Roland Martin talks to Michael Wright of the Cochran Firm about John Crawford, an Ohio man who was shopping in Walmart for a gun and was later shot and killed by police officers, after a patron called the cops out of fear.

“This was an unjustified killing of John. He was doing nothing work and was shot and killed by the police,” Wright said. “It was a BB gun that was on the shelf. We believe he was purchasing the air gun.”

    This is criminal. It’s murder. The store video shows that he took the gun from a box that was already open. He took it and walked to another area of the store, all the time talking on his cell phone not focused on the people around him. He stopped in an area and continued to talk on the phone with his back towards the aisles so he wasn’t looking at anyone. When the cops approached him his back was turned to them, they said something to him and he turned and said something to them and then the cops shot him. AFTER they shot him they told him he should stay down but he was already down and screaming and dying. He happened to be talking to his children’s mother on the phone when he was shot. She said she heard him say “it’s not real”. Then she heard the shot and then she heard him screaming. She said there was no conversation, that’s all he said then she heard the shot and him screaming.

    “He was doing nothing work?” did you mean wrong?
