Yet another unarmed Black man has been shot for no reason - and again, there is video to prove it.
An autistic man got away from a group home in North Miami with a toy truck in his hand. He was having some sort of episode in the road and Charles Kinsey, a behavioral therapist who worked with him came to help calm him down.
Someone called the cops believing that the autistic man had a gun. Cell phone footage captured Charles Kinsey laying on the ground with his hands up for minutes pleading with the responding officers not to shoot and explaining that this was an autistic man with a toy truck. In the video, it's easy to hear his explanation and see him laying flat with his hands up. He described his job, the situation and begged not be shot.
Then an officer shot him, rolled him over and handcuffed while he bled. When Charles asked why the police officer shot him, he responded, "I don't know". Well, I don't know about you, but I really don't think a police officer this trigger happy should be able to walk away from this without a trial. This crime exposes weaknesses in training in dealing with the mentally challenged as well as police instigated racial violence.
The police person has been put on administrative, paid leave. But we demand the DOJ prosecute him for shooting a man with no cause other than the color of his skin.
