Key witness gone missing in Fullerton
police murder of Kelly ThomasA key witness who video-recorded the heinous and brutal beating death of mentally handicapped Kelly Thomas has gone missing. According to the following videotaped interview of a Latino man named "Edward", a Fullerton cop confronted a woman in her forties who was videotaping the gruesome beating of the homeless man on July 5th at the Fullerton Transportation Center. When the cop attempted to confiscate her cell phone camera, the woman resisted and the cop grabbed her and the camera and isolated the witness behind a police squad car. Edward believes the woman was arrested and taken away. Attempts to locate the witness have been fruitless and some Fullerton citizens fear foul play.

Note: If video fails to start reload page and try again.When Edward was asked to describe the cop that grabbed the camera, he alluded that he might be an hispanic. The only hispanic cop that was present at the scene along with the one-eyed cop, Jay Cicinelli and four others, is Officer Manny Ramos according to Los Angeles KFI radio. Southern California has been plagued recently by serial bad hispanic cops. There is a policy in most Southern California police departments to hire just certain "hispanic cops" that are self-hating and have no scruples to beat up other Latinos and to support the criminal actions of other cops such as the beating of the homeless, the mentally ill and other helpless people.
Edward says in the interview that he was questioned by Orange County District Attorney investigator Stan Berry. This investigator must know what happened to the missing witness. Is she in jail or worse, is she dead? Also, what happened to the witness's video recording that was confiscated by the Fullerton cop? Do not hold your breath waiting for the answers. Orange County District Attorney investigator Stan Berry is an intimate friend of the Fullerton Police Chief Michael F. Sellers.
