Too bad he wasn't kicked harder

"A store's cameras allegedly show accused killer Markeith Loyd standing over Orlando Police Lt. Debra Clayton as she was wounded and lying on her back, repeatedly firing and mortally wounding her, according to an arrest warrant affidavit filed today.

The warrant described the alleged shooting that occurred around 7:15 a.m. on Jan. 9, while Clayton was on duty and at a Walmart. A witness, not identified in the warrant, approached Clayton and told her Loyd, who was wanted for the Dec. 13 murder of his ex-girlfriend, was in the store, according to the warrant."

Further along...

"Orlando police on Thursday released video of Loyd's capture. In the video -- which was shot from a police chopper above the scene -- Loyd is seen crawling away from a house and toward officers by the roadway. After he stopped crawling, the officers approached him while he lay prone in the street. At least one officer then appeared to kick Loyd in the head. At that point, the chopper camera panned away.

Mina called the camera pulling away "concerning" and said the apparent use of force will be investigated.

Mina said Loyd suffered a fractured left orbital bone and damage to his eye. He was hospitalized until late Wednesday."

I'm glad he was kicked. I'm glad he broke his orbital bone and damaged his eye. I hope he suffers. Scum like this should die in prison. Hopefully the guards give this piece of shit a warm welcome.

Of course the police hating liberals of the city couldn't help but vandalize the dead police officers vehicle...

"Meanwhile, an Orlando Police Department spokesperson said today that it appears someone vandalized Clayton's police vehicle Thursday night or early this morning.

Words were scrawled in blue across parts of the parked car, which has been sitting strewn with flowers and flags as a memorial to the fallen officer."

Pathetic. Hopefully they catch the culprit and kick in his face too.

If this is true then of course the officer should also be arrested and sentenced to prison.

And I'm glad there aren't people like you in the justice system.

Agreed.

Unfortunately, there are. That's why animals with badges can act with such impunity.

[Flixy]

I wonder if Lewk approved, for example, beating up and breaking the jaw of the first suspect of the Berlin attack (you know, the guy who turned out to be innocent).

[Lewkowski]

If this is true then of course the officer should also be arrested and sentenced to prison.

Jury nullification strategy FTW. Only the worst bleeding heart liberal would find issue with a cop killer and a murderer of pregnant women getting kicked.

*shrug* Unlike you, I don't trust rabid animals and criminals with badges and guns. You can keep trying to make excuses for them if the thought of breaking the law and violating fundamental human rights gives you a hardon but honestly Lewk you'd just be embarrassing yourself.

And what if they mixed the suspects up and kicked the crap out of the wrong person? There's a reason cops are not judge jury and executioner at the same time.

Yeah: libruls

Does it help you psychologically to phrase things this way, Lewk? Did Rand break his orbital bone when he viciously rammed it against that poor drunk's beer bottle years ago? Or, just maybe, did Rand did not break his own orbital bone but someone ELSE broke Rand's orbital bone?

How absurd that when a pregnant woman and a cop are dead we are talking about a kicking. Not the death of two innocents.

The murderer should be punished severely but not by a rogue cop trying to exact revenge for his murdered colleague.

Everyone here knows that it's wrong to kill pregnant women and cops, but not everyone here knows that it might be wrong for a cop to kick a suspect in the head with enough force to fracture bone when that suspect isn't a threat. So you might say that an endorsement of the latter is more newsworthy and discussion-worthy than a condemnation of the former, like a man-bites-dog kind of thing.

Lewk, do you give a damn about the Constitution? At all? Serious question.

Because we all have high confidence that one of these two things will get the proper punishment, while the other will not?

I agree. It's thanks to Lewk's trolling that we are talking about what should be viewed as a murderer and not a victim.

I don't give a damn about a murderer. I do care about the rule of law. And it doesn't exist if you pick and choose when to apply it.

Even if we were to toss aside the presumption of innocence and say this guy's a murderer, the cop's actions created another victim: the law itself. In extension, if we tolerate this kind of behavior, it will lead to the victimization of innocents as well. In fact, it already has--for many decades.

We don't know why the cop acted as he did and he's innocent until proven guilty. Maybe there was a reason to kick like the guy was reaching for a weapon, maybe there was no reason and he did it for revenge for the murder of his colleagues. One is justifiable, the other is not. The difference is Lewk doesn't care if there's a valid reason and wants extrajudicial violence without reason.
