The decision of the jury does not mean it was lawful. It is just the conclusion the majority came to

The same way a jury can incorrectly conclude someone to be guilty / not guilty 

I'll repeat, the jury came to their decision based on all of the evidence in court. Not just what the policeman said. It's not as simple as that.

The problem many have is they believe (based on the evidence) that Mark was not in a position to cause harm and therefore unlawfully killed. It's really not that hard to understand

Life choices are to blame for his death, not the police.

Quite simple, good job done by the Police, no need for investigation or trial.

The Police have done their work and its clear that their training in such scenarios was put to the test with a successful outcome. Well Done

fucked thing in that game is the untold amount of people that unofficially work with the police & they can easily line you up if they want revenge

 

 

Hmmm, have sort of indirectly been dealing with an issue like this for the past few months.

It's a sad day for the friends and family of Mark Duggan.


It has today been announced that his mother has had her appeal against the lawful killing verdict rejected by the court of appeal. The decision was made despite the jury now knowing he was unarmed.


Duggan, 29 at the time, was shot dead by a police officer in 2011, leading to nationwide riots in protest against his death, which many believed to be unlawful.


Marcia Willis Stewart, the family's solicitor of Birnberg Peirce solicitors, said, “We need to take time to consider this decision and then decide what action to take.”


The family’s barrister, Hugh Southey QC, believed the coroner "directed the jury that the lawfulness of the lethal force, and the question of whether V53 was acting in self-defence, should be judged solely by reference to V53’s honest belief as to the threat posed”.


He continued, "They were not told that, in deciding whether the belief was honestly held, they should consider whether or not that belief was based on reasonable grounds.”
 

“That consideration was, as a matter of common sense, an inevitable part of the exercise that they had to carry out,” said the court in summary of their verdict.

thats deep still, he felt responsible just because he was an expert who recommended the type of bullets used in the operation that killed Mark Duggan, and was bullied for it at work

Couldn't care less about the copper, but I find it funny when road rappers who on one hand celebrate their own violent exploits, but when the cops kill their associates, all of a sudden they want to be Al Sharpton... Man like Mark get head shots on the roads daily and end up just another dead criminal. Like it or not
