anybody heard about this? happened very recently and there seems to be a media blackout on the whole sordid affair - ''37-year-old Kelly Thomas happened to be in the vicinity when police responded to a call of suspicious activity in Fullerton, California. Mr Thomas was approached by up to six officers and subjected to a beating so vicious he later died.''  |

the guy was mentally ill and put up no resistence but nevertheless was tazered 5/6 times and then brutally attacked by 5/6 police officers for no reason. there's a rather disturbing youtube vid of it happening; where you can hear him crying for his dad..  and also i have a link showing the state of him in hospital afterwards, which i'm not sure whether to post the link for atm. google will help i expect.

'' One officer supposedly beat Kelly Thomas with the b*tt of his Taser until blood started coming up all over the officer’s arms and hands. Another officer supposedly drop knees Kelly Thomas’ nose and throat with the full force of his body weight multiple times, crushing the victim’s throat. This happened while Kelly Thomas was not moving or resisting.'' :/
