CINCINNATI POLICE OFFICER BLOWS MAN’S HEAD OFF FOR NOT HAVING HIS LICENSE

WCPO edited this video to blur the moment Sam DuBose is shot in the head.

UC police officer Ray Tensing’s body camera video clearly shows that he committed “murder” when he shot and killed an unarmed black motorist at a traffic stop, prosecutor Joe Deters said Wednesday.

The shocking video shows Tensing grab the outside door latch on 43-year-old Sam DuBose’s car after DuBose couldn’t produce a driver’s license.

Police officers in Cincinnati appear to have corroborated a false account of the fatal shooting of Samuel DuBose in the immediate aftermath of the incident, a detailed analysis of body-camera video released on Wednesday shows.

DuBose, an unarmed 43-year-old black man, was shot dead by white University of Cincinnati police officer Ray Tensing on 19 July. The officer claimed he was “dragged” by DuBose’s vehicle following an altercation during a routine traffic stop, and was therefore forced to open fire, shooting DuBose once in the head.

On Wednesday, Tensing was indicted for murder after Hamilton County prosecutor Joseph Deters said body-camera footage, which he released at a press conference announcing the charge, showed the officer was not dragged during the encounter.

“It is our belief that he was not dragged. If you slow down this tape you see what happens, it is a very short period of time from when the car starts rolling to when a gun is out and he’s shot in the head,” Deters told reporters on Wednesday.

The footage shows that Tensing falls back, after DuBose is killed instantly by a single shot to the head and immediately chases after the vehicle. Deters said that DuBose’s limp body probably caused the car to accelerate.

A Guardian analysis of the nearly 28 minutes’ worth of Tensing’s body-camera footage released by the prosecutor’s office also shows the aftermath of the shooting and reveals that on three occasions, two other police officers repeat Tensing’s account that he was dragged by DuBose, and one of these officers claims to have witnessed it occurring.

Tensing repeats, multiple times throughout the footage, the claim that he was dragged by DuBose’s vehicle. But at five minutes and 44 seconds into the video, he states: “I think I’m OK. He was just dragging me.”

To which a second officer, who stands out of the frame, replies: “Yeah, I saw that.”

Tensing continues: “I thought I was going to get run over. I was trying to stop him.”

Then, at six minutes and 54 seconds into the footage, while Tensing is seemingly conversing with the same officer, he states: “He was dragging me, man.”

The officer replies, “Yeah.” To which Tensing continues: “I got my hand and my arm caught inside.” The officer then replies, “Yeah, I saw that.”

The identity of this officer is not immediately clear. A copy of the University of Cincinnati police division’s information report on the shooting names university police officer Phillip Kidd as a witness to the entire event.

The information report, written by UC police officer Eric Weibel, states: “Officer Kidd told me that he witnessed the Honda Accord [DuBose’s vehicle] drag Officer Tensing, and that he witnessed Officer Tensing fire a single shot.”

Weibel’s report continues: “Looking at Officer Tensing’s uniform, I could see that the back of his pants and shirt looked as if it had been dragged over a rough surface.”

About 14 minutes into the video, while Tensing is still at the site of the shooting, but has now moved further away from DuBose’s crashed car, he is instructed by a third officer to indicate where the altercation had started.

How many do the pigs have to murder before something is done?

The guy tried to drive away when he was shot.

That doesn’t make shooting him justified or not murder, but if he had not tried to drive away he would be alive.

If you have an issue with the police over a traffic stop, take it to court. You know you are just going to make it worse, maybe fatally worse, if you try running away.

It’s also a good idea to have a drivers license and have it with you when you drive, and at least make sure you have tags on your car and obey traffic laws if you don’t so you don’t attract attention.

I imagine the cop will get convicted of something serious, but I doubt it will be intentional murder.

I hope the White Cop walks. One less negrow piece of shit .I wish those cops would kill every one of these Damn parasites. Society would be so much better often without BLACKS and you all know it.

Zara,

It had to be started and put in gear to drive away, not something that is normal after being stopped.

He tried (intended) to drive away, not a good idea. Had he not done this he would be dealing with a no license citation, not dead.

The cop is certainly out of line for just shooting him and deserves to be charged but DuBose initiated it from start to finish (he wasn’t stopped randomly, DuBose had a missing license tag that got him stopped and no license on top of it).

I have little sympathy for people who deliberately do stupid things and get themselves killed because of it.

Like I said a year or more ago, a LOT more people will have to die before this shit gets better. A lot! I sincerely hope every killing is just one more shovel full of dirt for these copfuks digging their own graves.

This is The Great Regression. Get used to it. It’s gonna get worse.

