? If you have the finite idea of commenting on MY feed, then you better come prepared to speak law. Or else shut it and stand down, listen and learn. This CHILD BEATER piece of trash. Anyone who beats their own little child. is. TRASH. He was DUI, failed a sobriety test, failed a breathalyzer, resisted arrest, gave an officer a cuncussion, punched an officer in the face, wrestled an officer to the ground, stole a deadly weapon (Georgia law, read it and learn, or stay finite) He turned and fired the deadly weapon at the officers head. The officer fired his gun in self defense, not the taser. Why not taser? Because Brooks stole the taser. Tasers sound exactly like a gun- because they're both deadly. And you owe me an apology, for your failure to educate yourself before speaking, while on American soil. Which is provided to you by Police Officers and Veterans who risk their lives to protect your small minded existence. Next time you call 911 and an officer comes to save your sorry 'hide, you stand at attention, salute them and thank them for having enough backbone for the both of you. .....next.
@Rab Lewin the officer followed police procedures that are in writing for their department. If a suspect takes your taser, firearm, or baton you are authorized to use deadly force. If you don't like the law that's fine but he followed procedure to the tee. He'll be acquitted and sue in civil court.
That “DA” is mentally disabled if I lived in Atlanta I’d be moving very very soon! Apparently water ain’t wet in Atlanta Up is Down and if you break the law they arrest the police🤦♂️
@@JT-sl3ui did you watch the whole video? Because he was given a chance to just get out the way but dude passed the fuck out again within 30 seconds of the cop telling him. Also he was passed out drunk car in drive. He wasn't parked. Then when he finally moved the car he ran over the curb. Thats when the cop decided to do a dui stop. A few minutes later he didn't know where he was at or that the police had asked him to move
Law enforcement and prosecution teams always lie about witnesses. It’s a bluff to trick people into incriminating themselves. Can’t say I feel guilty when a cop has his own tactics used against him.
All you have to do is play the video of district attorney saying tazzer is a deadly weapon in the state of Georgia. Case closed. Then sue Georgia for slander
If that's the case why didn't the officer use the same amount of force??? He still had his taser so why did he put the taser in his left hand then pull out the gun with his right? And he did it PRIOR to the taser being pointed at him. He was pissed he had just lost a fight in front of a lot of people who were waiting to order a burger. Maybe we could understand force during scuffle but after the person run off you shot him in the back?
@@realtv8132 And that is very wrong and unexcusable but it is morally incorrect and helps no one to serve the same injustice to this officer.

@@realtv8132 So....you're ok with that then. I'm not even comparing to black America, of course that was wrong, but, this isn't even comparable. That was ignorant what you just said!

She reacted as a black woman afraid of backlash from folks such as yourself, who believe everything is racially motivated.

@@TheTexasBrotha She didn't fire him because she thought he was innocent. She jumped to conclusions and found he was guilty on her own. All before an investigation was complete which is against protocol , and sending a wink wink to DA.. She feared backlash from black community, for a man who resisted arrest, punched officers, stole their weapon and fired it at officers head. I would've shot him too. If taser hits officer, it incompacitates him, he takes his gun and kills two officers. Then needs to flee, so he hijacks a car with your wife and baby inside. A chase ensues, he plows through mayor's conference, killing her. He holds your wife and baby hostage because, he refuses to go back to jail. Standoff lasts for hours. He feels desperate and kills your child and wife. All because you thought racial injustice is the issue instead of a man who caused his own demise. But at least he's still here, right?

Incase y’all didn’t know he’s being charged with FELONY murder. That means the officer was already committing a felony before he shot Brooks...let that insane charge sink in for a minute
No if you watch all the different angles he doesn’t do anything illegal until he kicked him after shooting at him(The only way I can really see felony murder is if they tried to treat this as him just shooting mr.brooks in the back for no reason)
It's because he changed hands with his Taser before Brooks ever fired the Taser. So, he had already decided he was going to shoot his pistol BEFOREHAND. I'M sure that's where the felony charges came from......he switched his Taser to his shooting hand.
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP fucked up situation but justified shoot, he wasn't running away when he turned around and fired Taser at the cop. I hope he gets off
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP first off you say your sick of racism but must use the phrase"you people" second its a justified shoot. only way he gets convicted is by a bias jury that doesnt look at the evidence. Georgia law states a taser is a deadly weapon this officer didnt write that law. just 2 weeks ago this DA prosecuted and officer for using a deadly weapon which was a taser. now suddenly a criminal uses it and its referred to as non lethal? play stupid games win stupid prizes had he not shot that taser at the officer hes most likely still breathing and serving time for resisting arrest

The officer should' be free. This is crazy. The D A is dirty. He attacked the cop and fired a Weapon at him . He needs to be free. And awarded damages for this. We need to stop tip toeing around the fact the guy went off and attacked the police officer and took a weapon from him and ran away and turned and fired it at him. His intent was to wound or kill the cop to get away. Give him a medal for bravery.

@Akeel Taylor homegirl tasers the police officer. Homegirl then has access to that officer's service weapon. Meanwhile the police officer's partner whose Taser homegirl stole is still suffering a concussion from homegirl's physical assault. Homegirl stole the taser and ran with it. Homegirl did not drop the taser after resisting arrest and assaulting the police officer but instead carried it with him and attempted to shoot the police officer who was chasing him. Homegirl was a fault. Had homegirl had been raised by good parents homegirl would have taken responsibility for the DUI and accepted the arrest like a normal person but that did not happen.
This is ludicrous! This officer is being punished for doing his job as required! We need to support officers right now not perform a witch hunt on them!
Killing unarmed person is a crime regardless of the circumstances. Police can only use deadly force when their and other life are in danger. In this case the suspect's committed not only a minor crime but was running away from the police and was shot in the back.
Yohannes Berhe are you dumb? He wasn’t unarmed. And even if someone is unarmed they can still pose a threat. And a minor crime? More people are killed by people driving under the influence then cops shooting people and you saying DUI is a minor crime? On top of that he assaulted both police officers and took a weapon from them. He’s committing more crimes in the process.
@@yohannesberhe4859 He wasnt unarmed he had the officers taser and in the state of GA a taser is a deadly weapon and he chose to fire it at them. And rayshard did not commit a minor crime this was his second DUI and a violation of his probation there was no way he was getting off with a warning he was going to jail.
@@raviselliah2027 I would love to see you big mouthed people become cops and I would love to see what you would do in a similar situation. Most of you people would hide under a table at the first sign of resistance, yet you have the biggest mouths of all people.
JJ the situation should have been easily contained. First mistake was to allow the guy to park the car safely whilst being intoxicated.The office should have parked the car and taken the keys. He agreed to the test and was found to be intoxicated. Let him rest in the car , and attempted to get a friend or relative to drive him back home or alternatively given the guy a lift home. Charged him with drink driving !!! Many police forces across the planet deal with the situation in that fashion. They do not use deadly force.Please acknowledge that there is a problem with policing in the states!,
@@raviselliah2027 there is a problem. But how are you gonna arrest the cop for literally enforcing the law? It is completely within the cop's power to kill a man using a tazer. You can't just arrest someone for violating a law that doesn't exist.
Most of Americans are Shocked that they charged the police officer. I watched the full video. This cop was nothing but polite and easy going with Mr. Brooks until he had no choice. He should be acquitted and then sue the shit out of the city of Atlanta.
Most legal analysts who have been interviewed regarding this case say he will be acquitted. They say the evidence speaks for itself - from a legal perspective that is. It's unfortunate that most people here are speaking from a highly charged, emotional perspective - what makes it worse is that they don't know the law and how it works. I don't even know the law, but that's the reason why I can't get so charged about it. In my "opinion" just from watching the video the cop did nothing wrong; legal opinions of many legal analysts say he acted in accordance with the law. The DA's choice to charge him with murder was purely a political move. Brooks was on probation after having spent 7 years in prison for beating his kids so badly they ended up in the hospital. When you are on probation you MUST be on your best behavior. Well, he got drunk and then drove drunk to the restaurant where he passed out at the drive through window while waiting for his food. Drinking and driving is illegal. One time, when my husband was young he was driving under the influence. They took him to jail where he spent the night in a cell for his own protection and the protection of others on the road. The laws were a little different then so I don't know what else happened to him - it was long before I met him. But my husband complied and all went well. He never made that stupid mistake again. Brooks knew that if they took him in for driving drunk they would have found out that he violated parole. That's why he went haywire and stole the cops taser. He didn't want to go back to prison.
I am a black woman I think for the first time justice has not prevailed for the officer!! Praying for him and his family. Sad their was a victim, however everyone was fighting for their lives
God in Heaven. Please help us. There are believers here that love you, Father. We want peace and reject these spirits of confusion and hate and rebellion. Be with us, Jesus. Please.
I hope the cops get exactly what's coming to them. Freedom. Never should have been arrested and acted with the upmost respect. Then the DA has to nerve to show two photos instead of the actual video of the cops supposedly desecrating the body. There's a reason why the video was edited out. Just like what the news media does. Edit out the important parts so society can rage out on inaccurate details

