Daniel Pantaleo To Be Charged In Eric Garner’s Choking Death
According to New York Daily News the Justice Department will attempt to formally indict NYPD Office Daniel Pantaleo by the end of 2016 in the civil rights probe of the Eric Garner police chokehold murder, says judicial experts earlier this week.
Garner’s case was entrusted to the Department of Justice in D.C., which has since overruled recommendations from the Brooklyn prosecutors and FBI investigators not to indict the NYPD cop, according to sources close to the probe.
The New York-based feds determined they could not bring a criminal civil rights case against Officer Pantaleo for Garner’s death — leading the Department of Justice to take control of the case.
