Some more information that I have gathered from the local news:
It took 1 1/2 hours to determine the verdict. There were 10 hours of testimony.
It was a unanimous jury verdict.
There is no rioting going on in Las Vegas. Obviously, we are not Los Angeles or Detroit.
Sheriff Doug Gillispie is throwing the officer under the bus and probably will look for ways to fire the officer.
Gillispie said the inquest was fair and transparent.
Gillispie said he was briefed 2 days after the shooting. 2 days????
A new vice officer supervisor has been assigned and the old supervisor is out of vice.
When Officer Yant testified testified, the family of Cole walked out of the courtroom.
It took 3 minutes to call for medical aid.
The homicide investigator believes that Coles body was found like Yant said it would, contradicting what the medical examiner said.
SWAT will, now, take over search warrant searches.
The family's attorney says that that limited options to the jury caused them to find the shooting justified.
There was not one African American jury member.