@@johnlyles8345So if someone shoots at you, and then turns to run, you shouldn't shoot at them? You can only shoot during the exact time the other person is shooting at you? That sounds bright. I can imagine it now. Some guy mowing down people left and right but when the cops show up, he'll just turn and run scott free. Then he can turn around shoot some people and do it all over again.
As much as I do not like the police that cop is absolutely innocent he gave that man so many chances to be decent and straight upand was rewarded by this coward running away and attempting to shoot him with a taser
You should never shoot a person in the back you should never shoot a person in the back a person with a loving spirit your heart will never allow to shoot a person in the back a loving heart will never shoot a man in the back the holysprit of jesus christ our saviour would not allow you to shoot a person in the back
The problem is you can’t prove that they’re racist. There’s not enough data and information to prove that police brutality is a result of racism. This issue with George Floyd and Mr. Brooks is a matter of police brutality not racism. And even if it is racism the problem is you can’t prove it. Racism is an issue that is a matter of the heart, only God knows your true intent. Now unless there’s previous records of him saying racial slurs or saying crap about immigrants and black people then I would say it’s most likely racism. But at this point there’s no racism to prove.
@Taipan 1 2 3 , Oh really? We have a man drunk behind the wheel, who attacks both cops, with a record a mile long, attempts to Taze a cop, after the cops were as polite as possible. In your twisted world the cops were racist, in mine they did their jobs to protect themselves and the good people (if there are any left) of Atlanta.
The farleft that want these cops to be CRUCIFIED are actually saying "the cops could have just let him walk home".. Are you kidding? Serious? Thats ridiculous.
@@alfredomagana9728 people don't understand this. And if he would have killed someone else after the police would be liable for it and have to deal with knowing they could of stopped it.
I used to work at a sobering center, aka drunk tank. The drunks that the officers would bring in would make claims like "I was close to my house" and then vomit and stumble to their mats. So the left's claims that the perp in this case could have walked home is not just ridiculous, but dangerous as well. That DA needs to go.
No, you can't put your hands on a police officer but should the punishment for fighting with a police officer and taking one of their tasers be instant death? The DA 100% arrested the 2nd officer to put pressure on him to testify against the arresting officer who fired the fatal shots. It may not be fair, but the same is done to hundreds citizens every day....almost like something like that should be reviewed and possibly changed....
@@Mutation_D We are arguing the same side here. Policing in America needs a reform. It is not okay to flee and resist arrest, and it is not okay for a police officer to shoot a citizen who isn't threatening his life or the lives of innocent bystanders; these things don't have to be mutually exclusive and one (resisting arrest) does not automatically justify the other (shooting someone in the back). Mr. Brooks was in the wrong to try and flee, he was in the wrong to fight against the police officers; however, he DID NOT deserve to have lethal force used against him and he DID NOT deserve to die.

I can whole heartedly say that George Floyd shouldn't have died. He should have been arrested for criminal activity and processed and let out after he went thru that process. Rayshard Brooks fought the cops and took a weapon from them and pointed it at them, after being so intoxicated he couldn't stay awake in the drive thru.

It is pretty clear from the video that Brooks own actions led to his death and the only reason why this officer is being charged is a resUlt of the present anti- police tide after the Floyd incident. In fact, Brooks woUld still be alive today had he not went back to sleep after the officer told Brooks to leave after his initial encoUnter.
They are liers they are doing this for political reasons. If he didn’t resist he would have been done he didn’t want to go back to jail in DUI cause he’s had issues with the police and been in jail before so he is not innocent please
@Steelerz Reign Supreme watch the body cam footage. Strangely disarming an arresting officer of his taser and trying to shoot him with it is okay? The other office is already hurt and down, how dose the officer know that his life is not in jeopardy if he get incapacitated by the taser? Yes it's a non lethal weapon but you don't know know the actions of the person who is willing to fight police if he is incapacitated. For over 40 minutes both officers engage this man with respect and dignity. Even empathetic and friendly at times. No malice or Ill intent was shown this man. Resisting arrest & removing the policeman's taser caused his death. On the other side of this, let's say the first cop let him park and left him alone... He wakes up 30 minutes later and drives away... Maybe causing a car wreck killing a black family of 5 on their way home. Maybe your family would be the victims. Then we would say the office failed to do his job? At what point are people responsible for their own actions? Actions of impaired driving, resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer, disarming a police officer, giving a concussion to a police officer, fleeing with police taser, shooting taser at police, witch if these actions do we as society say is acceptable? When is it reasonable to say stop resisting and comply? Is that not why we have courts? Had he complied, he would be here today. George Floyd's arrest and death had similar interaction where Floyed coperated with police until they tried to put him in the car. The difference is Floyd, handcuffed posed no threat to the officers and the tactic of kneeling on his neck was excessive and unwarranted. The office had his hand in his pocket, totally relaxed as he contributed to Floyd's death. BUT what if Floyd just got in the car without resisting? Think about that for a minute.... He got in the car, no resisting and the officer doesn't use the excessive force, he's still alive, he goes to court and gets off because maybe he didn't know the $20 bill was fake, and the state can't prove he did. We don't have looting, riots that burned down homes and places of business, innocent people getting killed by rioters. Just think how one man's actions can affect so many.

