Nola has quite a reputation for being heavy handed in police matters. this is a prime example.
This young man, Adolph Chris Grimes III was a law abiding citizen of Texas. Chris had never been in trouble. he had just driven in to visit his family for New Years; and within One Hour of arriving - he’s murdered; by who - The New Orleans Police.
The sheer craziness of this shooting, takes us back to Oscar Grant in Oakland California.
why are these police officers using such extreme force on people who are not threatening to them ?
in this case, the PCR Says Nine Different Nola Officers pumped more than twelve shots into him - with nine of the twelve hitting him in theBACK.
they shot an unarmed man, inside a car - 12 times. why ?
Their Answer, He was parked in a black carFOURBlocks from where a disturbance involving a black car was reported. oooh gee now it’s sitting in your car while it and you are black. YIKES !
the nine Nola Undercover Officers who were not in Uniform, and Brandishing Weapons; never approached him to say a word; they just opened fire on his car. Instantly killing him sitting behing the wheel, UNARMED and probably Terrified.
