A White BSO Cop Told a Jury of Sheeple that ‘He Had to Knock a Black Teen Down, Mount Him and Slam His Face Into the Ground to Protect Himself’ and They Believed It b/c They Believe Anything Cops Say

From [HERE] "The defendant is not guilty," a courtroom clerk read. After a three-year legal battle, former BSO Deputy Chris Krickovich is relieved with the not guilty verdict after getting caught committing crimes on camera.

With tears in his eyes, he hugged family and friends in the courtroom.  The jury found him not guilty of battery.

Video shows him slamming a Blcak teenage boy's head into the ground and then punching the teen in the head. one Florida deputy spraying pepper spray in the face of a teen boy. As the teen appears to walk away with his hands on his face, the deputy follows him, grabs him and slams him to the ground.

Another deputy then jumps onto the boy's back, slams his face into the pavement more than once and punches the teen in the head.

In the background, bystanders can be heard yelling "What are you doing?" and "He's bleeding." Such statements are not threats.

Prosecutors say Rolle was in an "give up position" and not resisting, so the head slam and punch showed excessive force.  The jury didn't see it that way.

"It's up the province of the jury.  I put forth a good case, so it's ultimately up to them," said prosecutor Chris Killoran.

In the hallway, retired BSO Capt. Neal Glassman confronted the prosecutor. 

"They have 10 times the courage you'll ever have," said Glassman, regarding the three deputies who were originally charged in this case. 

Killoran is the head of the Public Corruption Unit. He called the confrontation disgusting and unprofessional.

"I'm just doing my job, but apparently captains like to get up in my face and try to intimidate prosecutors.  They should know nobody is above the law and we will continue to prosecute these cases to the fullest of our ability," he said.

Krickovich plans to push to get his job back, along with back pay. 

But Broward Sheriff Gregory was quick to release a statement saying Krickovich won't be wearing a BSO uniform under his watch.

"The Broward Sheriff's Office maintains an unwavering commitment to holding all employees accountable. Under my administration we will never be an organization that finds excessive force tolerable. That standard has been set at the Broward Sheriff's Office and will not change. Independent criminal investigations or convictions of former employees do not supersede BSO's administrative policies, standards, or expectations."