So DUI penalty is SHOT TO DEATH. Comon, the man was running away and got shot in the back. Oh the COP had body armor, called bulletproof/ taserproof vest on
@@derrickberry3982 the penalty for discharging a deadly weapon at a officer who you already punched in the face after putting lives at risk with you drunk driving....is getting shot...c'mon man...or maybe your a criminal too.
@@arthurmorgan4942 he turned his head and pointed a Taser and fired it off. How about this brooks would still be alive if he didnt act crazy. Georgia law tasers considered a deadly weapon
@@stephannorthwest201 even if he tasered it doesnt warrant a death sentence. 1.he was drunk so automatically it should have been taken with care 2. With police violence and the case of george floyd being killed while being unarmed and scared and the case with eric garner he panicked ( this has been addressed by his lawyer and family) We are talking about a death of someone when it could have been completely avoided. Here is a great way of actually dealing with the situation instead of arresting him they should have escorted him home and that's it case closed no violence at all he goes back to his family.
@@arthurmorgan4942 Deadly force is not about if the target deserves to die but if the one using it has reasonable fear of imminent bodily harm or death. Being drunk doesn't mean someone is easier to handle. He was inebriated enough to not be able to legally drive. He pointed the thing that looks like a gun at a person and training and Instinct comes in to shoot at the person that pointed a gun like object at them. You're asking officers to have RoboCop like reflexes to know with absolute certainty that what he was pointing at the time was just a taser instead of a gun and even if it was just a taser and they knew it a cop being tased risks a cop being incapacitated and an assailant who could then get the officer's firearm. I have never heard before this June hysteria people being so dumb as to imply that people who commit DUIs just be escorted home. It's a crime. you get arrested. You're effectively asking cops always be on guard to expect any black person be an imminent violent threat if they don't coddle them emotionally to extreme lengths. Combine that with your expectations of inhuman reflexes and processing of white cops and you just got 21st century White Man's Burden racism. You have all this after the fact assessment that is infantilizing of mr. Brooks. There is no tragedy here that isn't entirely his fault. Don't drink and drive but if you do expect to be arrested. Don't resist arrest but if you do don't let it rise to the level of assaulting cops and stealing their weapons. Don't assault cops with weapons. Don't assault cops at all. This isn't a difficult concept. All of the anger at this is entirely unjustified And the emotions of anyone other than his immediate family are completely unwarranted.
Arthur Morgan Yes I agree this could have been avoided, if Brooks complied with his arrest. This man had a background of abusing his children and they got him on a DUI. They were simply telling him to turn around and comply with being arrested. Brooks resisted, then got loose and began to beat and punch both cops. After stealing the taser from the officer, he ran. The officer chased him and Brooks turned around and tried to fire the taser (considered a deadly weapon) at the officer. The officer reacted in a way he should have. This was justified in all ways. Brooks was the one who made this incident violent. Officers act based on the tone and mood of the civilian.
I agree but the only charge i see is: They should be charged for shooting 2 more times , and i am grey .. If he shot once, arrest him, call for medic help. Then done! Shouldnt have shot 2 more times to kill him The other charges seem too much.
Jesus Christ Official you never shoot to injure or wound cops are trained to shoot to kill. It becomes muscle memory so they don’t freeze up when the time comes
Kevin Green Exactly that’s what’s wrong. There is situations where are you have to shoot to kill but he had a taser for one and for two it had no more shots. Therefore you aim low and take out a leg
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE!!!! PEOPLE NEED TO PROTEST AGAINST THIS DA HE NEEDS TO BE REMOVED!!!! SUPPORT THE OFFICERS #BLUELIVESMATTER THESE OFFIERS WERE JUSTIFIED!!!!! WHERES THE GIB REPORT SMH
@GINSENG M ROSS Well thank you for being kind enough to address me as "lady"!!! I'm glad you went from 0-100 in 5.5 seconds!!! Your comments and ASSUMPTIONS are what is currently wrong in the world today!!! Now they obviously HAD to make him move his car and yes the officers were very friendly but 1 didn't have enough DUI field EC so he had to call for someone else... Most cops BECAUSE OF PEOPLE DEMANDING BODY CAMS will no longer just let you get a ride home simply bc everybody and their brother will now use that scenario!! He was clearly intoxicated he had no clue where he even was and he LIED instead of being honest about how he even got to Wendy's!!! I'm so sick and tired of hearing a white cop is RACIST bc the have a interaction with a black man. Yes the whole interaction screamed that they were racist cops just out to kill him. It's more likely he feared going back to prison vs omg I'm going to die if they get cuffs on me....that's INSANELY ludicrous!!! THE MAN FOUGHT 2 COPS MANAGED TO GET A TASER FROM ONE AND TAKE OFF RUNNING... WHEN HE TURNED ARND AND FIRED THAT TASER THAT WAS HIS 3RD MASSIVE MISTAKE!!! THAT ACTION IS CONSIDERED DEADLY FORCE ON A OFFICER IN MOST STATES MEANING THE OFFICER HAD EVERY RIGHT TO DEFEND HIS SELF!!! So what your saying is had they just given him a ride home then they would be ok in your book and not be racist but bc this man made all the choices HE MADE oh that means they are racist 😂😂😡
@GINSENG M ROSS idk why my comment got cut in half but anyway....I don't know what plant you are living on or the others that share your same beliefs...there's ridiculous ideas that white people do not experience and encounters from police that either lead to death or any kind of brutality bc darling THEY MOST DEF DO!!! PROFILING ASSUMPTIONS, NO KNOCK WARRANTS YOU NAME IT WE HAVE AND DO!!!! IVE EXPERIENCED FIRST HAND MANY OF THE ABOVE THE DIFF IS ITS NOT REPORTED ON!!! I CONSTANTLY SEE COMMENTS ABOUT WHITE COPS BEING SCARED TO WORK IN BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS AND IF THEY DO THEY ARE TRIGGER HAPPY THATS ABSOLUTELY FALSE! LOOK THERE ARE GOING TO BE BAD PEOPLE IN EVERY SINGLE WALK OF LIFE EVERY PROFESSION BUT YOU CAN'T BLAME ALL PEOPLE FOR THE ACTS OF SOME!!! THIS SITUATION ISN'T LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO GEORGE FLOYD THAT MAN WAS A SORRY POS WHO DESERVES TO ROT FOR WHAT HE DID BUT THAT ALSO DOESN'T MEAN SOMEONE IS RACIST IT COULD MEAN THEY ARE JUST SADISTIC POWER HUNGRY POS!
@GINSENG M ROSS Oh Lord in heaven you went there with the white privilege bs....apparently I lost my card somewhere and damn it somebody needs to return it to its rightful owner. You have NO IDEA the life I have lived nor do you have any idea the things I've seen!!! So bc I'm white that automatically means my life has been smooth sailing and everything has been handed to me on a silver platter 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣... so I also guess that means that you also have "black privilege " stamped across your forehead???? Also since I'm now in a category of a "good caucasian" and we are all going to get "whats coming to us" does that now mean that I should put all "good " black people into a "black panther" category? No bc thats ridiculous!!! I KNOW COMPLETELY WHAT GOES ON AND I KNOW COMPLETELY WHAT IS ONLY SHOWN ON LOCAL NEWS BC IVE EXPERIENCED IT FIRST HAND!!! IF A BLACK OFFICER KILLS A WHITE PERSON OR A WHITE COP KILLS ANOTHER WHITE PERSON IT DOESN'T MAKE MAINSTREAM MEDIA THATS BEEN MY ARGUMENT WITH MANY PEOPLE! MAINSTREAM MEDIA COULD CARELESS BC IT DOESN'T FIT THEIR NARRATIVE! But i absolutely refuse to believe that everyone of any race is to blame bc of the circumstances involving a select group!! My perception of this cases has absolutely nothing to do with race!!! My problem is again labeling someone as a racist simply bc of the situation!!! Do you believe that the black police officers who shoot unarmed white men are also racist? Do i assume that you and all other black people are conscious or have unconscious racial bias? Now with so many people in the BLM of all races and the ones protesting against police departments demanding de-funding or dismantling a department all together...instead of talking about it be about it!!! If even 1% of the above really wanted to see a change then go into law enforcement!!!! BLET doesn't take a huge amount of time to go through!!!! Become one and start that change that your wanting to see!!! Be that spark that works from the inside out!!! That was my goal from the time I was roughly 12 until I was finally able to reach out and touch my dream position but thats not a important factor i guess my white privilege interrupted what i thought my calling was!! How would you feel about segregation of the police based on the communities they work in which is ridiculous to say the least but since so many believe that bc of the areas they live in that they are targets for white police.... would people feel diff if they were only the same race of officers patrolling their neighborhood's? Since you are Oz the great and powerful and we the mere peasants needing to flock to you for guidance (🤣 lmao) what do you think the solution is??? Idk what talking points i missed considering i can't read your comment while typing out mine!
mproducer people get arrested for driving while intoxicated you fucking ignorant ass. Maybe the cops would of let him sleep it off at the police station and released in the morning to make sure he didn’t take another vehicle later while intoxicated and killed someone. People need to kill themselves defending Mr Brooks actions.
mproducer but did Brooks really had to run, giving him an Uber in his drunk state and his past on abuse, I don’t really think that’s a good idea, for all I know he could’ve attacked the Uber driver or beat his kids when he got home An arrest seems like the most logical way of handling the situation, plus the cops didn’t tase him when they did the arrest, they tased him when he resisted arrest and started escaping
I knew something was up with this officer file lists 12 incidents, composed of five vehicle "accidents", four citizen complaints, and three involving firearms. Another example let’s praise a bad officer
@Jesus Christ Official No I really don’t, if it’s to try and defend Rayshard for trying to kill an officer than idk. All I see is someone trying to say everyone is shitty and that’s how it is.
Jesus Christ Official where did you hear that on cnn! I thought they didn’t know police incedance that what they want to know that’s not public knowledge and so what who said that his racist lawyers!
The DA is a disgrace to his profession. Neither officer should have been charged. A proper investigation should have been conducted .Its nothing more than a response from a man with political ambitions trying to further his own ends.
Glad this cop has what seems to be a very intelligent and brave attorney. Brave for speaking out when in this age having the wrong opinion will get you doxxed and harassed.
What messed up these cops, '' SO CALLED GOOD JOB, was when officer Rolfe kicked Mr Brooks in the head after he was shot and fell to the ground; And officer Bronsnan stood on Mr Brooks.It's like having a pure glass of water to serve but before you serve it you put a drop or kick of poison into it.

