More on why the folks in Cleveland showed Corrupt Racist Tim McGinty the door.
Here's How Cleveland's Grassroots Gave Prosecutor Timothy McGinty the Boot
McGinty was in office when Cleveland police officer
Michael Brelo was acquitted of the November 2012 killing of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams. The Black unarmed couple was shot 137 times in a high-speed car chase with more than 60 officers involved. Brelo fired some 49 of those shots—15 from the hood of their car—but was still found innocent of manslaughter.
CPD officers Scott Aldridge and Bryan Myers killed Tanisha Anderson, a Black 37-year-old with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, in November 2014 but were still on desk duty as recently
as January. Anderson’s family called the police for help because she’d gone out in the cold wearing only a nightgown. They watched in horror as the officers handcuffed her,
took her down and slammed her face into the sidewalk. McGinty’s office
just took the case in mid-February.
Most infamously, McGinty dragged out and interfered with the investigation into Timothy Loehmann’s fatal shooting of 12-year-old
Tamir Rice. Loehmann, a White officer with a
documented history of mental instability and poor performance, shot the Black child who was playing with a toy gun alone in his favorite park within two seconds of encountering him. At
McGinty’s urging, a grand jury refused to charge him with any crime.
