Following the release of reports this weekend claiming that officer Timothy Loehmann and his partner Frank Garmback acted “reasonably” when 12-year-old Tamir Rice was shot and killed last year, folks are taking to social media and other platforms to express their distaste with the conclusions, including Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton who tossed her two cents into the ring earlier this morning:  

Clinton’s tweet is the latest in a string of local and national commentary regarding the publication of the reports by the office of County Prosecutor Timothy McGinty. 

Scene’s Eric Sandy explains:

Since Saturday, McGinty has come under fire in the past few days for commissioning and publishing these reports.

“It looks as though the prosecutor is trying to taint the grand jury process as well as manipulate the judicial process overall,” Edward Little said during a gathering of clergy and activists at Cudell Rec Center yesterday. McGinty’s office insisted that it is “not reaching any conclusions from these reports.”

  1. So, she said something without saying anything at all, basically. Ooh! Let me try!

    “There is too much suffering in America today. We need to work together fix this.”

    Wow, that was pretty fun actually.

  2. Shame on Hillary for pandering to blacks. IF the mother had questioned where he got the gun – if indeed she didn’t buy it for him – and why the orange tip was missing and had told him NOT to take it in public and to a park, he would still be alive today! Parenting is what is needed Hillary – stop pandering!