DA is so bias he lost all credibility when he said why didn't they just let Rayshard walk home. You don't let DUI suspects just walk home! I can't believe this DA.
OMG the conduct of the police officer was exemplary. This is how we want all cops to act and treat us. Anyone who calls this cop guilty for racial or political reasons needs to reconsider where their integrity lies. If I was cop in this violent neighbourhood Id quit if that was the attitude of the DA. Disgraceful.
Why mention the word violent. When the guy was a sleep in his car, and offered too walk home. Where was the violence? ... And I truly hope a lot of the cops that think like you do quit. We don’t need those types of people patrolling the streets.

I think some of you need to watch the video again, this time open your eyes... resisting arrest, taking the taser and shooting at the cop.... and you still think there was no Justification... you must be on drugs... there are Laws against that shit... Come on man ... Be Real..
Another idiot. I will type this slowly so your lack of brains can catch up. Police officers carry guns. If an unarmed person is fighting and resisting arrest they can steal the gun from the officer. You do understand police have been killed by their own weapon. Seeing this fool grabbed a cops taser showed he was capable and willing to take a cops weapon. That raises a cops level of fear for their life and justice leathal force.
LoLHaHa1981 It's not about him being scared of dying from the taser you dipshit. It's about him being incapacitated from the taser and having his gun taken then being killed. Does that make enough since to you little buddy? I bet you interrupt adults a lot when they're talking.....don't you?
jfsfrnd this is not the attorney for Garrett Rolfe which is the officer who shot him.. this is the attorney for the other officer involved..this officer didn’t do anything wrong.. you need to pay more attention or actually watch the bodycam footage

On this one...I’m in favor of the cops, both of them. Mr. Brooks would be alive if he didn’t resist arrest, battered the two officer, took the taser from officer and used it against them. To the Brooks family I dare you not to take any money from the city out of morality.
They shouldnt have charged them period. The cop was well within his rights to shoot him. They dont just shoot to injure that would put them in more danger.

I agree the officer did everything right. That man should have listened and not grabbed the officers taser. Ridiculous. Officer should be free and clear
God Bless you officer Devin. I'm sorry you have to go thought this. There are some people in this country that still believe in the rule of law and the officers who enforce it. Gods Speed sir.
Raymond Barber not most of America, the only ones still boot licking bay the conservatives who buy guns to defend themselves from a tyrannical government who are ironically unaware that police are the murderous group of the government
I agree that Mr. Brosnan did not commit a crime and should not have been charged. But police need to be trained different than they are. His first instinct should not have been to further subdue the man. He knew that the only weapon that Mr. Brooks was in possession of was a taser. He also knew Mr. Brooks has been shot. His FIRST action should have been to give first aid to Mr Brooks. And, although Mr. Brosnan's conduct makes him a despicable human being, it does dot make him a criminal.
EstrellaÁngel17 the officers life was in danger I do not understand how you and other people don’t get that. If the taser made contact then he had access to the officers service weapon. That breaks the use of force continuum
@@negligentned8771 The guy ran away. The police shot him. In no way those officers' lives were in danger. The office who shot him was just trigger happy.

W Towns it isn’t, a cop has the potential of going to the death chair, his step mom got fired from her job, his partner was told to testify against him without his agreement It isn’t a haha funny joke it’s literal bullshit, Rolfes partner didn’t do anything and yet he is charged with 3 felonies
Let’s be honest. They were only charged for political reasons and recent events
And to keep Atlanta from being set on fire.
You're correct. Recent events including but not limited to executing Rayshard Brooks in the back.

@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP Okay. If you say so.
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP Chew on this fella.
For those who may be inclined to judge the Atlanta PD officers in the Brooks shooting, here's some legal information:
APD SHOOTING EXPLAINED
Before reading below, remember that officers are afforded the same constitutional rights a citizens, so whether they’re charged for political reasons or not, the facts of the case remain the same until their day in court:
In order to understand this situation, you’ve got to set feelings and emotions aside to understand objective reasonableness.
So looking at this case, what do we know?
A DUI investigation determined that he was too intoxicated to drive. The bodycam showed the officers being overly nice and polite to him the entire time all the way up until the handcuffs were about to go on, as they should’ve been.
As soon as they tried to cuff him, an all out brawl took place. Not just resisting, but punching them in the face and throwing them around.
He took one officer’s taser, threw him face first into the asphalt, stood up, and took off.
_____________
So let’s pause there and see where we’re at legally.
Charges:
DUI
Obstruction X2 - Felony
Battery on an officer X2
Aggravated assault X2 - Felony
Strong Armed Robbery - Felony
And believe it or not....
Possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime - Felony
Per Georgia Law, a taser is classified as a “less-lethal” FIREARM as they do occasionally cause death.
(OCGA 16-11-106)
________________
These offenses are important because there is a case law called Tennessee v Garner
What Tennessee v Garner states is:
“When a non-violent felon is ordered to stop and submit to police, ignoring that order does not give rise to a reasonable good-faith belief that the use of deadly force is necessary, UNLESS it has been threatened.”
So this goes back to the taser being classified as a firearm that can cause death or great bodily harm.
___________
So,
They fought
He stole the taser
He got up and ran
The 2nd officer chased after him and tried to use his own taser against him, but he didn’t get a good connection.
Brooks then turns, aims the taser at the officer, and fires. Statutorily, this is no different than firing a gun.
(The taser that APD carries has 2 cartridges, so Brooks could have potentially shot the officer twice.)
The officer dropped his taser from his left hand after it appears he was hit by a barb on the video, draws his sidearm, fires 3 shots, falls against a car in the parking lot and Brooks goes down.
Brooks was not only a continuing threat to the officer since he could still fire the taser again, but he also showed and EXTREME desire to get away, with a weapon. So it is not unreasonable to have the fear that he would use that weapon to carjack a motorist sitting in the drive-thru line, take a hostage, or otherwise hurt another innocent party.
What does Georgia Law say about deadly force?
OCGA 17-4-20 (b):
“1. Sheriffs and peace officers may use deadly force:
1.) to apprehend a suspected felon only when the officer reasonably believes that the suspect possesses a deadly weapon. (He did)
2.) to apprehend a suspected felon who possesses any object, device, or instrument which, when used offensively against a person, is likely to or actually does result in serious bodily injury. (He did)
3.) to apprehend a suspected felon when the officer reasonably believes that the suspect poses an immediate threat of physical violence to the officer or others (He did)
4.) to apprehend a suspected felon when there is probable cause to believe that the suspect has committed a crime involving the infliction or threatened infliction of serious physical harm (He did)
The officer only needed one of those requirements, but he had all 4........
Now the reason taser’s are considered “less-lethal” is because when used appropriately, you are “less likely” to kill someone vs using a gun. But Brooks hasn’t been through the training to know how to avoid certain vulnerable parts of the body, and he doesn’t understand how neuromuscular incapacitation (NMI) works, which makes it MORE likely for him to cause great bodily injury or death than if an officer used it.
And just to support the fact that tasers can and do kill, there is an East Point Officer currently sitting in prison for improperly using a taser and killing a man a few years ago.
(Eberhart v Georgia)
“He could’ve shot him in the leg!”
Right off the top, it is unconstitutional to do so. It is considered cruel and unusual punishment to employ a gun in that manner. Either an officer felt deadly force was necessary, or he should use a lesser response.
We could just leave it at that, but that's too much of a cop out, so let's discuss WHY it has been deemed unconstitutional. For one thing, that's an extremely difficult shot to make. The target is quite narrow, and in continuous motion as the suspect runs away/charges the officer. Under the best of conditions trying to hit the leg is challenging...to be generous about it. But in a life or death encounter, the officer's fine motor skills will be eroded by the stress of the encounter making the shot, turning a leg shot into a very low probability feat.
Assuming a round does hit the leg, then what? The only way a shot to the leg would immediately stop a threat is by shattering one of the bones, and stopping the threat is the ultimate goal. While it is very difficult to find a shot to the leg that will immediately stop a threat, it is actually comparatively easy to find shots to the leg which eventually prove fatal. Human legs have very large blood vessels which are essentially unprotected (femoral artery)
Now remember, we’ve had days to sit back, watch videos, discuss, and analyze this entire thing. The officers had less than a minute from the time the fight started, and less than 5 seconds to interpret EVERYTHING you just read while running, getting shot at with a taser, and returning fire.

