"The charge against the Texas state trooper, Brian T. Encinia, is a Class A misdemeanor, and was announced at the end of a day of grand jury deliberations. The charge carries a possible penalty of one year in jail and a $4,000 fine, prosecutors said.

Special prosecutors said that the charge stemmed from a statement that the trooper made about his actions during the arrest. A special prosecutor, Phoebe Smith, said that the “grand jury didn’t believe that statement was truthful.”

He'll beat it. A jury will always let these lying cops off. Par for the course.

That goes under the rubric as feed(sic) speech.

He had no plausible reason to stop her. The dash cam showed her doing nothing wrong, so why did he pull a U turn then tail gate her dangerously without immediately pulling her over? The only plausible reason I can come up with was to force her to commit some violation so that he had an actual excuse to pull her over and spend some quality time showing an out of stater who was the law in Texas (with black female bonus). If someone can point out anything on that video that points the other way, I would like to hear about it.

For the life of me, I simply can't understand why the activists aren't pursuing this point instead of screaming for the heads of cops who shoot actual criminals mid felony.
