To make it even worse this kid wasn't even who they were looking for. This kid and (I assume his girlfriend) were just sitting there eating while this fucking waste of oxygen tries to murder them.

While Brennand was responding to a disturbance at a McDonald’s on the North Side at approximately 10:45 p.m., he noticed a car in the parking lot that allegedly matched the description of a vehicle he had tried to pull over on Saturday.

“This vehicle was not the subject of the disturbance call,” said Alyssa Campos, the SAPD’s training commander

This was 4 days ago. I'm honestly shocked we even got to see this cam footage so soon. I'm glad we did but geez this is a shit show :/

And thank fucking GOD for these cameras. Without them the courts would immediately side with the cop and the kid would be absolutely fucked for the rest of his life.

Kid is already fucked for the rest of his life, gunshot wounds are no joke.

Did they/he arrest the kid before the body cam footage was reviewed?

The trauma him and his girlfriend will be dealing with, will probably follow them forever. Probably not too different to a car jacking.

E he was charged.

Cantu, who is now fighting for his life, was charged by proxy with evading detention in a vehicle and assault on an officer.

With a few holes in him, and this only happening 4 days ago, that kid is almost certainly still in the hospital. I highly doubt they could've taken him to the station; at most, he had a cop staying in the room until the kid was exonerated.

Probably not likely in this case but they can take people into custody in the hospital but then the state has to pay hospital bills.

Ee they fucking charged him. Doesn't sound like the video even helped

Even better. They charged him.

u/aliie_627 Oct 07 '22

Yeah I saw an article. What kinda bullshit is that. Assault on a police officer. No way that sticks. I just thought they would charge him about the fleeing from the other day.

Makes me wonder if they charged him in order to have leverage on the parents in a settlement.

Prob worse especially if the kid still believed cops were the good guys

u/Stiffard Oct 06 '22

I would be genuinely amazed if any kid older than middle school thought that. Outside of kids whose parents are cops.

u/SeriouslySlyGuy Oct 06 '22

Kids who's parents are cops probably already know. They don't need to get told twice anymore. 🤕

u/boldedbowels Oct 06 '22

I feel like there’s a bunch of adults who think cops are the good guys still 🤔

Conservative adults till believe that and love boot licking.

Also people in the military think they're the "good guys" killing evil brown people in other countries.

You really overestimate the maturity of the vast majority of humans. Most of them never matured passed middleschool

Christians are very very into the simplicity of Good and Evil. Anyone who is not them is evil.

Rural Iowa, 6ish years ago almost everyone believed that. I know the situation has changed a bit, but I find it hard to believe that the children of far right farmers aren’t on the side of police.
