Police and politicians hid footage of the murder of Ronald Greene for two years. But the truth is out. |
If you haven’t seen the leaked body camera footage from the police murder of Ronald Greene, John, it’s horrible.
For two years, state police in Louisiana have been hiding this footage. Now we know why.
Police said he died from a car accident.
It was a lie. A blatant lie.
The cops pulled Ronald out of his car. Ronald told them he was scared.
Then they beat him, battered him, and dragged him all over the ground. They electrocuted him repeatedly with a taser.
The police and Louisiana officials hid this brutal murder for two years. Ronald’s family shouldn’t wait any longer for justice for the monsters who did this.
Ronald’s family met with District Attorney John Belton this week. They said they were "encouraged."
But here’s the thing: The crimes don’t stop with Ronald’s murder.
Not only did the police murder Ronald, but then the police, and other officials including the Democratic Governor of Louisana, covered this up. For two years. Many lied under oath.
Belton is going to be under intense pressure to let a lot of people off the hook. We can’t let him do it.
It’s been over two years. Let’s make sure the people who did this don’t escape justice for a single day more.
Appreciate you,
Real Justice