He was DUI, failed a sobriety test, failed a breathalyzer, resisted arrest,
gave an officer a cuncussion, punched an officer in the face, wrestled an officer to the ground, stole a deadly weapon (Georgia law, read it and learn, or stay finite)
He turned and fired the deadly weapon at the officers head. The officer fired his gun in self defense, not the taser. Why not taser? Because Brooks stole the taser. Tasers sound exactly like a gun- because they're both deadly.
And you owe me an apology, for your failure to educate yourself before speaking, while on American soil. Which is provided to you by Police Officers and Veterans who risk their lives to protect your small minded existence.
Next time you call 911 and an officer comes to save your sorry 'hide, you stand at attention, salute them and thank them for having enough backbone for the both of you.
.....next.
@Rab Lewin the officer followed police procedures that are in writing for their department. If a suspect takes your taser, firearm, or baton you are authorized to use deadly force. If you don't like the law that's fine but he followed procedure to the tee. He'll be acquitted and sue in civil court.

if somebody was firing a Taser at you, would you would invite him over to your house to talk about it?
If that's the case why didn't the officer use the same amount of force??? He still had his taser so why did he put the taser in his left hand then pull out the gun with his right? And he did it PRIOR to the taser being pointed at him. He was pissed he had just lost a fight in front of a lot of people who were waiting to order a burger.

He feels desperate and kills your child and wife. All because you thought racial injustice is the issue instead of a man who caused his own demise. But at least he's still here, right?

@JORDAN G BUT IS IT TRUE❓
JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE CHARGED WITH A CRIME, DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT IS TRUE ❗
HAPPENS EVERY DAY.
No if you watch all the different angles he doesn’t do anything illegal until he kicked him after shooting at him(The only way I can really see felony murder is if they tried to treat this as him just shooting mr.brooks in the back for no reason)
It's because he changed hands with his Taser before Brooks ever fired the Taser. So, he had already decided he was going to shoot his pistol BEFOREHAND. I'M sure that's where the felony charges came from......he switched his Taser to his shooting hand.
Only reason he is charged is because the victim is black that's the only reason
Just some Guy What video shows him kicking him? All I saw was a a still shot. Maybe the cops kicked the taser away from Brooks.
They're hangin' him out to dry for their own shortfalls and political life,the American people better wake up.
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP fucked up situation but justified shoot, he wasn't running away when he turned around and fired Taser at the cop. I hope he gets off
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP first off you say your sick of racism but must use the phrase"you people" second its a justified shoot. only way he gets convicted is by a bias jury that doesnt look at the evidence. Georgia law states a taser is a deadly weapon this officer didnt write that law. just 2 weeks ago this DA prosecuted and officer for using a deadly weapon which was a taser. now suddenly a criminal uses it and its referred to as non lethal? play stupid games win stupid prizes had he not shot that taser at the officer hes most likely still breathing and serving time for resisting arrest
@GLADIATOR SHI'AR MVP well I'm giving myopinion whether you care or not, mate, you.seem.to be the one trolling people lol 😀 and the only Nazis I see are the rioters wanting to tear down statutes, burn books and rewrite movies mate.

@Akeel Taylor homegirl tasers the police officer. Homegirl then has access to that officer's service weapon. Meanwhile the police officer's partner whose Taser homegirl stole is still suffering a concussion from homegirl's physical assault. Homegirl stole the taser and ran with it. Homegirl did not drop the taser after resisting arrest and assaulting the police officer but instead carried it with him and attempted to shoot the police officer who was chasing him. Homegirl was a fault. Had homegirl had been raised by good parents homegirl would have taken responsibility for the DUI and accepted the arrest like a normal person but that did not happen.
This is ludicrous! This officer is being punished for doing his job as required! We need to support officers right now not perform a witch hunt on them!
Society is going to be screwed if we keep throwing the police officers away indiscriminantly. I dought this guy will get a fair trial.
Killing unarmed person is a crime regardless of the circumstances. Police can only use deadly force when their and other life are in danger. In this case the suspect's committed not only a minor crime but was running away from the police and was shot in the back.
Yohannes Berhe are you dumb? He wasn’t unarmed. And even if someone is unarmed they can still pose a threat. And a minor crime? More people are killed by people driving under the influence then cops shooting people and you saying DUI is a minor crime? On top of that he assaulted both police officers and took a weapon from them. He’s committing more crimes in the process.
he was not unarmed, he stole the officers tazer and shot it at him and fought the officers.
@@yohannesberhe4859 He wasnt unarmed he had the officers taser and in the state of GA a taser is a deadly weapon and he chose to fire it at them. And rayshard did not commit a minor crime this was his second DUI and a violation of his probation there was no way he was getting off with a warning he was going to jail.
He was doing what he was trained to do. He did nothing that could in any way be seen as inappropriate

JJ the situation should have been easily contained. First mistake was to allow the guy to park the car safely whilst being intoxicated.The office should have parked the car and taken the keys. He agreed to the test and was found to be intoxicated. Let him rest in the car , and attempted to get a friend or relative to drive him back home or alternatively given the guy a lift home. Charged him with drink driving !!! Many police forces across the planet deal with the situation in that fashion. They do not use deadly force.Please acknowledge that there is a problem with policing in the states!,
@@raviselliah2027 there is a problem. But how are you gonna arrest the cop for literally enforcing the law? It is completely within the cop's power to kill a man using a tazer. You can't just arrest someone for violating a law that doesn't exist.
Most of Americans are Shocked that they charged the police officer. I watched the full video. This cop was nothing but polite and easy going with Mr. Brooks until he had no choice. He should be acquitted and then sue the shit out of the city of Atlanta.
Most legal analysts who have been interviewed regarding this case say he will be acquitted. They say the evidence speaks for itself - from a legal perspective that is. It's unfortunate that most people here are speaking from a highly charged, emotional perspective - what makes it worse is that they don't know the law and how it works. I don't even know the law, but that's the reason why I can't get so charged about it. In my "opinion" just from watching the video the cop did nothing wrong; legal opinions of many legal analysts say he acted in accordance with the law. The DA's choice to charge him with murder was purely a political move.
Brooks was on probation after having spent 7 years in prison for beating his kids so badly they ended up in the hospital. When you are on probation you MUST be on your best behavior. Well, he got drunk and then drove drunk to the restaurant where he passed out at the drive through window while waiting for his food. Drinking and driving is illegal. One time, when my husband was young he was driving under the influence. They took him to jail where he spent the night in a cell for his own protection and the protection of others on the road. The laws were a little different then so I don't know what else happened to him - it was long before I met him. But my husband complied and all went well. He never made that stupid mistake again. Brooks knew that if they took him in for driving drunk they would have found out that he violated parole. That's why he went haywire and stole the cops taser. He didn't want to go back to prison.

Then the DA has to nerve to show two photos instead of the actual video of the cops supposedly desecrating the body. There's a reason why the video was edited out. Just like what the news media does. Edit out the important parts so society can rage out on inaccurate details

I know that is right
As much as I do not like the police that cop is absolutely innocent he gave that man so many chances to be decent and straight upand was rewarded by this coward running away and attempting to shoot him with a taser

The problem is you can’t prove that they’re racist. There’s not enough data and information to prove that police brutality is a result of racism. This issue with George Floyd and Mr. Brooks is a matter of police brutality not racism. And even if it is racism the problem is you can’t prove it. Racism is an issue that is a matter of the heart, only God knows your true intent. Now unless there’s previous records of him saying racial slurs or saying crap about immigrants and black people then I would say it’s most likely racism. But at this point there’s no racism to prove.
@Taipan 1 2 3 , Oh really? We have a man drunk behind the wheel, who attacks both cops, with a record a mile long, attempts to Taze a cop, after the cops were as polite as possible. In your twisted world the cops were racist, in mine they did their jobs to protect themselves and the good people (if there are any left) of Atlanta.

@@alfredomagana9728 people don't understand this. And if he would have killed someone else after the police would be liable for it and have to deal with knowing they could of stopped it.
I used to work at a sobering center, aka drunk tank. The drunks that the officers would bring in would make claims like "I was close to my house" and then vomit and stumble to their mats. So the left's claims that the perp in this case could have walked home is not just ridiculous, but dangerous as well. That DA needs to go.
He clearly didn't even know where he was. If he walked off and later found dead it would of been on the police for letting him go.
@@kermitdafrog8 So, it's better to just kill him rather than letting him killing himself? I swear you guys are the dumbest.

