BART COP: Johannes Mehserle; Oscar Grant's murderer gets 2 years?
Involuntary manslaughter?
Two years for shooting a young father of a 4 year old in the back while facedown and handcuffed?
Says it was a "mistake" and thought his Sig Saur .40 cal. semi automatic pistol was a tazer.
His lawyer says people should not get the idea that it is OK to prosecute Gestapo Officers for making "mistakes" in AMERIKA.
"Rains said Mehserle wants to fight his conviction because he fears other police officers facing similar circumstances might meet the same fate.
"It may send a signal to other district attorneys in this county or in this state that it's OK to prosecute a police officer for making this kind of mistake," Rains said."

I hope this sends a signal to other district attorneys in this county or in this state that it's MANDATORY to prosecute a police officer for committing this kind of flagrant MURDER, I say. Two years is bullshit though. Minimum sentences for police crimes committed while on duty should be automatically doubled as the trust and power placed in their hands by the public should come with greater responsibility, not less.
