Posted at 17:13h, 23 JulyA Us Department of Justice investigation is underway. Where were the Feds when my neighbor Champaign Police Officer Chris Oberheim was ambushed and murdered in Champaign
Il in May 2021? Why are these investigations only done by the Feds when the police use deadly force?

Posted at 08:33h, 23 JulyThis woman had already poured the water in the sink, so where was the threat? She had pot mittens on her hands..Then all she said was “Satan, I rebuke you in the name of Jesus” & bullets starting flying How was she jerking him around when she call FOR HELP? This woman died for simply praying for peace/calm for herself. Yea WTF IS RIGHT! He needs the death penalty cause this was out right Murder and he wasn’t sorry even after he was to busy trying to create the narrative that this lady had attacked him and his partner ..Let’s see how they media and all the others not her color try to spin this..

Posted at 20:50h, 22 JulyWatched the video. The woman did seem to be jerking the officers around. Not really responding to direct instruction. Did not see any real threat to the officers. Officer that shot seemed to believe the woman was going to throw boiling water on him, even though she was not confrontational, agitated, or argumentative. She did not have a weapon, or make threats. So basically, what the fuck, dude. Yeah, I wasn’t there, not the man on the scene, but still, what the fuck.