Perhaps it is time to re-examine why we even have drivers licenses? Why do I need permission to travel on a public roadway? Do I need this for a bicycle, horse or travel by foot? A public roadway is public right of ways held in trust by the government for the people to use. So obviously there is some rules that need to be in place for uniform use. This still does not meet the need for permission. If an unlicensed person caused damage to another persons property or body there are ways to litigate that under common law. Government definitely has the power to regulate commercial activities. As such commercial licensing of entities that make their living on the roadways is still viable. The slight of hand is the drivers license most of us have. They say “were you operating the motor vehicle”. “Operating” implies a commercial use a contract. So in reality our license is commercial in nature opening the door to civil complaints (tickets), and civil procedure (courts, contracts). Something to think about…..

While I despise Neegrows and their behavior – this ‘traffic stop’ shake down has got to stop. For any small reason you’ll be stopped – maybe you have alcohol on your breath, they smell grass, see a pipe on the seat, you may have a warrant for a parking ticket – a myriad of possibilities to put you under the microscope, and find some infraction

The cop mentality (if they have one) is that everyone is potentially public enemy #1, and they must be stopped at all costs.

What happens if the guy doesn’t have a license? Well they tow and impound the car. That plus the ticket is probably $500 (at least) which many of these people don’t have. Which means they lose their car – this happens all the time.

Greetings,

I, for one, am not in any particular hurry to see civilization come apart at the seams as I enjoy having running water and electricity. Bad police practices going all the way back to the Boston Massacre have been responsible for the majority of the rioting and civil unrest we’ve had in this land. Frankly, it can’t be that far away from us seeing death squads roving around at night doing tit for tat revenge killings.

No conviction without an all black jury. He was trying to run. This often results in death regardless of race.

You shoot somebody in the head for leaving a traffic stop, when there is no reason to believe the subject is dangerous to anybody? True, he should not have started the car with the cop standing there. That said, a better response would be let him go, pick up your radio, and have him nabbed a few miles down the road. This is a killing, not hitting somebody with a fucking nightstick. In general I support the police but every force has its ten percent. They must be identified and be removed from the streets. I also recommend a total ban on police steroid use, shaved heads and military-style uniforms. As a cop friend of mine says, we are supposed to be peace officers, not soldiers.

Muck , just my musing after going to new nation web SITE .Take a look yourself.You will get a good idea of how bad black crime is in this country. Justice department numbers says 12 white people are killed by blacks every day in this country. This web site puts faces to the rape , assaults and murders.The crimes these blacks commit are to graphic for this site.I sick blacks and their Damn crime.

Brian,

You don’t need a permit to travel on a public roadway.

You do need one -a license- to operate a motor vehicle on one (unless you’re an illegal immigrant) because it certifies you are competent to do so and are not a direct threat to the public safety of everyone else using that public roadway.

If you demonstrate that your are not competent to operate one safely (unless you’re a illegal immigrant) you lose your right to do so.

No one but a total nut case would disagree with this.

bb

Who keeps giving me these down votes and why ? I think most of you are to scared to admit the truth about blacks in general. You still think they are some good ones out there. I have learned blacks have a deep unending hate for your white asses .The quicker you learn this fact the better you will be during the coming collapse. Don’t give me any of your goodie goo bullshit. Been around enough blacks to know the truth.

At what point did the Cop-Fucks start shooting when they were not in mortal danger. That used to be the rule. Now, it seems to be a sport, nothing but Einsatzgruppen enjoying the kill. And their buddies all lie for the killers.

“I think I’m OK. He was just dragging me.” ——— TOTAL LIE

To which a second officer, who stands out of the frame, replies: “Yeah, I saw that.” ——— TOTAL LIE

Tensing continues: “I thought I was going to get run over. I was trying to stop him.” ——— TOTAL LIE

Then, at six minutes and 54 seconds into the footage, while Tensing is seemingly conversing with the same officer, he states: “He was dragging me, man.” ——— TOTAL LIE

So, it should be EASY to get a murder conviction. But, it likely will not happen. Laws for us … laws for them. Nevertheless, if the copfuk does get convicted … I hope he gets ass-raped to death in prison.

bb….each of us has our own opinions and values in life, not only for ourselves, but for others.

To me it is like abortion, which I consider to be the ultimate immorality – innocent humans unable to defend themselves are butchered for CONVENIENCE by an adult human. Deep, Deep down, I don’t understand how any ‘good’ human can be part of the slaughter. How are they different than Himmler and Mengele, etc.

In somewhat the same vein, deep, deep down, I know it is wrong for me to condemn an entire race in favor of another.
I’ve met a lot of shitty white human scum. Do I think in general that blacks are less intelligent and more cowardly than whites – yes. But I can’t condemn them all.

I was stationed in Greece when any local with sufficient cash could get a drivers license. In other words, NO drivers tests … which is almost like not having a license. It was BRUTAL! Taking your life in your hands literally every time you went on the road.

You’re getting thumbs down because you’re resorting to your asshole-ish Village Idiot ways.

Don’t expect thumbs up when you write that you wish copfuks would kill every black parasite. We’re not as fucked up in our thinking as you are. Thankfully.

