Protecting & Serving...... The Police State.

ATLANTA Georgia, USA:

-- A recently-retired Atlanta police officer has been found guilty in the beating of a man accused of stealing a tomato at Walmart.

-- Trevor King, 49, is facing a two-count federal indictment.

-- The October 2014 incident broke Tyrone Carnegay’s leg.

-- King was an APD sergeant working an off-duty security job at a southwest Atlanta Walmart.

-- King has a history of lying on the job and has been disciplined.


VIDEO REPORT:



A jury is currently in deliberation in the case of a recently-retired Atlanta police officer who beat a man FALSELY accused of stealing a tomato in Walmart.

Trevor King, 49, is facing 2 counts / federal indictment tied to using unreasonable force willingly, & falsifying a police report in the 2014 incident that broke Tyrone Carnegay’s leg. At the time, King was an APD sergeant working an off-duty security job at a walmart in SW Atlanta.

The FBI learned about the case through a 2016 report by a news report which included exclusive video of the beating.

In under 10 seconds video shows King beat Carnegay with his baton.

The enraged officer then pulls a receipt for the tomato out of the man’s pocket.

“He’s giving me a verbal command as he’s grabbing me and beating me at the same time, saying get on the ground, get on the ground, get on the ground,”

-- Carnegay told Channel 2’ s Craig Lucie in 2016.

Carnegay suffered a broken leg, with bones sticking out of his skin, as well as a ruptured artery, doctors in a Grady hospital testified this week.

“Well I was chained to the bed at Grady because he said I had assaulted him …. obstructed him from doing his job,”..... and then I went to jail for three days.”

-- the victim said.

The charges were soon dropped, which led the man to file a civil suit against the officer King, the Atlanta P.D. and the in store loss prevention officer at Walmart.

The out of control officer retired from APD in January of this year, which was roughly month after the filing of the initial federal indictment.

MISTRIAL DECLARED:

--

In July, a mistrial was called due to officer King’s testimony admitting to telling 2 varying stories in the police reports, the prosecution stated.

The admission led to an indictment that sent every thing back to court this past week.

Additionally, the unreasonable force allegation along with the the new indictment includes a count of describing intent to falsify facts regarding the incident in a second police report King filled out to justify charges against Carnegay.

The Report stated:

“Specifically, Defendant KING wrote an official offense report documenting an encounter with T.C. in which Defendant KING falsely wrote that: (1) he told T.C . to get on the ground using a loud verbal command but T.C. continued to push past Defendant KING and ignored his commands; and (2) T.C. reached for the left side of Defendant KING's gun belt before Defendant KING struck T.C. on his right leg with a baton. In truth, however, as Defendant KING then well knew: (1) T.C. did not continue to push past Defendant KING and ignore Defendant KING's verbal commands; and (2) T.C. did not reach for Defendant KING's gun belt before Defendant KING delivered the first two baton strikes to T.C.'s leg.”

The officer's account is clearly in dispute via the evidence in the video - however the officer's intent is clearly to provide lies in the report that jurors deal with this week.

On Wednesday after King mentioned the first trial during testimony - a 2nd mistrial was nearly called.

“Which was big no-no,” said news agency legal analyst Esther Panitch. “The judge excused the jury, (and) really kind of lashed out at Sergeant King. The government really didn’t ask for a mistrial, although they could have.”


OFFICER HISTORY OF LYING IN INCIDENT REPORTS:

--

Prosecutors presented two false incident reports filed by King in his 26-year career with APD.

-- King was disciplined in both cases.

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, trying to build community, put out content and engage people, help and donate to people, and I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
Carry On.
