I have no idea of the case that you're talking about but I ALWAYS take the side of law enforcement unless there is massive evidence showing beyond the shadow of a doubt that the LEOs are guilty.
This has nothing to do with race. There was a white kid playing with an AK-47 on the side of I-25 in Colorado this week. After ordering him several times to drop the weapon the kid opened fire. He's now pushing up daisies and the LEOs got to go home to their families. So, it doesn't matter what your race is, if you don't do what the LEOs say, you deal with the consequences.
