Cell Phone Video Emerges That Refutes St. Louis Cops Version of Shooting

St. Louis- On Tuesday, while tensions continued to simmer in Ferguson, just a few miles away 25-year-old Kajieme Powell was gunned down by St. Louis cops.

Officers claimed that they were in fear of their lives as Powell charged at them with a knife. They claim he had the knife in an “overhand grip” and came within three feet of the officers, at which time they opened fire, killing Powell.

The incident stemmed from a call by a Six Star Market owner after Powell allegedly stole two energy drinks, according to KSDK.

Reports from witnesses claim that Powell was acting erratically, pacing back and forth on the street and talking to himself, while carrying a knife.

St. Louis Metro Police Chief Sam Dotson responding to a question of whether the shooting was justified said his officers “have a right to go home at night” going on to say that all officers have a right to defend themselves.

He went on to defend his officers actions saying that they used deadly force due to the suspect with a knife coming within three of four feet of the officers, which would be considered within lethal range.

New cell phone video has emerged that calls into question officer’s version of events, and Dotson’s defense of his officers, leading up to the shooting.

In the video two cops arrive together, exit the vehicle, and demand Powell drop the knife. Powell begins yelling “shoot me, shoot me, shoot me now,” as walks onto a ledge then steps off as if to approach.

Powell, who had his hands at his sides, never came within more than 10-15 feet of the officers before they opened fire killing him.



“They could have tazed that man.”

Surely the officers could have utilized non-lethal force in this situation.

It seems that these officers, and Police Chief Dotson, think they are the only ones that “have a right to go home at night.”

The police turned a call about two stolen energy drinks into a murder, of course they will say it was justified, so they could go home at night… sadly, Kajieme Powell will never be able to go home again.

It’s this us or them mentality that has created the conditions we see in Ferguson and around the country, as the warrior cop has no sense how to diffuse a situation, but rather only how to use force and brutality on those they are sworn to protect and serve.

What a fuckin moron

What a fuckin moron

:word

Don't give pigs a reason to shoot you and they probably won't. If you pull a knife, advance on them, and practically beg them to shoot you... there's a good chance you're going down.

Cracka pigs lying, what else is new?

This is what happens when you put weapons in the hands of uneducated, scared shitless, white people.

They put a dozen rounds in this dude bc he wasn't white and wasn't afraid of them pointing guns at him.

What the victim was saying is irrelevant, there's about 900 better alternatives to de-escalating that situation and they failed to attempt even 1.

If u want to be killed then i think your wish should be granted

[JdPat04]

sorry jd but that is just wrong. the man was mentally ill. and two cops with guns cannot take down one man with a knife? pop a bullet in his ass literally or a leg. he did not have to be killed.

I KNOW he didn't have to be killed. However thats population control and less tax paper dollars.

If you scream kill me kill me then die die.

I know they could've tazed him pepper sprayed him shot him with a bean bag, etc...

Dude robbed a store, had a knife, wouldn't drop the weapon after repeated orders from police, yelling to shoot him, charges at police with knife, cops shoot the dude. Problem solved. Next.

"Charges at police" :biglol

Dude took 2 cans of juice :lol:

What he says is irrelevant, he's clearly mentally ill.

If you're going to justify murder based on what crazy people say then you might as well eliminate every mental care facility on the planet bc they'd be some dead bitches.

Wtf he isn't mentally ill. He is a fucking hood rat who got shot. Want to stay alive? Don't charge police with your hands in your pocket 1. Then they won't pull guns they will pull tasers. His hands being in his pockets when it starts means the cops pulled gun instead of spray or taser because they had no clue what weapon he had. With the guns drawn, he charges them. They didn't have time to switch weapons so they defended their lives.

Sorry...dude died and deserved it.

Well he was begging for it

[Muck FcDisney]

"Charges" is hyperbole, yes. You still don't advance on police with a knife in your hand when they have weapons drawn.

Dude took 2 cans of juice :lol:

What he stole and how much is irrelevant. He'd still be alive if he had sold his knife for $4 though.

What he says is irrelevant, he's clearly mentally ill.

Then he should be under supervision, not running around brandishing a knife and askinh people to shoot him.

If you're going to justify murder based on what crazy people say then you might as well eliminate every mental care facility on the planet bc they'd be some dead bitches.

Do mental care facilities arm their patients and send them out to mingle with the general public?

Deserved what he got. Maybe you should try the same thing and see what happens. Could be a trend.

You've been watching too much NBGhey if that's what you call a 'charge'. :dog
