Reply to comment by AptSeagull in Jennifer Rourke: The Rhode Island judicial system has not only failed me, it has failed us by Rogue-Island-Pirate

It was on the news for weeks

Try Google instead of pretending it didn't happen

I don't live in the state anymore, sorry I failed to live up to your expectation for news consumption. The articles I found didn't have any video of the incident. Just curious what evidence the judge would use to suggest it was justified, because it seems wholly unjustified.

I'll crawl back to my lowly hole in the ground so you can feel better having told me what to do. Thanks for taking the time to expand my understanding beyond the article itself.

Pretty much any story on the verdict is going to link back to earlier stories on it.

I know, I gave it a few tries and couldn't find any video (yes, I read the articlea and, no, I'm not trying to deny it happened)

Wasn't sure if there was bodycam footage, so asked here and lived to regret it.

There’s cell phone video. There’s no body cam footage because the cop wasn’t in uniform or on duty. He also didn’t identify himself as a police officer in any way, so the defense that he was acting as an officer shouldn’t hold up
