BREAKING: Police Not Guilty in Kelly Thomas Death; DA Won’t Try 3rd Officer

An Orange County jury Monday found two former Fullerton police officers accused of killing a schizophrenic homeless man, Kelly Thomas, not guilty.
Manuel Ramos and Jay Cicinelli were charged with striking Kelly Thomas with a baton and a stun gun in a beating that left him comatose. He died five days later.
Ron Thomas, Kelly Thomas’ father, said he was stunned by the verdict, saying he’d never seen such a miscarriage of justice.
Thomas also suggested that federal authorities should look into the case.
Ramos’ attorney, John Barnett, told reporters: “These peace officers were doing their jobs…they did what they were trained to do.”
Orange County Dist. Atty. Tony Rackauckas said prosecutors would not pursue charges against a third Fullerton officer accused in the Thomas case. That officer’s trial was pending.
“I don’t intend to proceed with another trial when the two officers here were acquitted,” he told reporters.
The jury took less than a full day of deliberation to reach the not-guilty verdicts.
Rackauckas told jurors the former officers had abused their authority on the July evening when they confronted Thomas.

Ramos was facing second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter charges, and Cicinelli was charged with involuntary manslaughter and excessive use of force under the color of authority.
The incident, captured on surveillance tape, was shown repeatedly during the trial, but each side drew different conclusions as to what it showed.
Prosecutors said the video captured a real-time homicide with the officers beating a homeless man, even as he called out for help. Defense attorneys said it showed two policeman trying to restrain a violent suspect who possessed abnormal strength.
The coroner’s office determined that Thomas died of brain damage from lack of oxygen caused by chest compression and other injuries sustained during his struggle with police.
Defense attorneys suggested that Thomas’ death could be tied to a diseased heart damaged by previous drug use.

“Killer cops aren’t welcome here”: Cop Who Killed Kelly Thomas Driven Out of Restaurant

Lily Dane
Activist Post

Remember Manuel Ramos, the scumbag murderer ex-cop who said, “You see my fists? They’re getting ready to f*ck you up” to Kelly Thomas before beating him into a coma?

Remember that, despite video evidence of the beating that ultimately led to Thomas’s death, an Orange County jury inexplicably acquitted Ramos and let him walk free?

That jury may have been easy on Ramos, but it appears that citizens won’t be so kind.

Last weekend Ramos visited a Denny’s restaurant in California, about a mile from where the brutal beating of Kelly Thomas occurred.

Customers recognized Ramos and began complaining about his presence.
One customer snapped a photo of him getting up to leave and posted it to the Facebook page We Copwatch:

Here’s the caption that was posted with the photo:

So last night at Denny’s we saw this “cop” (the one that killed Kelly Thomas) his ass SHOULD be in jail.. & thank fully the people next to him complained and he got up and left .. I hope it is like that the rest of your life going places, Kelly Thomas has no choice of doing anything he wants to do cause of you .. Enjoy your “freedom”

Hopefully Ramos will continue to be recognized and shamed in public as a reminder that we, the people, have little tolerance for murderous thugs.
