Grand jury votes six to one not to indict officers

February 25th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Not a sur­prize to Kaycee Faught or her attor­neys but the grand jury voted six to one not to indict the two Coquille police offi­cers that caused the bro­ken neck of Carl Fos­ter dur­ing an arrest. After speak­ing with Kaycee today she is under­stand­ably dis­ap­pointed but is nev­er­the­less con­fi­dent that her father will receive jus­tice for his injuries.

Fos­ter is learn­ing how to redi­rect air from his ven­ti­la­tor to allow him to speak. Now that Fos­ter is learn­ing to speak his lawyers have begun inter­view­ing him about details of the arrest. The recent grand jury deci­sion in no way exon­er­ates anyone’s con­duct in this matter.

    Peo­ple have to unite to end this type of cover up. Cit­i­zens have to band together to force our lead­er­ship to take this mat­ter seri­ously. No one pay­ing atten­tion believes that the offi­cers behaved cor­rectly in this inci­dent. No one.

    Once again a very broad assump­tion, maybe you should talk to some­one out­side of your cir­cle for a change..
