The Texas cop who pulled out a gun on a bunch of teens during a pool party is now off the hook. The jury decided not to indict former officer McKinney.
Here’s the reason why.
The McKinney Police Department’s mission is to make the city a safe place to live, work and visit for everyone. In light of this, we seek to work in partnership with all who live and work in this great city. The incident at the Craig Ranch Pool in 2015 was turned over to the Texas Rangers for investigation. The Rangers concluded their investigation and presented it to the Collin County District Attorney’s Office. On Thursday June 23, the District Attorney’s office presented the findings of the Ranger’s investigation to a Grand Jury. The Grand Jury’s decision was to “No Bill” any charges against Eric Casebolt in relation to the June 2015 incident.
NAACP president Williams Brooks believes the cops excessive force was pretty unnecessary which I agree with. He says,
“the excessive force on an unarmed 14-year-old girl clad only in a bikini by an officer wearing a uniform and a gun.”
