ACAB Radio - Episode 18




The SNLS Network show

Summary: ACAB Radio is a police accountability podcast that is broadcast LIVE every Tuesday on Facebook out of Las Vegas by 2 local activists from Food Not Bombs Las Vegas and Nevada Cop Block. We're your hosts: Kelly "Special K" Patterson and Jay Lyfer. We focus primarily on local, national, and global police news stories that make headlines every week. We also discuss issues surrounding the homeless crisis here in the US and abroad. We cover these topics because it's something that we are all very passionate about, but we do talk about other stuff too. We hope you all enjoy the show!

The #ACAB Radio Las Vegas Pirate Podcast Episode #18: On this show we discussed the LVMPD's refusal to comply with public records laws, even after they've been ordered to by judges. The latest example is the failure to release information on arrests for sex trafficking related offenses (while several members of their vice squad and the district attorney's office are currently being investigated by the FBI for involvement in sex trafficking and the protection of local pimps). Once again, we're reminding people about the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's actions on the behalf of Officer Kenneth Lopera, who murdered Tashii Brown at The Venetian Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip last year on Mother's Day. It's been announced that there will be a public "fact finding" review held where they will attempt to justify Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson's decision to drop the charges against Lopera. Of course, they picked September 11th as the date for that Orwellian titled hearing to ensure people's attention will be elsewhere.

This video shows a Baltimore Police Department cop beating an unarmed and compliant man. (While a Good Cop watches and does nothing to stop it.) - https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/crime/bs-md-ci-police-incident-20180811-story.html Other topics include the tazing of an 87 year old woman in Georgia, use of "bait trucks" to entice people into committing crimes, an entire police department in Arizona that consists of cops who were fired by other departments (surprisingly one of them was busted recently with child porn on his computer), video of a cop intentionally ramming a man on a bike with his patrol car and much more.
