The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office announced on Monday.
I really wish I was surprised instead of just angry. But no, of fucking course a white AG in Mississippi sees nothing wrong with the extrajudicial police murder of a black infant over the theft of diapers. ACAB remains true, and I don’t care if the cop believes they’re in danger, they clearly have no idea what actual danger looks like, and they get paid putting everyone else in danger.

I wonder if having a black AG in Mississippi instead would have made a difference in this case?
