Safe Mode: On
Johannes Mehserle - POLL

Sentence expected today for Johannes Mehserle. For those of you who don't know hes the former BART officer who shot and killed an unarmed black man in Oakland on Jan 1, 2009. The vid was and probably still is on LL. My question is If he gets any prison time, is that a death sentence for him. The blacks obviously would try to kill him, and he used to be a cop so the whites won't want anything to do with him either. No prison sentence might be unjust, even though it was an accident. Can the prison keep him safe? Will he get probation?

  • The phonecam video shows every detail. The cop killed a man by mistake. Cops make mistakes like any other humans. But when you decide to become a police officer you take on life or death responsibility to the people you deal with every day. What's more as a cop you really need to possess extremely good judgment in my opinion. The officer mistaking a taser for his real gun then accidentally killing an already subdued man with it - oops! This officer's momentary brain fart killed an innocen More..

  • Looks like he got 2 years with credit for time served. He will be housed with the snitches, ex gang members and sex offenders. With good behaviour the guy will be back on the street in a little over a year.