No, you can't put your hands on a police officer but should the punishment for fighting with a police officer and taking one of their tasers be instant death?
The DA 100% arrested the 2nd officer to put pressure on him to testify against the arresting officer who fired the fatal shots. It may not be fair, but the same is done to hundreds citizens every day....almost like something like that should be reviewed and possibly changed....
Tyler Simmons Yes you can. We’re supposed to be free people. If y’all want to bow to authority that’s on you. I’ll be fighting.
@@Mutation_D We are arguing the same side here. Policing in America needs a reform.
It is not okay to flee and resist arrest, and it is not okay for a police officer to shoot a citizen who isn't threatening his life or the lives of innocent bystanders; these things don't have to be mutually exclusive and one (resisting arrest) does not automatically justify the other (shooting someone in the back). Mr. Brooks was in the wrong to try and flee, he was in the wrong to fight against the police officers; however, he DID NOT deserve to have lethal force used against him and he DID NOT deserve to die.

I can whole heartedly say that George Floyd shouldn't have died. He should have been arrested for criminal activity and processed and let out after he went thru that process. Rayshard Brooks fought the cops and took a weapon from them and pointed it at them, after being so intoxicated he couldn't stay awake in the drive thru. Rayshard Brooks made a choice to endanger his life. He lost. Think about that folks. I have been pulled over and complied with the police in every way. I went thru the process and I'm alive and free today. That is the choice I made. If you make the choice to fight with a cop, one that is trying to keep the roads safe from people driving drunk killing innocent people, then you endanger your life and the cops. It is the wrong choice that Rayshard Brooks made. I"m behind George Floyd in the Minnesota case and I'm behind these Atlanta officers here. No Charges period. They were doing what I as a citizen want them to do.
Are you white or black sir? I can officially ask this question during these times without having to hear you say "why does that matter?" "That is so racist." "I don't see color." You are refusing to see the issues we have in this country and wanna act like some martyr who had to fast for forty days to come to such a conclusion that in no way shape or form can be argued. Well no, you seem like a nice guy, but you are sleeping under a rock. Blacks are 2.5 times more likely to get arrested than whites yet make only 13% of the population. Blacks have been dying three times more than whites due to coronavirus yet they are only 13% of the population.

The DA should be getting charged
Officer Rolfe is a hero. He should be given a medal.
It is pretty clear from the video that Brooks own actions led to his death and the only reason why this officer is being charged is a resUlt of the present anti- police tide after the Floyd incident. In fact, Brooks woUld still be alive today had he not went back to sleep after the officer told Brooks to leave after his initial encoUnter.
They are liers they are doing this for political reasons. If he didn’t resist he would have been done he didn’t want to go back to jail in DUI cause he’s had issues with the police and been in jail before so he is not innocent please
Why are you resisting cop? STOP resisting cop, STOP resisting. Now kneel down and surrender to the will of the ppl.
@Steelerz Reign Supreme watch the body cam footage.
Strangely disarming an arresting officer of his taser and trying to shoot him with it is okay? The other office is already hurt and down, how dose the officer know that his life is not in jeopardy if he get incapacitated by the taser? Yes it's a non lethal weapon but you don't know know the actions of the person who is willing to fight police if he is incapacitated.
For over 40 minutes both officers engage this man with respect and dignity. Even empathetic and friendly at times. No malice or Ill intent was shown this man.
Resisting arrest & removing the policeman's taser caused his death.
On the other side of this, let's say the first cop let him park and left him alone... He wakes up 30 minutes later and drives away... Maybe causing a car wreck killing a black family of 5 on their way home. Maybe your family would be the victims. Then we would say the office failed to do his job? At what point are people responsible for their own actions? Actions of impaired driving, resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer, disarming a police officer, giving a concussion to a police officer, fleeing with police taser, shooting taser at police, witch if these actions do we as society say is acceptable? When is it reasonable to say stop resisting and comply? Is that not why we have courts? Had he complied, he would be here today.
George Floyd's arrest and death had similar interaction where Floyed coperated with police until they tried to put him in the car. The difference is Floyd, handcuffed posed no threat to the officers and the tactic of kneeling on his neck was excessive and unwarranted. The office had his hand in his pocket, totally relaxed as he contributed to Floyd's death.
BUT what if Floyd just got in the car without resisting? Think about that for a minute.... He got in the car, no resisting and the officer doesn't use the excessive force, he's still alive, he goes to court and gets off because maybe he didn't know the $20 bill was fake, and the state can't prove he did.
We don't have looting, riots that burned down homes and places of business, innocent people getting killed by rioters. Just think how one man's actions can affect so many.

@@arthurmorgan4942 Deadly force is not about if the target deserves to die but if the one using it has reasonable fear of imminent bodily harm or death.
Being drunk doesn't mean someone is easier to handle. He was inebriated enough to not be able to legally drive.
He pointed the thing that looks like a gun at a person and training and Instinct comes in to shoot at the person that pointed a gun like object at them.
You're asking officers to have RoboCop like reflexes to know with absolute certainty that what he was pointing at the time was just a taser instead of a gun and even if it was just a taser and they knew it a cop being tased risks a cop being incapacitated and an assailant who could then get the officer's firearm.
I have never heard before this June hysteria people being so dumb as to imply that people who commit DUIs just be escorted home. It's a crime. you get arrested. You're effectively asking cops always be on guard to expect any black person be an imminent violent threat if they don't coddle them emotionally to extreme lengths. Combine that with your expectations of inhuman reflexes and processing of white cops and you just got 21st century White Man's Burden racism.
You have all this after the fact assessment that is infantilizing of mr. Brooks. There is no tragedy here that isn't entirely his fault.
Don't drink and drive but if you do expect to be arrested. Don't resist arrest but if you do don't let it rise to the level of assaulting cops and stealing their weapons. Don't assault cops with weapons. Don't assault cops at all. This isn't a difficult concept.
All of the anger at this is entirely unjustified And the emotions of anyone other than his immediate family are completely unwarranted.
Arthur Morgan Yes I agree this could have been avoided, if Brooks complied with his arrest. This man had a background of abusing his children and they got him on a DUI. They were simply telling him to turn around and comply with being arrested. Brooks resisted, then got loose and began to beat and punch both cops. After stealing the taser from the officer, he ran. The officer chased him and Brooks turned around and tried to fire the taser (considered a deadly weapon) at the officer. The officer reacted in a way he should have. This was justified in all ways. Brooks was the one who made this incident violent. Officers act based on the tone and mood of the civilian.

I agree but the only charge i see is:

