Officer Mark Dial had been charged with murder, voluntary manslaughter and five other counts stemming from the August 14 shooting in Philadelphia. The case was notable in that police initially told reporters Irizarry “lunged at the officers” while outside his vehicle, only to later admit that video disproved that assertion.

Total lies. They shot a man who was conforming to police orders while sitting in the front of his car.

Dismissed because the officers allegedly thought the knife in the guys waistband was a gun.

    Charges DISMISSED?

    There needs to be a purge of every single judge and cop and prosecutor etc.

    There is no redeeming this system.

      It's absurd. I sort of expected them to drop the charges to be honest, but surely the police should be able to prosecuted for blatant obstruction of justice at the very least? They completely falsified what happened at the crime scene.
