Three deputies, one black and two white killed a black North Carolina man, Andrew Brown jr., to protect themselves and others. The officers who shot and killed Andrew Brown Jr. while serving a warrant for his arrest were justified in the shooting. The district attorney said he will not press charges.

An autopsy commissioned by Brown’s family found he was shot five times, once in the back of the head. That report added to the findings of a state death certificate that showed that he was shot five times and that Brown’s immediate cause of death was a “penetrating gunshot wound of the head.”
The district attorney has said officers fired only after Brown struck deputies twice with his vehicle.
The attorney for the family lied and is probably another race hustler looking for a financial payday.
Chance Lynch, the attorney for the family, said last week that the video shows that deputies fired at Brown, prompting him to move his vehicle away from them. After the shooting, Brown’s vehicle was riddled with bullet holes, Lynch said.
That was a lie as the video below shows. The deputies fired after Brown, a career criminal, and drug dealer, tried to drive away, backing into officers and then nearly running them over. They fired after two were hit by the car.
Brown had a 180 page rap sheet which was sealed recently by the court.
The officers were not injured.
See for yourself:
THE LEFT STILL WON’T ACCEPT THE TRUTH
When they say the “war on drugs,” apparently they mean literal war. War like it’s Mogadishu in the ‘90s or Baghdad when we invaded in 2003. This is repulsive. Is this the way we want to live???

So they’re having a whole press conference just to attack a dead man (Andrew Brown) and vindicate the people who killed him.

#AndrewBrown was not using his vehicle as a weapon. The “contact” was minimal at best & initiated by officers.
He was beyond law enforcement when multiple shots were fired, including kill shot to the back of head.
4 officers didn’t shoot, didn’t feel life was in danger.

North Carolina DA Andrew Womble says the shooting of Andrew Brown Jr many times including in the back of the head was “justified.”
Meaning they are going to protect the killer cops who murdered another black man in cold blood. Do you see how white supremacy works?

The cops in Elizabeth City, NC executed Andrew Brown Jr. with a shot to the back of the head…
If his murder “was justified,” then why won’t they release the full body cam footage??#AndrewBrownJr #AndrewBrown #BlackLivesMatter
