No charges for the officer involved MVA like attempted murder, assault etc?
Dennis Gray
Let me get this straight… They provided the evidence to law enforcement that resulted in their own arrest on a capital murder charge? They live streamed a murder…?
I need a minute…

Also, in the story, shouldn’t it be ‘gunfire not meant FOR him’ and ‘TWO Birmingham policemen were injured’?
