This story has been brewing in NJ for the past weeks, and it has steadily been gaining traction. Many media personalities have gotten on it and demanded accountability. NJ has been taking their time fulfilling the OPRA (Open Public Records Act) requests, but rumor has it that the video will be released today. Keep your ears open for a possible "second wave" of riots should the footage back up the claims.

I haven't watched any of it, but I imagine that viewer discretion is advised.

Not really clear but looks like he jumped the officer

Video is not loading for me. But it seems from what I'm hearing that there was more of an altercation here. The main issue seems to be that the cop didn't tell him he was under arrest, so this response was not his fault. This is just what I'm hearing - again, I didn't see the video yet.

And maybe jumped into the driver seat twice. Looks like he got the door closed the second time before the cop pulled him out.

Right before the shots it looks like he was on top of an officer beating him. Very very unclear though.

Whatever it was, this was definitely not a George Floyd situation.

Excuse the language, but this is an important statement from a journalist who has been spearheading the call for justice in this story.

Read through this thread and he’s been so very intellectually dishonest through the release of the video. Guess he finally realized the facts are squarely against him. Good for him, many wouldn’t get there ever.

See the second Maharshal (on the bottom of the Maharsha) in Sotah.
