Timpa lawyers vow to appeal fed court ruling

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Geoff Henley Henley & Henley, P.C. [phone] [email protected]   Dallas - After a federal judge dismissed their civil lawsuit, lawyers for the family of Tony Timpa stated they intended to appeal the decision. In a 27-page ruling, Federal District Judge David Godbey stated that even if the officers violated Timpa's constitutional rights, the suit was barred by qualified immunity.The judge stated that no specific decision from the Fifth Circuit Court of appeals prohibited the officers from smothering Timpa for 14 minutes on August 10, 2016. Judge Godbey specifically made no decision about whether the officers' violated Timpa's Fourth Amendment rights. "This is exactly why qualified immunity must be abolished or at least modified," the family's lawyer said. "It allows officers to continue to use force that we all see and know to be excessive simply because there is no previous ruling prohibiting precisely the same kind of force.

Hey, remember In 2016 when we all burned down our own neighborhoods to protest the police killing #tonytimpa in the exact same way that #georgelloyd was murdered? Oh you you don't? What? Nobody rioted? You're telling me you never heard about it? Yeah, me either. Stop destroying your own community because you think burning down your friends and family's businesses is somehow going to undo what those thugs in uniform, monsters did last week.

Sickening video shows #Dallas cops laughing and mocking mentally ill man as he loses consciousness while being restrained before being told by a paramedic that he is dead. ----------------- R.I.P #TonyTimpa, 32, died in 2016 while being held on the ground by police officers in the street. He had called 911 and told the operator that he was not only off his medication but had taken drugs and needed help. Police officers put him in handcuffs and flipped him onto his stomach, placing a knee on his back, to try to 'calm him down'. ------------------ The officers joked and laughed for six minutes, mimicking Timpa and snickering about a 'cocktail' of sedatives he would receive in a mental health facility as he slowly lost consciousness and died. @video2fone #video2fone https://www.instagram.com/p/B0nikZ0ArCB/?igshid=hcf4vir8ed3q
