Wow. All of these years of education and I don't even know what an accident is. I thought it was like, something you couldn't control. Like when you slip on the ice or slice your finger with a paring knife.
I didn't know that punching and kicking someone and then denying them any medical care could be an accident.
The dictionary shows us an accident is the 'undesirable or unfortunate happening that occurs unintentionally and usually results in harm, injury, damage, or loss; casualty'
Some one please show me where they punched and kicked him. Read facts and not what you want to think may have happened.
There is a simple test: If you, or I, or a bouncer at a bar, or a security guard at a grocery store took the same actions, would the police say "it was an accident"? Of course not.
The video of the officers laughing about it and then dragging a hogtied man with many broken ribs out the door when the jail nurse says that they won't book him because he is so injured ('by accident' right Rosie?) can be found here: http://videos.oregonlive.com/oregonian/200…
Skip up to the point at about 10:20 in the video to see how they may have accidentally punctured his lung with his broken ribs.
Sizer makes me sick. Thankfully, she'll be out of the chief's office by the end of the summer.
Rosie says "...I believe that the Portland Police Bureau and the individual officers have been unfairly demonized. James Chasse's death was a horrible accident and not a "beating death." That's what the Bureau's investigation showed, and nothing in the litigation proved otherwise..." and we need to remember that what we saw on the film shown repeatedly is at considerable odds to Rosie's recall and we also need to remember that as the most to loose in all this "litigation" was her and her dumbassed minions and they aren't in the least bit above "selective remembrance" and outright lying to further their cause(s) and that we must temper any and all things said by this dizzy gal--who, Praise God, is short-timer at PPB with days clocking by till she's gone--by WHAT WE SAW, not by what they say we saw!

Oh, and there's this:
"Nice kicked Chasse in the chest and armpit area."

Read facts and not what you want to make up to trash-talk commenters on a blog.
"Humphreys told detectives he struck Chasse in the head again with a closed fist when he saw Chasse try to bite him again."
The punch and kick were not in the autopsy/cause of death.
