...a philly dirt bike rider being shot in the back and killed last year...RIP David Jones

This incident popped back up on my radar, as the officer is actually being charged with murder...but the trial is slow to start

Compelling story on its own...and then I fall down this wormwhole

Officer Pownall had shot another suspect in the back while fleeing...7 years earlier

Officer Pownall is on a do not call list compiled by the DA's office...

...in an effort to keep them from testifying because of the allegations of misconduct

This is more information than I can siphon through in one post...there's alot of info here...I will try to follow up on a few of the officers named

but the next time someone says all cops aren't bad cops...let them know about Ryan Pownall (and the Philadelphia DA's office)
