Outrage Mounts Over Death of Staten Island Man

During a Friday press conference, De Blasio said that he was "deeply
troubled" by the footage and called for a thorough investigation into what
happened to Garner, a father of six who suffered from asthma and diabetes.
NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton has already acknowledged that the maneuver
his officer used "would appear to have been a chokehold," which was banned
by the Department 20 years ago.
.
Witnesses say that Garner's fatal encounter with the police began just
after he'd broken up an argument on Tompkinsville's Bay Street, where he
was a fixture known for sometimes selling untaxed cigarettes. A group of
cops (who may have been called to the scene over the fight) reportedly
questioned Garner about his cigarette business and, according to what "law
enforcement sources" told SILive, they took him down after he "absolutely
resisted arrest" and "took a fighting stance." In the recording of the
incident, Garner can be seen waving his arms and pleading to be left alone
right before an officer begins choking from behind. He can also be heard
repeatedly shouting "I can't breathe!" before going silent.
.
The New York Times reports that Garner had been arrested at least 30 times
over his cigarette hustle, which he took up after his poor health forced
him to quit his job as a Parks Department horticulturist. From the Times:
.
For years, Mr. Garner chafed at the scrutiny by the police, which he
considered harassment. In 2007, he filed a handwritten complaint in
federal court accusing a police officer of conducting a cavity search of
him on the street, digging his fingers in my rectum in the middle of the
street while people passed by.

On Saturday, hundreds of people gathered at Harlem's National Action
Network to hear Reverend Al Sharpton address Garner's death. "There are
many crises that we are dealing with but none have impacted more and more
than the reccurring problem with the New York City police," said Sharpton.
"This is going to be a real test to see where policies are in the city now
and whether the change that we feel occurred has occurred." (Sharpton
added that De Blasio called called Garner's widow and mother, Esaw Garner
and Gwen Carr.) Another rally was held later in the day on Jersey Street
in Staten Island.
