Verdict in BART Killing of Unarmed Man: Involuntary Manslaughter

Remember this (graphic content)? Skip to 1:30.

The claim made -- which I guess is plausible; I mean, who kills people openly like that? -- was that he thought he was reaching for his Taser. I guess the jury bought that: two to four years.

Seems... well, I don't know. It seems light. But I'm guessing the guy testified about his fatal error and came across as truthful.

In Oakland, radicals and "community activists" have been agitating for a riot unless "justice" was done, and I'm guessing they'll have their riot after all.
