That’s a damn shame….

A shocking video is now making its way around the Internet.  The video involves a man who was under police suspicion for selling drugs, even though he wasn’t selling anything illegal.  The man, Donald Andrews Jr., ran a smoke shop in Schenectady County, New York.

Law enforcement officials in the area were suspicious of the man and regularly sent undercover officers to do surveillance on his store.   During one trip, an officer is caught in plain view of store cameras pulling out a small bit of crack cocaine and putting it on the counter when no one was looking.

“He comes in, places the crack on the counter. Crack, which under federal sentencing guidelines, would get him 4 years in jail. Under New York State law would get him 2 to 7 years in jail,” attorney Kevin Luibrand said while narrating the video for an audience that was in stunned by what they saw.

The community is outraged over the incident.  The Schenectady chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference has taken the lead on the matter, expressing their shock and concern over the incident.

Schenectady County Sheriff Dominic Dagostino reportedly told WNYT-TV that procedures weren’t followed and that the rogue cop who planted the evidence is now on the run.   Andrews is in the middle of filing a wrongful arrest lawsuit against the police department.
If police testimony is always valued above and beyond the defendants, how often do you think this happens?  With black men being arrested for drug distribution more than any other group of people, it probably happens more than you know.

I hope he sues their racist asses…. rat bastards….
