Jonathan Miller is a City Councilman from Prairie View, TX. The same town Sandra Bland died in. He was recently tased by police at his own home, while he was kneeling. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“One witnesses said Miller was tased while he was on his knees with his hands at his side.
The encounter began when police stopped to question several of Miller’s fraternity brothers gathered outside his house Thursday. When Miller attempted to intervene, police ordered him to step back, then tased and arrested him for reportedly interfering with police duties and resisting arrest.
As the confrontation escalated, one of the officers’ body cameras fell off. But the zap of the taser and Miller’s pained scream were captured. Police released images from a second officer’s body camera showing the end of the encounter.
The incident has drawn national attention, coming only three months after the July arrest of Sandra Bland.”*
