Nothing creepier than being talked to like a child
and being told you'll be taken care of while being
murdered
They must know that you don’t have to be standing on someone’s neck to suffocate them. 2 men’s body weight on someone’s the chest or stomach area is enough, especially when Mario was already out of breath. This happened a couple years ago to a heavy set child in school, when the security tried to apprehend him.
Nah. they didn't need to put all their weight on him. The man was drunk and he was obese. They contributed to his death by handling him the way they did.
This aint the first rodeo with this bs. First, I dont care if there are 3 or 3000 investigations. These murderers are pathological liars and Im sure will find the police are "within policy" or justified in just about anything they do. Second,…ya know, theyre liars and murderers. Same story, different day. Go ask the Supreme Court of Nonsense and theyll tell you, its constitutional and we approve of violating your rights. Thanks for the lifer job
Are you going to believe police or your lying eyes?*
Cops murder another citizen… It has become typical of cops behavior.
He wasn't 100% there mentally
A lot of calls to 911 gets poor inersent people killed by cop's those bigots that ring up should be sued also.
What law did this man break PLEASE tell me
Ok, citizen is Alive and Cop's show up and citizen ends up DEAD DOES THIS STILL NOT RAISE A RED FLAG, how many more lives must we loose to TYRANTS before all Cop's lose qualified Immunity ðŸÂ–🥓ðŸÂ–🥓ðŸÂ–🥓
I can't imagine this happening in my country, where people are so bored they call the police on a guy just standing in the street… Wow
And they wonder why defunding of Police Departments is becoming a thing.
If I hire you for $60,000 plus $30,000 worth of benefits it shouldn't cost me $4,000,000 a year because you can't stop killing citizens
Defund the police
The funny thing is he had a medical emergency. Huh ? But be the officers came he had no medical issues. So 190lb on your upper torso will possess no respiratory issues? DF.
Common denominator
I hope that the Prosecutor will begin to prepare himself to bring murder charges these Officers, because if they didn't come to arrest him he won't die.
so was killed for being drunk im in trouble what was his charge for use of handcuffs
Where are the mental health checks for the police?
R.I.P. Mario. This sickens us.
Wait until the autopsy report comes back and see if it was a knee on the back or alcohol poisoning. It maybe due to carbon monoxide poisoning from passing cars.
How many idiots do they hire to patrol our streets?
I feel for the this guy and his family, but this in no way even close to George Floyd.
Cops hushing up murders all over the place. Americas biggest gang of thugs.
No, Mario didn't die at the hospital. Those three murderers killed him on the scene. I don't know what was more disturbing; seeing while he was suffocated by the officers or seeing while they tried to apply a very clumsy CPR with the arms still tied at the back. Mario was killed two times by those three thugs.
1:15 a scuffle omg look the way they word things! Disgusting, the man wanted to breathe!!!!!!!!
I wanna know are the Latinos gonna Protest on behalf of Mario Gonzalez??? oh wait y'all soooo quiet about because you're trying to protect WHITE PRIVILEGE in order to keep your lil jobs they gave you for being Bilingual.
if his lungs can not expand he can not breath.
…that janelle griffin's voice is irritating to hear; I had to fast-forward. 🤬🤬🤬
No one cares about mexicans nothing will happen
I would rather come face to face with a hungry lioness and her cubs than a bunch of pigs dressed in blue.
you dont need to push the neck of someone for afixiate hym, if you put all your weight in his back the muscles cant make the movement for inale air and if the person its big its worse the presure multiplies and no air go in.
We've seen so much lying by law enforcement, I would expect anything they say to be a lie at this point. There are no good apples when they all cover for each other.
Officers should be fired. But you noticed that they didn’t call him an unarmed “insert race here†man?
The people who called the police should also be accountable.
They killed him!!!
a man died in police custody begging for his life. Its EXACTLY the same as George Floyds death… do better!
Altercation? Someone please bring a dictionary
Yeah they killed him!!!!!
Show whole video or where can I see it?
