had 18 prior complaints filed against him with the Minneapolis Police Department's Internal Affairs, according to the police department.
The lawsuit was brought by Lamar Ferguson, who claimed in the suit that Thao and another officer subjected him to "cruel and unusual" punishment when they arrested him in October 2014. Both the city and the officers denied liability in the settlement, according to a 2017 statement from the city of Minneapolis.
The officers took Ferguson's wallet and ID and the second officer ran the ID through the National Crime Information Center, a federal database, but no warrant showed up in the system, the lawsuit said.
Unbelievable.....and he was still on the force.....
Why does this not surprise me...
Well, that tells a story. He should be charged with Murder.
I really don’t understand why they wouldn’t immediately lay charges against these four. They were caught on video from multiple angles murdering someone in public. Why protect them, protect the integrity of local law enforcement, make an exemple of those who abuse their power.
So his overseer should be fired as well? Not likely to happen but just as much to blame. 🖕
That video alone is enough to put that fucker in jail for murder.
How come this guy was still working as a police officer. The rule 3 strikes you are out doesn't work over there.....
The 4 police mut be made SACRAFICIAL lambs to send a tothe population messageand bea legal gage for futher incidents of this nature.
Well he was hired under a Democrat run state
America is just about over
Why can everyone except police bosses see that some people are not cut out to be police officers, never will be, and just have to be gone?
Wow 🤬🤬
jackiecoates I seen a murder.Same rules apply.cop or citizen,black or white,we are the same.same punishment for all.murders belong in jail... Stop racism
Ohhh so he wasn’t a racist he was an asshole.
Here comes all the fakenews on the cop . Soon kkk pictures from his house . The world needs a war , a big one to start all over again
Fact check please. One news agency say 12 misconduct complaints now you say 18? Can one say sensationalized headline!
Wow! And was still able to keep his job. Unbelievable!!
More fake news it was 12 misconduct complaints
Sickening 🤢
...and before she became a Democrat Senator and potential vice-presidential candidate to Pedo Joe Biden, Amy Klobuchar spent 8 yrs in charge of prosecutions in Minni. At the time she refused to charge this same Officer with the use of excessive force in another incident.
Let's hope that cop is charged with murder. Even if it gets dropped to manslaughter, he deserves jail time for his actions. Full sentence, no early parole.
Unfortunately, he was most likely doing what he was trained to do.
Wow. Big shocker there, huh? Unreal. This dangerous creep shouldn't have been on patrol!!!!! Or on the force PERIOD.
He also worked with the man he murdered. Nice cop
More like...Minneapolis officer who murdered George Floyd had 18 previous complaints against him: police. I guess getting rid of dirty cops down there is just as hard as it is up here.
Unions have to stop keeping these racist pieces of garbage in a uniform. We have the same issue in this country with the RCMP and Indigenous people. All Officers will be smeared with the same verdict if they don’t charge that man and the others today.
There's a 20 warning forgiveness rule.
G eor ge So ros trying to start a race war. That's all this is, it election season.
And in addition he was on stage at a Trump Rally.😞
