A Georgia police officer’s body camera showed him striking a fleeing suspect with his patrol car. He first attempted to block the fleeing man by swerving onto the kerb, then steered back onto the road and hit him from behind. After much deliberation, investigations were finally carried out and his employment was terminated. In Florida a family is calling for justice after a federal jury cleared a sheriff’s deputy of using excessive force when he shot a man dead in the man’s garage. The family were awarded just $4 in damages, that’s £3.06p, for funeral expenses and pain and suffering in a wrongful death lawsuit. The man was a 30-year-old African American and father of three.  The deputy was responding to a noise complaint about music coming from his garage. Over two years ago Amnesty International reported ‘Hundreds of men and women are killed by police each and every year across the United States’.
