MAN WHO FILMED ERIC GARNER'S IN THE HANDS OF POLICE HEADING TO JAIL [GRAPHIC VIDEO]
The man Ramsey Orta, 25, a friend of late Eric Garner is reportedly heading to jail to serve a four-year prison sentence after taking a plea deal a drug and weapons case.
Could he have been a target for the footage of the police killing he filmed and release?
At the end of this post is a link to a petition site to end police brutality and all that comes with it... Please endeavor to sign!
Orta filmed police officer (Daniel Panteleo) in New York kill his friend Eric Garner, 43.
Ever since the release of the footage, Orta says he has become a target by the police, in retaliation for the footage, - that exposed the much speculated police brutality against African-Americans in United States of America.
"I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe," - Garner reiterated on the floor as officer Daniel Pantaleo strangles him to death with a chokehold.
Though the case was ruled as a homicide but the murderer officer Daniel Pantaleo was not indicted... In my opinion, this officer deserves to be indicted and prosecuted duly, at least to deter other officers from these police killings and brutality.
Orta has incessantly been harassed by the police his lawyer argued and has been arrested at least eight times in less than two years.
"Hours after Eric died, at 4 a:m in the morning, there was a spotlight shining through my window. I looked out the window and there was a cop [police] car outside," Orta told Al Jazeera on Friday.
"They parked outside my house and stopped people coming in and out of my house. That was going on until the day they ruled it (Garner's death) a homicide. I've been arrested and let out many times. And now I am convicted of only two of seven cases."
Orta is suing New York City for $10 million for unwarranted arrests by NYPD that he says were attempts to discredit his video of Garner's final moments.
Diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and suffering from depression, anxiety and paranoia, Orta said:
"My biggest fear about prison would be not coming out alive. I fear for myself being behind enemy lines."
"I'm going in there with a level head. I'm praying that I can come right out and continue my life as an activist."
Stanley Cohen, a New York based lawyer and former social worker said Orta's case was an example of "vicious, retaliatory and vindictive" intimidation.
"They want to create an environment where people are terrified to speak up and out and be good citizens,"
"It's harassment not to undo the events of the murder of Garner as is it to deter the next filming of a police killing."
The police department reportedly killed 346 African-Americans last year and has killed 217 so far this year.
"I expected this police killings to end up where it is now, it's only gotten worse since it started. I knew from our past history that that video wasn't going to change anything," - Orta said.
"I don't want my situation to be a deterrent to people who continue to film, though I encourage others to take a stand."A petition by The America Civil Liberties Union calling on US Attorney General Loretta Lynch to investigate harassment cases has gathered over 20,000 signatures.

TURKISH GOVERNMENT DETAINS OVER 50 NIGERIAN STUDENTS OVER ALLEGED INVOLVEMENT IN THE FAILED COUP d'ETAT
The Turkish government detains over 50 Nigerians for alleged involvement in the failed coup d'etat that happened on 15th July, 2016. They are reportedly students of Fatih University, one of the private universities in Turkey.
A close relative of one of the students said:
"Upon arrival at Ataturk International Airport in Istanbul, they were all escorted to a room and their passport confiscated by Turkish police. When they enquired why they were clamped in a dirty room, the police said they are students of a terrorist organization. They offered to transfer them to government schools but on the condition that we will pay same fees as private universities."
The Fatih University is among the 2099 schools, dormitories and universities shut down in the wake of the July 15th failed coup in Turkey. The Turkish authorities said the schools and universities were terrorist schools because they have links with Islamic scholar Fethullah Gulen, whom the Turkish government had accused of being the mastermind of the failed coup attempt.
It would also be recalled that the Turkish Ambassador in Nigeria Hakan Cakil, had requested the Federal government to close down 17 Turkish schools in Nigeria for alleged links to Hizmet movement, a request which was turned down.
