  1. I love how third world country like USA cry foul of South American prison condition

  2. If the food doesn't get u the guards aren't there to help n nobody gets along. The water tastes like chemicals n hurts when you pee. Correctional facility isn't a healthy place. The food is poison

  3. Welcome to The new world order justice system // this is a reality check

  4. Everything is covered up in jails and prisons, it's a sicko sexual psycho ward where officers exercise their sexual fantasies on prisoners.

  5. Here's a thought experiment: I abduct someone, hold him against his will (imprison him), and he dies while under my control. Is there any doubt the prosecutor will charge me with murder? They will argue that since the deceased was under my control I had a duty to preserve his life. And I agree. So can someone please explain why the same standard is NOT used with respect to law enforcement agencies and prison guards????

  6. Liars… every lie u tell makes me drop a duce. So I'm running out of toilet paper… can a front some off u? Double ply please

  7. Accident U can see with y re on eyes it s NOT an accident My God but a violent homicide!

  8. just a few bad apples my a**…

  9. White Nationalist Jesus must be turgid…

  10. Fascist Republican Jesus must be so proud…

  11. These medical examiners supposedly give accurate and reliably correct diagnostic information. BUT, their job is DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTED to the police departments they work for. Therefore, go against your boss and you WILL be finding a new job.

  12. "We're here to improve a system" – Dr. Roger Mitchell

  13. Medical Examiner was paid under the table to lie

  14. How do you die from bipolar disorder? I didn't even know that is a thing. I've never heard of anybody dying of bipolar disorder. 🤔

  15. Mad person u can't just stack him down on top on him it's low

  16. If u touch persona u have to tolk to him way u to to mad person he will came down then u head cop on him

  17. They have train cop how to heldel person on grown

  18. This case should be reopened, the medical examiner should be Charged!

  19. African-Americans in America are not higly regarded by any peers because they have no connection to the outside world other than the main-land of the USA, NO MATTER the degree of their/ones education. A business-man will not Invest in an African-American man because he knows that his background will not provide him with billions of dollars but only a bunch more of African-Americans: this is the direct result of pro-longed slavery. What part do African-Americans play in modern American society and how do they take over from the native white killers?

  20. The idea of the bowtie actually began a century ago when medical doctors complained that long ties were soiled in surgical situations and thus bowties were created to remedy this situation.

  21. He is a racist and needs to be accountable for his false diagnosis

  22. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    WELCOME TO JOE-DEAL…

    It was educational and inspirational to listen to and to watch the last speech of our brilliant Joe Biden.

    On a separate note, is it not interesting, that when Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin were giving speeches, along with all other communist leaders, they also appeared against red background? The same obviously applies to Xi Jinping, current president of the People's Republic of China, also serving as general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and chairman of the Central Military Commission, the "tradition" initiated in fact by Chairman Mao, the founder of the People's Republic of China. Likewise, Kim Jong-un, Supreme Leader of North Korea and the leader of the Workers' Party of Korea also likes to do the same, just like his father, Kim Jong-il, North Korea's second supreme leader, as well as his grandfather, Kim Il-sung, the founder and the first supreme leader of North Korea.

    Not coincidently, when Adolf Hitler was giving speeches, he used to present himself on the red background as well. I stated above "not coincidently", because Hitler also liked red color. Nazi swastika is depicted in a white circle surrounded by large red space. In 1920, when he decided that the Nazi Party needed its own insignia and flag, this was the color that Hitler chose. For him, this color was “a symbol of our own struggle”, and in 1925, in his infamous manifesto, "Mein Kampf", Hitler declared: “In red we see the social idea of the movement".

    It just seems to me, that our creepy uncle Joe must be working on his legacy really hard and that he wants to be remembered this way.

    Just for clarification, to set the record straight, I do not compare Joe Biden, or anyone else, to Adolf Hitler or any other tyrant (I am even not really sure if he would know what I am talking about anyway). Right now, I am just commenting on the color. Actually, I like red color myself. However, having grown up under communist totalitarian system*, and having lived in the vicinity of former Nazi concentration camp**, whenever I see red stage and speeches being given on the red background, I always have such flashbacks.

    Thank you for your attention.



    * Just for the records: I am a Polish born American, having come to this most wonderful country on Earth in July 1987, having become a loyal US citizen in November 1993, and having become a proud American on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, the 2016 United States Presidential Election.

    ** I was born and spent the first 21 years of my life in Lublin, on the outskirts of which you can see the most gruesome reminder of the horrors of totalitarian system, Majdanek.

    If anyone thinks, that I may have posted the same remarks before, with only minor and insignificant changes, they are definitively correct. It happens occasionally, that my comments are somehow removed (or, using George Orwell's language: "vaporized"), and sometimes even kind of quickly. I do not believe, anyone could offer me a clue, how it happens and why. However, when I do notice that, I post my observations for the second time, changing only a few words, to make it hopefully more difficult for my comments to disappear again. Moreover, if I really want to communicate my breakthrough ideas and observations to the whole universe, so that the whole mankind (and womankind, being politically correct, as guided by our everlaughing Camela; with my apology to all Bactrians and Dromedaries) can benefit from my wisdom, I post them in many different places, not just one. I do it because of occasionally fast turnover effecting my remarks.

    😕

  23. Very very interesting clip this Doctor is telling it straight up no cover up with him.

  24. What's matter NBC, ratings down? Need a riot to generate revenue

  25. Police, no touch, no force please.

  26. What would happen if cops started dying by accident 🤔

  27. Crooked cops and crooked lawers for cops dont want it to be known and tracked how many people they murder,, people THEN could see what piles of lying garbage they are.

  28. Talk is talk… No video???? Shows the arrest?

  29. It is very difficult to understand the situation with law enforcement agencies. They can very often turn everything around and will be right. Of course, it is possible that many people provoke. Having bipolar disorder or just an explosive temper. Everything would be much better if each side adhered to the law. And many such things, actions need to be taught from childhood in the family. Everything comes from there.

  30. The party of the criminal, I'd expect nothing else

  31. Dr. Roger Mitchell. Just the kind of people the world needs more of!

  32. Shout out to George Floyd on 832 days of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!!

  33. So people who are incarcerated their death doesn't matter, this is America for all of you…

  34. Cover story…the cruelty by choice to keep a state job.

  35. Maybe if the blacks would stop committing crimes they wouldn’t be stereotyped by the cops.

  36. If it was a rich, white, male who died this way at the hands of police. It would have been murder! "Accident" is used as a cover- up strategy – everytime! Go through EVERY case this pathologist has ever handled and you will see the pattern of lies!

  37. Genocide. There are more black men in prison today than there were enslaved in 1850.

  38. Good segment. Thank you. More along these lines please.

  39. Ty ..JOHN TOMMY ..MEET CHUCKIES INSURANCE SCAMERS OF WRONGFUL DEATHS…TY FOR SHINNING LITE ON SUCH SUBJECT…

  40. Why is this surprising lol this america it must be burned down