Police officers seem to be trained that theirs is the most dangerous job out there, and that all other considerations are second to them “going home unharmed tonight.”

Out of this mindset spring endless tragedies.

Of course, it could be even worse:

Stuck, I get why we have drivers licenses for safety and competency purposes. What I don’t agree with is the milking of citizens for infractions where no harm was done to anyone. Seat belts, rolling a stop sign at 2am in the morning, etc. The moderate stand point of most reasonable people lies somewhere between your Greece example (Tijuana would be another great example of anarchy on the roads), and the current state of the USSA where a tiny irreverent thing gets you killed because the revenue agent (copfuk) gets his ego bruised or some shit and kills you or assaults you..

The elephant in the room is cops use every excuse in the book to pull you over and go on a fishing expedition. Have you been drinking….where are you going…why are you out this late…..is there any money in the car….do you have drugs…..on and on until they get you for something. That kind of shit needs to stop…yesterday.

Far be it from me to tell admin how to run his site, but have you considered requiring some kind of login to post to avoid shit like the above? It really takes away from the conversation. It can also turn off new readers as well, it doesn’t particularly bother me since I’ve been reading here a long time( even when whoever it is posts under me calling themselves “gators mom”). You couldn’t even just block their IP since they can just use tor.

I’m not suggesting you censor people for their opinions, but just getting rid of people who post nonsense like this would really clean up the comments

Gator, I haven’t seen anybody posting as Gator’s mom but I do believe Admin is not your mom. He is not going to play Nanny on a libertarian site. There are big dogs that take care of shit like this. There are handwringers that bemoan what has happened to TBP and there are those who defend the fact that TBP commenters are free to express themselves as they wish. Everybody pays for their sins and guilt is a bitch even if bb seems not to feel any guilt. I for one already feel guilty for riding Magyver so hard lately, she is a good sport and that takes all the fun out of trolling her. Just keep plugging away, Gator, no article has a limit on comments or even a limit on comment words. That may be your next fascisti suggestion; that admin put a 25 word limit on comments. Or a limit on the number of times a single person can comment on an article. You could singlehandedly ruin TBP with your ‘helpful’ suggestions.
My comment to you is in no way an effort to discourage you from posting here, glad to have you in the menagerie.

Furthermore, Gator, there was a time not so long ago that folks here went nucular (heh) over a slight by another commenter. You think the above is irritating and a distraction? You should have been around when the comment section turned into a no-man’s land and few survived intact. Many left with tattered or mangled egos. If folks vent their displeasure with a bit of humor, however distasteful, at least the rest are able to continue on topic if they wish. That was impossible back then.

Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?” For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this.

@Stucky, I think you have approximately zero real evidence that driver’s licenses are either necessary or sufficient to keep bad drivers off the road. Your example of Greece proves nothing to me, because there are other countries, like China, where licenses are required and people still drive like maniacs; or countries like Germany, where licenses are required, people drive much more aggressively than I would, but the accident rate is quite low compared to ours. Maybe it’s a cultural thing?

Licenses are not necessary, because in principle a person who causes an accident could still be sued or imprisoned, license or not; and a person who hasn’t caused an accident hasn’t harmed anyone.
Licenses are not sufficient, because there are plenty of licensed drunk drivers, old drivers, or just plain bad drivers; just about anyone can fake it long enough to pass the test at the DMV.

I suggest most people drive safely, to the extent that they’re able, because they don’t want to die or kill someone else. Nevertheless, I’m sure people will think I’m crazy because they’re so indoctrinated with the belief that the government keeps us “safe”.

” ….. you have approximately zero real evidence that driver’s licenses are either necessary or sufficient to keep bad drivers off the road.” —- AnarchoPagan

ummm … that’s because I never said said a driver’s license will keep bad drivers off the road.

What a driver’s license does is assure a MIMIMUM UNDERSTANDING of the rules of driving, and the actual driving portion of the test demonstrates MINIMUM CAPABILITY.

You, OTOH, want to allow anyone with a pulse to get behind the wheel of a 3,000 pound car … and just hope for the best. Are you related to Kramer? Cuz that has to rank at the top of TBP’s dumbest idea ever.

“I suggest most people drive safely, to the extent that they’re able,” —- AnarchoPagan

So, one day someone’s 14 year old daughter who has never driven before says, “Dad, I’d like to drive to school today”, and you would be OK if the dad says “Sure, just drive as safely as you are able.”. Are you daft??

I did not say YOU would do such a thing. I purposely said “SOMEONE’S”.

Much as I hate to say it, YES — we need at least some laws that protect us from other people. Ever watch those Mark Dice interviews?

There are MILLIONS and MILLIONS of cars on the road. Your idea of letting anyone drive willy-nilly, and hoping they are responsible, is a pipe-dream and would no doubt result in massive deaths and injuries. And, I suspect you’re smart enough to know that.