I'm so sick and tired of hearing a white cop is RACIST bc the have a interaction with a black man. Yes the whole interaction screamed that they were racist cops just out to kill him. It's more likely he feared going back to prison vs omg I'm going to die if they get cuffs on me....that's INSANELY ludicrous!!! THE MAN FOUGHT 2 COPS MANAGED TO GET A TASER FROM ONE AND TAKE OFF RUNNING... WHEN HE TURNED ARND AND FIRED THAT TASER THAT WAS HIS 3RD MASSIVE MISTAKE!!! THAT ACTION IS CONSIDERED DEADLY FORCE ON A OFFICER IN MOST STATES MEANING THE OFFICER HAD EVERY RIGHT TO DEFEND HIS SELF!!! So what your saying is had they just given him a ride home then they would be ok in your book and not be racist but bc this man made all the choices HE MADE oh that means they are racist 😂😂😡
@GINSENG M ROSS idk why my comment got cut in half but anyway....I don't know what plant you are living on or the others that share your same beliefs...there's ridiculous ideas that white people do not experience and encounters from police that either lead to death or any kind of brutality bc darling THEY MOST DEF DO!!! PROFILING ASSUMPTIONS, NO KNOCK WARRANTS YOU NAME IT WE HAVE AND DO!!!! IVE EXPERIENCED FIRST HAND MANY OF THE ABOVE THE DIFF IS ITS NOT REPORTED ON!!! I CONSTANTLY SEE COMMENTS ABOUT WHITE COPS BEING SCARED TO WORK IN BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS AND IF THEY DO THEY ARE TRIGGER HAPPY THATS ABSOLUTELY FALSE! LOOK THERE ARE GOING TO BE BAD PEOPLE IN EVERY SINGLE WALK OF LIFE EVERY PROFESSION BUT YOU CAN'T BLAME ALL PEOPLE FOR THE ACTS OF SOME!!! THIS SITUATION ISN'T LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO GEORGE FLOYD THAT MAN WAS A SORRY POS WHO DESERVES TO ROT FOR WHAT HE DID BUT THAT ALSO DOESN'T MEAN SOMEONE IS RACIST IT COULD MEAN THEY ARE JUST SADISTIC POWER HUNGRY POS!
@GINSENG M ROSS white privilege is a myth
@GINSENG M ROSS Oh Lord in heaven you went there with the white privilege bs....apparently I lost my card somewhere and damn it somebody needs to return it to its rightful owner. You have NO IDEA the life I have lived nor do you have any idea the things I've seen!!! So bc I'm white that automatically means my life has been smooth sailing and everything has been handed to me on a silver platter 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣... so I also guess that means that you also have "black privilege " stamped across your forehead???? Also since I'm now in a category of a "good caucasian" and we are all going to get "whats coming to us" does that now mean that I should put all "good " black people into a "black panther" category? No bc thats ridiculous!!! I KNOW COMPLETELY WHAT GOES ON AND I KNOW COMPLETELY WHAT IS ONLY SHOWN ON LOCAL NEWS BC IVE EXPERIENCED IT FIRST HAND!!! IF A BLACK OFFICER KILLS A WHITE PERSON OR A WHITE COP KILLS ANOTHER WHITE PERSON IT DOESN'T MAKE MAINSTREAM MEDIA THATS BEEN MY ARGUMENT WITH MANY PEOPLE! MAINSTREAM MEDIA COULD CARELESS BC IT DOESN'T FIT THEIR NARRATIVE! But i absolutely refuse to believe that everyone of any race is to blame bc of the circumstances involving a select group!! My perception of this cases has absolutely nothing to do with race!!! My problem is again labeling someone as a racist simply bc of the situation!!! Do you believe that the black police officers who shoot unarmed white men are also racist? Do i assume that you and all other black people are conscious or have unconscious racial bias? Now with so many people in the BLM of all races and the ones protesting against police departments demanding de-funding or dismantling a department all together...instead of talking about it be about it!!! If even 1% of the above really wanted to see a change then go into law enforcement!!!! BLET doesn't take a huge amount of time to go through!!!! Become one and start that change that your wanting to see!!! Be that spark that works from the inside out!!! That was my goal from the time I was roughly 12 until I was finally able to reach out and touch my dream position but thats not a important factor i guess my white privilege interrupted what i thought my calling was!! How would you feel about segregation of the police based on the communities they work in which is ridiculous to say the least but since so many believe that bc of the areas they live in that they are targets for white police.... would people feel diff if they were only the same race of officers patrolling their neighborhood's? Since you are Oz the great and powerful and we the mere peasants needing to flock to you for guidance (🤣 lmao) what do you think the solution is??? Idk what talking points i missed considering i can't read your comment while typing out mine!
@@ElizaDolittle you are exactly correct!!! There is always a hypocritical double standard!!!!
I just want to know what's the counter lawsuit and how rich the officer will be.
I hope he gets a fatty check and a years worth of steak paid for by the DA and the mayor themselves
Devon was doing his job, he seems like one of the good guys, and I think it is terrible to ruin his life and career over this. On sense.
Devon, George Zimmerman,the Ferguson cop just to name a few. Lives ruined thanks to Al Sharpstone and the ilk.
I know he was very professional at his job and had ALOT of patients for drunken brooks
Fck you pigs lover
Good luck officer's, good shoot in my books.
I agree
Mutant savages are only consistent with cowardly weapons.
Honestly anyone involved in charging this man should be thrown in jail, it’s crazy you can destroy a mans life for politics
The cop hit his head luckily he's alive to talk about it.
Just like that cop that got beaten with a metal chair within a inch of his life. Same fuckheads wanted to claim that wasn't a justified shooting.
mproducer people get arrested for driving while intoxicated you fucking ignorant ass. Maybe the cops would of let him sleep it off at the police station and released in the morning to make sure he didn’t take another vehicle later while intoxicated and killed someone. People need to kill themselves defending Mr Brooks actions.
I hope the cop gets at least life in prison ! Maybe his ego will be shrunk by then!
@mproducer Exactly, I agree with you, most perfect way to help in this kind of case. Well said.
mproducer but did Brooks really had to run, giving him an Uber in his drunk state and his past on abuse, I don’t really think that’s a good idea, for all I know he could’ve attacked the Uber driver or beat his kids when he got home
An arrest seems like the most logical way of handling the situation, plus the cops didn’t tase him when they did the arrest, they tased him when he resisted arrest and started escaping
I knew something was up with this guy he was on parole for beating his kids. Another example let’s praise a bad dude
I knew something was up with this officer file lists 12 incidents, composed of five vehicle "accidents", four citizen complaints, and three involving firearms. Another example let’s praise a bad officer
@Jesus Christ Official And your point is what?
@@northstarsboy148 u know my point dont pretend
@Jesus Christ Official No I really don’t, if it’s to try and defend Rayshard for trying to kill an officer than idk. All I see is someone trying to say everyone is shitty and that’s how it is.
Jesus Christ Official where did you hear that on cnn! I thought they didn’t know police incedance that what they want to know that’s not public knowledge and so what who said that his racist lawyers!
The DA should lose his job. Oh and lose his sexual assault case so the people he put behind bars can sexually assault him.
The DA is a disgrace to his profession. Neither officer should have been charged.
A proper investigation should have been conducted .Its nothing more than a response from a man with political ambitions trying to further his own ends.
Policemen not guilty
Glad this cop has what seems to be a very intelligent and brave attorney. Brave for speaking out when in this age having the wrong opinion will get you doxxed and harassed.
I pray these officers get the best representation for doing their job. Keep your heads up.
What messed up these cops, '' SO CALLED GOOD JOB, was when officer Rolfe kicked Mr Brooks in the head after he was shot and fell to the ground;
And officer Bronsnan stood on Mr Brooks.It's like having a pure glass of water to serve but before you serve it you put a drop or kick of poison into it.
@@ronibluerey7654 The DA said that officer Rolfe kicked Mr Rolfe in the head after shooting him and officer Bronsnan stood on Mr Brooks body before givine him aid. ua-cam.com/video/RcYheKZ4sb4/v-deo.html
Their hearts were pure evil i hope they serve their time like anyone else
CHECK OUT THE OFFICIAL LINK THAT SHOWS OFFICER ROLFE IS INNOCENT. GO DONATE HERE! ALREADY 200K+ RAISED FOR HIM! www.georgialeo.org/post/apd?fbclid=IwAR2IR12t9HiV86YEycfpnkMZ8Z0icBA1DtDOFFS87dg51FPagYyN8G5M_qI
Why Didn't he listen to the police orders. All lives matter not just black lives
The charges are so bogus, this is an absolutely disgusting injustice to these officers. Anyone with half a brain can see what’s going on here if they get all the facts.
I saw the video. This DA should be ashamed of himself.
Rachel Hale fck you pig lover
Wonder why the DA didnt mention the injury to the officer/s ?????
Because the DA is an asshole
They what to stay in that position as long as possible so go with the trend
Because it doesn’t fit his narrative. DA is flat-out making s%#& UP!
They're white, who cares.
DA is so bias he lost all credibility when he said why didn't they just let Rayshard walk home. You don't let DUI suspects just walk home! I can't believe this DA.
OMG the conduct of the police officer was exemplary. This is how we want all cops to act and treat us. Anyone who calls this cop guilty for racial or political reasons needs to reconsider where their integrity lies. If I was cop in this violent neighbourhood Id quit if that was the attitude of the DA. Disgraceful.
Why mention the word violent. When the guy was a sleep in his car, and offered too walk home. Where was the violence? ... And I truly hope a lot of the cops that think like you do quit. We don’t need those types of people patrolling the streets.
@@misterimo9087 PS go and watch the 43 minute video of the arrest if you can be bothered seeing the truth. Might change your ridiculous opinion.
geeetube seen it. And the fact that you can watch that and not see that it shouldn’t have went that way.
