- The Tacoma Police officers exonerated by a jury in the death of Manny Ellis are voluntarily resigning from the department. All three officers will receive a $500,000 payout. "Labeling these officers as criminals and calling for their firing and prosecution was a reckless, political witch hunt," said Tacoma Police Union IUPA Local 6 in a statement. The Spotlight has details on the settlement and reaction from the Tacoma Action Collective who supported the Ellis family.

Defunding the Police is pretty expensive
I don't think this is what they meant by defunding the police
If any Union should be busted it should be the police officers Union talk about Mafia
Not guilty by a jury.
Good for them! Hope those men move out of that state and start anew with the opportunity that they have been given.
Right, and OJ DIDNT DO IT!
This is why the state will continue to be worse
Half a million to cops
Who killed somebody
So what about all the civilians in past who protected thier selves from corrupted cops?
Do they get a nice payout?
I’m guessing your one of the cops 👮♂️ 👮♀️ 👮

Ellis's family got 4 millions .....hypocrites
I think it’s twisted thinking at play here. The men were exonerated, but can’t, after all this negative publicity, be expected to go back out into the community and work without a backlash. As I see it, the 500k is compensation for losing their careers.
Bob Fergusons political ploy just cost taxpayers more money.
City government has no balls
1) These "activists" have zero sense of community responsibility or social integrity with their neighbors. And that TPD caved to the pressure shows both their weakness and the reason for people's unwillingness to jump into what was aleady a thankless job made even more difficult by corrupt politicians and social justice wackjobs.
2) The person who stole from these volunteer community servicemen and women either had zero scruples or was looking for something to pay for their next drug fix.
3) I agree with Lindsey that this well-intentioned effort to recycle old and damaged cell phones is not working as advertised and providing an indirect and unintentional incentive for theft of personal communication devices. At up to $120 each, a savvy pickpocket or quick lifter could net $10,000 in a week for stolen phones.
4) It's not at all surprising that there are stalkers and kidnappers on the loose, considering the hit police departments have taken over the past five years. Politicians hamstring them with legislation and then get people to denounce them as incompetent or corrupt for their legal inability while making big bank from the campaign donations those same people are suckered into giving and smearing those who oppose them for enabling or even perpetrating said crimes.
5) Good on this mother, though efforts of this type rarely come to any fruition because of two factors: The drivers was innocent of intent and distracted or guilty of intent but savvy enough to remove any identifying marks.
6) People should have the wherewithal to avoid sex at all until after they get married because laws like this are ineffective. Often the result of a consensual one-night stand by lonely individuals with total strangers, the violated usually can't remember the violator's face or name because they never expect to see them again and don't commit such details to memory. You can't regulate the behavior of people who refuse to be regulated.
7) Liberal-run states and jurisdictions have little awareness of the causes for homelessness, of which there are many: Domestic violence, substance abuse and mental illness are just a few. They have even less desire to find meaningful solutions because perpetual issues mean perpetual income from those who are affected but either too ignorant of or too poisoned against the other side to look elsewhere for effective solutions.
That is heartbreaking!
With 500,000 in hand, start a new life in Montana or any other state, but WA . With what happened here, no way would we stay in WA.
500k each????? Damn i need a new career
Don't joke. In liberal areas, even if you're liberal yourself, you get no love and even less respect.
@@justindurfee9375 😂😂😂
Move down here to my beloved home State of Texas.
336 people relocated in an entire year. They spent 25 million dollars...do the math how much is that per homeless person.
Revelation 6:10 "They called out in a loud voice, 'How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" NIV
Blood money 💰 ?
hmmmm lets look at the facts. .THEY WERE NOT GUILTY.. how you gonna say BLOOD MONEY?
Blood Money...put down the meth pipe and use your brain..THEY WERE NOT GUILTY.

Stealthing isn’t rape. Sorry.
what is STEALTHING?
@@lauradill1447 it’s when the man removes a barrier device during consensual sex without telling their partner.
@@thereissomecoolstuffnot relevant to this convos but it is rape.
Rape is penetration without consent , Stealthing is penetration without a condom without consent , if there is no consent then it IS rape , it is sexual assault .
@@thereissomecoolstuffthats rape
So you have to pay off murdering police officers to get them to leave the force and they just go and apply for another within 20 mi of where they should have been fired not paid off
Not guilty in court.
It’s safer an cleaner in Russia
Back in 2012 Tacoma PD killed one of my soldiers a young black sergeant (E5 type) on the day that he was PCS’ing. He was trying to go say goodbye to his girlfriend when does car that was driving by and I have a history of pulling the trigger jumped on his car and shot this young black US soldier. What make matters worse is what they did next they tried to paint the picture of the soldier as being a thug when they didn’t even know the soldier.
Tacoma PD HAS A HISTORY OF KILLING YOUNG BLACK MEN, AND OR TRYING TO FRAME THEM WHEN THEY ALL THEY TRYING TO DO IS DELIVER PAPERS……..
steal equipment . from Emegency service . WTF
Get rich being a cop
How so
4 yrs of Admin leave cost these cops thousands and thousands of dollars in OT and it kept them off the street. More people suffered.
@@thereissomecoolstuffyou mean more people got to go home to their families.
@@tridie420 I mean more people like the KIA boys got to terrorize our community because there wasn’t enough cops to catch and arrest them. More women were beaten and didn’t report it because it took to long for a cop to show up. These cops aren’t killers. The people that tried to send them to prison are. Glad the jury wasn’t afraid to find them innocent like they were in Minneapolis
@@tridie420 just disband your cops already. Why aren’t you
Wish I could 500k to not work as a corrupt cop
They took millions away from them by forcing them to quit. The taxpayers also had hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in training and equipment. Imagine being forced out of your career because you were innocent of a crime.
That is the most distasteful joke about anything short of abortion I've ever read.
@@justindurfee9375 great. You should read more. Tacoma lost 3 good cops due to politics. It cost the tax payers $4 million and counting. The joke is the action of the mayor declaring these cops murderers before due process. They were innocent and did not kill him. He knowingly killed himself. Drugs do that. 1050 OD deaths in 2023 in King County. .
So the city of Tacoma rewards the three officers instead they should be barred from all law enforcement work. Officer Chris Burbank just got hired on as Thurston County Deputy sheriff what if it happens again with another black man or someone else.
half a mil to leave?...
ok....I was never really very on board for the whole defunding the cops thing even though i don't like cops ,i recognize the overall job they have.
that being said, if we can pinpoint bs nonsense funding like this and stop it that'd be great.
FTPD 😊
