Cops killed Zachary Hammond over marijuana, 'high-5'd his corpse'.

In a letter sent to the U.S. Attorney General and the FBI Director asking for a federal civil rights investigation into the shooting death of Zachary Hammond, the attorney for the slain teen’s family claims he has a witness who saw Seneca Police Department officers celebrate the shooting by “high-fiving” the teen’s lifeless body.
According to the letter sent by Taylor family attorney Eric Bland, a witness states “… the officer who opened Zachary’s door and pulled his dead body from the vehicle then went ‘to the trunk of his police car and pulled (SIC) something out. The officer walked back over to the man on the ground rolled him over to his side, put something underneath his body, and then rolled him back.’”
The letter goes on to state, “…a police officer with a neighboring police force has confirmed to SLED that the Seneca Police Department celebrated the killing of Zachary by desecrating his corpse. After Zachary had been shot and killed, member(s) of the Seneca Police Department lifted his dead hand and ‘high fived’ Zachary Hammond.”
They lie about the killing, as the  autopsy differs with the cop's story, and we now hear more details of grotesque conduct with the person they killed.
This particular action betrays such disdain for people's lives once they are associated with 'the evil weed'.
Cops are forever using association with marijuana to excuse killing people. We saw marijuana come up in the issue of George Zimmerman killing Trayvon Martin. We were told the Sandra Bland 'ate' some large amount of marijuana WHILE in jail; back in 2006 when drugwar cowboys killed Ms Kathryn Johnston, they dropped marijuana in her house in an attempt to 'excuse' her killing. They had lied to get a warrant and there were no drugs in the house.
i got nothing,  really what can i say that has not been said by many but letting people know here lies another victim of police homicide hopefully gets us to that point of realizing as Rev. Al said, "lot's of things were acceptable until we stopped accepting them" sooner than later saves lives Black, White, Brown, Yellow, Red, Green, Blue or Purple
