by Staff Editor
News has just broke that the NYPD cop, who placed 43-year-old Eric Garner in a chokehold during an arrest in Staten Island earlier this year, will not be indicted for the man’s murder.
According to the NY Post, a Staten Island grand jury made the decision earlier today, where they dismissed all charges against Officer Daniel Pantaleo after voting it a “no-bill.”
The site reports that the decision has come after weeks of investigation, but it was “unclear exactly what charges prosecutors asked the grand jury to consider filing, or how the vote went.”
