Conflicting portraits have emerged of the police officer at the center of the controversy surrounding the death of Eric Garner in Staten Island during an attempted arrest in July. Defenders of Officer Daniel Pantaleo say he is an upstanding former Boy Scout with few complaints against him. Critics say he should have been indicted for his role in Garner's death and point to two lawsuits against him as signs that his record as an officer is tarnished. Police union officials describe him in glowing terms, saying he is no hothead.
After the Michael brown case, this is just making the hatred towards cops much stronger. I do believe that this case was wrongly executed and he should have been indicted. Killing an innocent man after he was already in cuffs poses to excuse. He was in handcuffs therefore nothing more should have been done. I hope this young man does get justice.
