Summary
Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond dismissed a felony assault charge against Sgt. Joseph Gibson, a police officer who slammed 71-year-old Lich Vu to the ground during a traffic ticket dispute, breaking his neck.
Drummond stated the officer acted within his training and lacked criminal intent, adding that Vu should not have touched Gibson.
The dismissal sparked criticism from Oklahoma County DA Vicki Behenna and outrage in Oklahoma City’s Vietnamese community, citing Vu’s language barriers during the incident.
Gibson’s actions were initially deemed an unreasonable use of force by prosecutors.
It’s obstruction of justice. Politicians won’t learn they’ve fucked around enough until citizens start ambushing pieces of trash like this in public. They want law and order? We will bring them the order of law. Unilateral accountability starts with motivated citizens like you and me.
