Here is how I heard it, including an interview w/ a black civil rights activist in Cincinnati organizing a boycott.
Man is narcoleptic. He is in whitecastle, and starts falling asleep. He comes outside and starts marching around front chanting 666 and 999. He appears to pass out and falls to the ground. There are attempts to revive him, and are met w/ failure. Cameras have videotaped this from inside. Now we have someone call 911 and the paramedics show up. He awakens and tries to get himself out of his stupor. He refuses paramedic attention. Naturally the police show up to, due to the disturbance and call to 911. The police call the mental health patrol (or something like that) and they try to detain the individual w/o force.
The individual begins to speak to the cops and the cops back up to avoid confrontation. Eventually, the individual continues to resist and is maced. He then attacks the police officers. After throwing punches, taking down a police officer, and placing them in a headlock... he is finally brought to the ground and struck repeatedly w/ batons.
Piecing the videotape together using multiple camera recordings (police cruiser and onlookers), there was less than 2 minutes missing. And the initiation of the macing and beating is shown, so it isn't some coverup on the cops side, all the relevant bits are on video.
1] He deserved it. Amped out on crack and PCP
2] Cops didn't kill him w/ beatings. NO internal bleeding or anything. He did from complications relating to obesity, heart problems, and a large drug habit.
3] He had a previous record, he initiated the attack, he had created a disturbance, he resisted the police officers, and he was behaving oddly. Sorry, don't care about his color of skin, anyone that attacks a cop like that is going to get his [censored] beat. Why take a chance the cracked out [censored] could get back up or grab a cops gun?
I get sick of the people that complain everytime a cop defends themselves, uses extreme force back, a/o it involves black criminals (which he was) and white cops (and a black cop).
He deserved it. He was obviously a PoS and I am happy he died. Too bad the cops might get in trouble for this. Burn in hell Nathaniel Jones, BURN IN HELL.
