Settlement Reached for Akron Police Massacre of Jayland Walker. White Cops Shot Black Man 47X as He Ran for His Life, Handcuffed His Corpse after Stop for Unknown Traffic Violation. No Cops Charged
/
GUNNED DOWN WHILE RUNNING FOR HIS LIFE. From [HERE] and [HERE] The settlement agreement between Walker's family and the city of Akron, Ohio was confirmed in a joint court filing on Tuesday, though specific details remain undisclosed. Family attorneys announced plans for a press conference "at the appropriate time" to discuss the agreement. Akron officials, meanwhile, have refrained from commenting until the legal process is complete.
The lawsuit, filed in June 2023, followed an incident where officers fired 94 bullets at Walker during a high-speed chase two years ago and sought a minimum of $45 million in damages from the officers, the city and its officials.
The lawsuit accused the police of excessive force and claimed a "culture of violence and racism" within the Akron Police Department. The complaint came months after a grand jury decided not to indict the officers involved. Authorities have yet to release the names of those officers.
Mr. Walker was murdered on June 27, 2022 Eight officers fired dozens of rounds at Walker following a car and foot chase. Autopsy records show that eight officers fired more than 90 rounds at Walker, with more than 60 striking his body. Seven of the cops were white. Police said it began when they tried to pull him over for unknown, minor equipment violations and he failed to stop, cops then claim he fired a shot from his car 40 seconds into the pursuit.
Police body camera video showed Walker eventually bailed from his slowly moving car while wearing a ski mask and ran into a parking lot, where pursuing officers opened fire. On video police chased Walker for about 10 seconds before officers fired from multiple directions in a burst of shots that lasted 6 or 7 seconds. A county medical examiner said Walker was shot at least 40 times. A handgun, loaded magazine and wedding ring were found on the driver’s seat of the car.
Unnamed Officer(s) claim that they thought Mr. Walker had fired a weapon from his car during the high speed chase and that they feared he would fire again, prompting them to shoot him. How police could hear one gun shot during such a high speed chase is a white supremacy mystery. Nevertheless, whether a gun was fired is simply police misdirection and distraction from the only material issue which is whether the black man posed a threat when he fled on foot from police. He had no object in his hand and the cops never saw a gun, because it was on the car seat.
Insofar as it applies to white citizens, the Supreme Court has explained, ‘a police officer can use deadly force to prevent the escape of a fleeing felon ONLY where he has probable cause to believe the suspect poses a threat of death or serious physical harm to the officer or to others.’ Tenn v Garner, 475 US 1 (1985). The Court stated,
The use of deadly force to prevent the escape of all felony suspects, whatever the circumstances, is constitutionally unreasonable. It is not better that all felony suspects die than that they escape. Where the suspect poses no immediate threat to the officer and no threat to others, the harm resulting from failing to apprehend him does not justify the use of deadly force to do so. It is no doubt unfortunate when a suspect who is in sight escapes, but the fact that the police arrive a little late or are a little slower afoot does not always justify killing the suspect. A police officer may not seize an unarmed, nondangerous suspect by shooting him dead. [MORE]
Walker was not a fleeing felon, he had no criminal record and police manically chased him over an unknown traffic violation. He posed no reasonable threat to police as no officers even claimed to have seen him brandish a weapon and he was running away from police when he was shot over 90 times. As such, it is not rational that police reasonably believe they faced an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm.
Akron is a city run by elite, white liberals as Democrats control all branches of government.
Jayland was murdered for failing to comply with an order to pull over and an order to remain in his vehicle or to stop. In other words, he was murdered for failing to comply with authority. All laws or commands by authorities are threats backed by the ability and willingness to use violence/force against those who disobey. The reality is simply obey authority or go to jail or be murdered. Fool yourself if you want to, but there is nothing consensual or voluntary in our legal system. The legal system is entirely based on and anchored in physical coercion, violence.
However, authority is not real, it is simply a belief. Authority is the belief in the government’s implied right to rule over people in the first place. Authority is the belief that some people have the legal and moral right to forcibly control others, and that, consequently, those others have a legal and moral obligation to obey.’ Michael Huemer defines political authority as “the hypothesized moral property in virtue of which governments may coerce people in certain ways not permitted to anyone else and in virtue of which citizens must obey governments in situations in which they would not be obligated to obey anyone else.”
In real life authority is a granfalloon, an unreality. FUNKTIONARY explains Authority “has no meaning in reality,” it “is the means by which society uses to control its population.” Authority is a “cartoon” or an “image of law” because among other things the social contract is a lie told to you by your masters. Consequently, there is no rational justification for anyone or entity to rule over other human beings. Authority is rule through coercion.” Coercion here means physical force. “Laws” are threats backed by the ability and willingness to use violence/force against those who disobey. Huemer explains ‘the legal system is anchored by a non-voluntary intervention, a harm that the state can impose regardless of the individual’s choices.’ The only actual choice authority presents to citizens is to obey commands and laws or go to jail. Locke states, “The lie of tyranny is that you will maintain the freedom of life by obeying authority. The choices it offers you are a lifetime of obedience or death.”
