And another police officer avoids charges for killing an unarmed black man
Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm announced Monday that he would not be charging former Milwaukee police officer Christopher Manney, a white 38-year-old, in connection to the fatal shooting of 31-year-old black man Dontre Hamilton in April.
Though several details of the case are not totally clear, this shooting marks yet another case in 2014 in which a white police officer has gone uncharged in the death of an unarmed black man, a decision that has sparked outrage and anxiety in the wake of the Michael Brown and Eric Garner grand jury decisions.
