Did White People Learn From Eric Garner What They Didn’t From Michael Brown


"An NYPD investigation into the police-custody death of Eric Garner has begun, Police Commissioner Bill Bratton said Sunday.

The city’s top cop told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that the department began interviewing police officers Friday who were involved in the July arrest when Garner died. Bratton said the NYPD could not interview those cops during the criminal investigation, which resulted in a grand jury declining to indict Officer Daniel Pantaleo, the officer who placed Garner in an apparent chokehold.

Bratton said the NYPD investigation will take “upwards of three to four months,” but will likely be wrapped up well before the Department of Justice’s civil rights probe, which U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced last week."* The Young Turks hosts John Iadarola (TYT University), Ben Mankiewicz and Wes Clark Jr break it down.
