Lets see if Kap's Protest matter
Upcoming trials:

The case drew national attention last April with the release of a video of the encounter that was taken by a bystander. The video showed Officer Slager, 34, who is white, shooting Mr. Scott, 50, after a traffic stop. Officer Slager had pulled Mr. Scott over for a broken brake light, and said he had fired because he feared for his life after Mr. Scott grabbed his Taser.

But the video showed Mr. Scott running away, and Officer Slager firing eight times, hitting Mr. Scott five times, according to the coroner’s report. The video also show Officer Slager planting evidence, attempting to drop the taser in the facility of Mr.Scott to collaborate with his false allegations.

Last year West Monroe Police Department (WMPD) Officer Jody LeDoux fired his weapon at an unarmed homeless hispanic veteran Raymond Keith Martinez. He was indicted on charges of negligent homicide by a Ouachita Parish grand jury in January.

Martinez was shot in front of a convenience store on North 7th Street in West Monroe. LeDoux reportedly responded to a call from the store to have Martinez removed from the premises.

If convicted, LeDoux faces a possibility of up to five years in jail. Do you think 5 years worth a man's life!

This is not about racism, or blaming Obama. This issue was before Obama was born. People seem to always try to pivot the issue towards something else, now it's politics? No, people are tired, frustrated, and anger that evidence that can been seen by the naked eye, audio that can be heard from foolish individuals with high authority and no repercussion for those individuals. Like the old saying, which is TRUE! If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything. This unpatriotic, selfish, need attention, political propaganda I will not fall for. Especially when I have much to lose, people don't know what lies around the corner, with all this abuse of authority it might just be your mother, father, brother, sister, son or daughter at the wrong end of a barrel.

Obama has done more to bring racism back to life than any corrupt cop or activist group ever could. Regardless, you missed the real point of my post, which is that we need to turn to God. Not people, not stupid protests or political posturing. He alone can fix this world, and we are supposed to be his vessels. If you can't see that then nothing you do or say will matter. Same goes for anyone.

We (BLM) turn to god, he united us into(BLM) god using vessels (Kap, Reid, Lane, the media, etc..) soon this will end with prosecutions or maybe he have another plan to serve justice, I don't know, but he gave us a voice and we are using it.

Really so you voted for Obama because he was the best guy for the job and not because hes black? He wasnt the best.
I talked to mutable black friends that ask friends of them. They didnt know a thing about about Obama, but Obama got 92% of the black vote, and you call whites voting for only whites rasicist? Blacks voted for Obama for his color. They didnt know or care anything about him, just he's black.
Thats not good and everyone knows it.

... he APPEARS black. He's half white, and has never lived in a black neighborhood, but rather grew up privileged. I'm more Ghetto than he is.

But people who obsess with skin color fell all over themselves over him, because he appears black... He could have just as easily been born with red hair and freckles.

I truly do not give a **** what color anyone is. I care about their character.

Original Report:
Hearings continued Tuesday for Jody Ledoux as the attorneys on both sides of the case work to throw out some of the evidence before the trial. Ledoux is facing a charge of negligent homicide.

The state called several people to the stand who claim Ledoux used excessive force or was violent with them. Donald Harger is the former Interstate Battery owner, he's the man who is shown in the video where Ledoux throws him into a rack of batteries.

The state questioned Harger about what happened and he stated he was never aggressive toward Ledoux and he just wouldn't comply. The defense countered trying to diminish Harger's credibility saying he has had several run ins with the law, and saying Harger has an aggressive history with people and cops.

Two others were also called to discuss their experiences with Ledoux saying he lied on their arrest reports. The state says their testimonies were meant to show Ledoux's pattern of retaliation and how he responds to people who aren't compliant.

The defense argued in those instances Ledoux never pulled out a weapon and these people weren't under the influence. They say it doesn't compare to what happened with Raymond Martinez.

A detective who talked with witnesses after the shooting in December 2014 was also called to the stand. He discussed how witnesses told him Martinez's stance wasn't seen as threatening, but for an officer seeing someone put their hands in their pocket is a bad sign.

West Monroe Police Chief Jeff Terrell was also called to the stand to discuss Ledoux's three years with the force, and how he's only arrested 110 people in that time.

The judge says he is going to make a ruling on the evidence by Friday and he is absolutely not going to move the date of the trial set for September 12th.
