Milton Hall - Saginaw, MI - shot 30+ times by police



Three days before Independence Day, Milton Hall died in a fusillade of police gunfire outside a strip mall. He had been arguing with officers in a parking lot next to a shuttered Chinese restaurant when he was shot, in full view of passing motorists and while he was holding some sort of knife. Saginaw County Prosecutor Michael Thomas said later that the squad of police confronting him opened fire "because apparently, at this point in time, he was threatening to assault police." Thomas' office and the Michigan State Police are investigating Hall's death. Saginaw Police Chief Gerald Cliff said Hall was "known to be an assaultive person" with "a long history" of contacts with law enforcement, "not only with police from our department but with the county.


Rest in peace Milton Hall.

Hello my sista!

This same thing happened about 10 years ago in Seattle where the police killed this brother who want mentally impaired and was holding a knife. Ironically, the same defense was used. What makes it so bad it that he was on the side walk,they were on the other side of parked cars. All he did was point the knife at them and the opened fire. It is still open season on us no matter what century this is.

Peace!

Peace In,


This brought tears to my eyes! Wow. No reason for this to have even happened.

RIP... M.H. May your mother find peace, forgiveness and understanding for these fools with badges and guns.

*side note* If I were her, I would sue them.
