A federal judge deny qualified immunity? I'm struggling to contain my incredulity. There are instances where cops shot people who were unarmed and attempting to comply, where filmed doing it from multiple angles, and the cops still walked.

There also cases where cops shot people and the cops went to jail, but nobody talks about those.

Of course not. The justice system actually working shouldn't be remarkable enough to warrant a news cycle.

Federal courts do this routinely on cases brought before them. But most victims can't afford the court system. Here is a recent, typical one:

"New Brunswick, N.J., police drive their patrol car into fleeing suspect. Officers: We parked in his path, and he rode his bike right into us. Third Circuit: Video inconclusive. No qualified immunity.
