A judge is freeing from prison a Colorado paramedic convicted in the death of Elijah McClain, a Black man whose name became part of the rallying cries for social justice that swept the U.S. in 2020.
The shit of it is, the paramedics listened to the cops who demanded they inject him. They should have not been put in that situation. Cops shouldn’t have any power over paramedics. The cops should have been charged and sentenced.
Unfortunately, cops are the LARPers with guns, so until the false air of power goes away, it will always be an unbalanced situation.
This whole series of court cases was garbage and did nothing to add faith that the “system” may some day be fixed.
