The BART police officer that pulled the trigger and sparked another riot based on injustice has resigned:
Scheduled to meet with BART police investigators today, the BART Police officer involved in the tragic shooting New Years Day at Fruitvale Station submitted his resignation effective immediately. On Monday, the officers attorney postponed a meeting that had been scheduled by BART investigators for Tuesday and sought to defer the meeting until next week. BART investigators declined the delay and scheduled a meeting with the officer for this morning. At this mornings scheduled meeting, the officers attorney and his union representative submitted his resignation letter. The officer was not present. BART investigators have urged the officer to meet and cooperate with the transit agencys investigation into the fatal shooting. BART Police investigators have notified the Alameda County District Attorneys Office of the resignation and this development. The District Attorneys office is conducting an independent probe of the January 1, 2009 shooting. The BART Police investigation will continue to seek and examine all available evidence and will continue its full cooperation with the ongoing independent investigation by the District Attorney. This shooting is a tragic event in every respect for all involved, BART General Manager Dorothy Dugger said. We recognize that the family and friends of Oscar Grant are in mourning and we extend our condolences.
Oscar Grant did not have to die, but the pig that killed him should have to suffer some extreme consequences. This type of behavior must be extinguished. F*ck a Thug ass Cop too.