@@misterimo9087 and your comment my friend is EXACTLY why the world has the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS. And it will always be that way ;)
Theres those who DONT except mediocrity and they excel and then there you who accepts mediocrity. Its just life.
LOL you probably wanted him to walk home...yet he didnt even know where he was. He thought he was in 3 different counties. Hilarious dude. Hey good luck to you man.
Maybe if you defund Police you'll get it your way and you can sit behind a drunk black guy in drive thru for hours coz you got nothin else to do. ANd of COURSE theres nothing dangerous about a guy so drunk he passes out in his car right? But then we all know who'd you be calling if he was driving and hit and killed your mamma. The hypocrisy is mind boggling.
I think some of you need to watch the video again, this time open your eyes... resisting arrest, taking the taser and shooting at the cop.... and you still think there was no Justification... you must be on drugs... there are Laws against that shit... Come on man ... Be Real..
Me. Brooks is guilty, not the officers! Me. Brooks assaulted the officers!!
Me: "THROW THESE PIECE OF FILTH STINKIN' COPS UNDER THE PRISON!" "THROW AWAY THE KEY AS WELL!"
No charges need . Mr brooks made it a deadly situation
Why was he charged? Because the system loves spending our tax money for nothing and because some black people were mad.
Don’t break the law it won’t break you
Stfu twice
😂😂😂😂What about George, Brianna, etc. Did they break the law?
Yes the cop broke the law it is called an execution
Rwynn Christian yes, they sure did actually.
@@susanb5058 I hope you're proud of yourself.
How stupid, they padded him down and knew he wasn't armed.
Until he took a weapon from the officers. Apparently you havent seen the videos.
Another idiot. I will type this slowly so your lack of brains can catch up. Police officers carry guns. If an unarmed person is fighting and resisting arrest they can steal the gun from the officer. You do understand police have been killed by their own weapon. Seeing this fool grabbed a cops taser showed he was capable and willing to take a cops weapon. That raises a cops level of fear for their life and justice leathal force.
"padded" him huh?
@BigBlack ok internet tough guy.
LoLHaHa1981 It's not about him being scared of dying from the taser you dipshit. It's about him being incapacitated from the taser and having his gun taken then being killed. Does that make enough since to you little buddy? I bet you interrupt adults a lot when they're talking.....don't you?
This officer didn’t even do anything?! These charges are absurd
@jfsfrnd the one that popped of a tazer on a cop?
@@BlitzkriegRap its not lethal. It the gun is. And as you can see the guy was running away not trying to fight
jfsfrnd this is not the attorney for Garrett Rolfe which is the officer who shot him.. this is the attorney for the other officer involved..this officer didn’t do anything wrong.. you need to pay more attention or actually watch the bodycam footage
@@eatheadshots3160 officers have been smoked out too many times by a dude that appears to just be running away and they are not taking any chances anymore. This dude doesn't care about nobody, this a type of dude that would run you over drunk and speed away zero fucks given.
Thank you to those who serve and protect and put their lives on the line every day!!!!
I agree, as long as you exclude the cold-blooded murderers.
Free those officers, they did nothing wrong
Was he not fighting officers! So sad..as a black AMERICAN I'm embarrassed..this is our best to stand up for!!!!
U watch red elephants?
I'm not sure you're watching the same video as the rest of us.
There are plenty of people ready to raise funds to help these officers. When the fund raising begins we will all start giving. I will absolutely be donating.
On this one...I’m in favor of the cops, both of them. Mr. Brooks would be alive if he didn’t resist arrest, battered the two officer, took the taser from officer and used it against them. To the Brooks family I dare you not to take any money from the city out of morality.
They over charged and that is going to be a problem.
How is a problem. Explain...
They shouldnt have charged them period. The cop was well within his rights to shoot him. They dont just shoot to injure that would put them in more danger.
Grace Nakanyike890 because once the grand jury declines to indict and they get no billed, the wonderful buttholes of Atlanta are gonna burn the city down🙂
@Grace Nakanyike890 When a person is overcharged, the charges will not stick. And if the charges are dropped or they are found not guilty of those charges, the people of Atlanta will throw a temper tantrum and it will be George Floyd 2.0. They overcharged George Zimmerman n the Travon Martin case.
Facts bro you know the game. And charging him wrong in purpose so he can get off.
The DA wants to punt this topic and push it off on the jury when they are found innocent. The DA should definitely be replaced.
This all political this officer’s did there job I saw the body cam footage they were respectful and patient they should get released
@Vanessa Ellis lmao off... you're funny...u were joking right?
Save your energy for the court, We all know how your client did nothing wrong but defend himself.
That District Attorney should be fired and charged!
The DA is a disgrace!!!!
The CHARGES against the police officers are BOGUS!!!
I'm glad you spoke up and presented this.
When you point a weapon at a cop your playing Russian roulette ..
John Vargas *you're
Vanessa Ellis So if someone points a weapon at you your gonna wait to find out if the weapon is fake or real .. in this situation I’m glad to see eye to eye with cops ... your dumb ass can wait and find out if the weapon is real or not let me know how that goes for you ..
Best wishes to your client and his partner, Police Officers Devin Brosnan and Garrett Rolfe!
Yeah best wishes, may the be cooked,like the dam race soliders they are,such digs are fittings for death,they dont even deserve a trial
@@johnlyles8345
Lol...they treated this guy with utmost respect for 42 minutes, and in return, HE tried to fight them and use their weapons against them. He was totally toasted and out of his mind. Every time his mouth opened his story changed. Further...he's a criminal with a record...a POS. Anyone that feels differently is a fucktard.
@@phattygoodness7347
Phatty, it's best to ignore stupid comments like this John guy. Either he's a 15 year old child who by his age has an excuse for being ignorant, or he's an adult who is just hopelessly stupid.
Praying for you and your client!!!!
Shouldn't even go to trial. DA should be run out of town. He's the racist.
Hope they sue the city and become rich!!
After they get out of jail or while they’re doing their time 😂
There is a DA due process violation against the officers in this case.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Due process is happening...lol welcome to being treated like. Lack people. GTFOH
Marice Walman I think the problem with this kind of thinking is that it’s right to meet injustice with injustice. It’s just as wrong when an injustice happens to a black person as a police officer.
I agree the officer did everything right. That man should have listened and not grabbed the officers taser. Ridiculous. Officer should be free and clear
They should sue the district attorney and city
God Bless you officer Devin. I'm sorry you have to go thought this. There are some people in this country that still believe in the rule of law and the officers who enforce it. Gods Speed sir.
Sorry for yourself 🤣😀
Raymond Barber not most of America, the only ones still boot licking bay the conservatives who buy guns to defend themselves from a tyrannical government who are ironically unaware that police are the murderous group of the government
It's all political, the officers are innocent.
I agree that Mr. Brosnan did not commit a crime and should not have been charged. But police need to be trained different than they are. His first instinct should not have been to further subdue the man. He knew that the only weapon that Mr. Brooks was in possession of was a taser. He also knew Mr. Brooks has been shot. His FIRST action should have been to give first aid to Mr Brooks.
And, although Mr. Brosnan's conduct makes him a despicable human being, it does dot make him a criminal.
All charges should be dropped on both officers. They were doing their job. Period
EstrellaÁngel17 the officers life was in danger I do not understand how you and other people don’t get that. If the taser made contact then he had access to the officers service weapon. That breaks the use of force continuum
@@negligentned8771 The guy ran away. The police shot him. In no way those officers' lives were in danger. The office who shot him was just trigger happy.
Innocent victims of a political movement that is exactly what this is.
Plus the guy had a long list of criminal activity...also child neglect...cops are humans too people,not robots
@Frankie Hanja no, resisting officers is reason for him to be shot. Period
This attorney is the real life Kim wexler from better Call Saul
Am I the only one who is concerned if/when this cop is found not guilty Atlanta is gonna burn?
Oh most definitely
@Evan Gates not tearing the low income down... it'll be in your neck of the woods...so you best pray that don't happen
Nope the mayor said she wants justice everyone in the courthouse is black DA All The Judges Secretary Black BLACK Black Jurors Black
@UNINTENTIONAL PR.....
NOT ME.....I DON'T LIVE THERE.
THE MAYOR SUCKS❗
This seems like a conspiracy to sow discord and riots in the city close to the election to hurt Trump. They charged the cop with a capital offense. There's aquital or failure to indict. Atlanta burns, it's Trumps fault.
Paul Howard is a joke! These charges are a joke!
W Towns it isn’t, a cop has the potential of going to the death chair, his step mom got fired from her job, his partner was told to testify against him without his agreement
It isn’t a haha funny joke it’s literal bullshit, Rolfes partner didn’t do anything and yet he is charged with 3 felonies
Cop, why are you resisting. STOP resisting cop, STOP resisting.
@Robert Sessoms ever heard of change of venue. yeah they will move the trial to outside of Atlanta for a fair trial.
These officers are being offered up for human sacrifice to the BLM gods
Amen to that sister! Shock he was fired and charged!!
