This same man from Maine who singlehandedly started the online harassment of Mustapha Kharbouch after Brown shooting has now started a rumor that Renee Nicole Good's wife put cigarettes out on children and that's why Good didn't have custody of her older children that is being amplified all over.
If I told you the anonymous X account of the guy who single handedly started the Mustapha Kharbouch is the Brown shooter mob frenzy was a man who once ran an illegal vacuum repair shop out of his home and started a Qanon rumor years ago that Pamela Anderson killed Julian Assange what would you say?

We don't know if he was checked on for hours after being arrested, or what happened between arrest and death.

There was some reporting that he may have needed alcohol withdrawal treatment, and if so, should have been transported to the hospital right across the street from the jail. He was arrested in a roundup of people loitering, not for any violent crimes. /

Nassau County said Santo Banegas Reyes died of liver failure hours after arresting him, a claim the family challenges, as end stage liver failure takes a long time to kill someone. /

I’ve never been to Minnesota but from two weeks of nonstop reporting on events in the state I’ve talked to a ton of people there and they are pretty cool. There are certain parts of the country I feel like I just get the people as a New Yorker (Philly for sure is one) and Minnesota, you are alright!

I agree and I think that’s why Vance mentioned Good “harassing” Ross which makes no sense in a normal world to mention about whether a law enforcement shooting was legal and justified

Vance shares this video as exculpatory. Interesting he mentions Good “harassing” Ross as that has absolutely nothing to do with legal justification for the shooting. Seems revealing and saying some quiet part out loud.

the woman who works for this Alpha News is married to a former MPD police union head. I think they think it’s exculpatory. Maybe from Ross himself or another LE source
