Tommy Yancy, veteran of the Afghan and Iraq wars and father of two, was beaten to death by CHP after they pulled him over for not having a front license plate in Imperial, CA, this past Sunday, Mother’s Day.
A witness to the event claimed he was not resisting arrest at all, but was first attacked by a police K-9, hit with a taser, and then beaten by five officers until he died.
Another witness said that Tommy Yancy was “mad” and “uncooperative” during the traffic stop, but that police went too far in their beating.
A close friend of Yancy described him as “shy, and a comedian” an “excellent dad, who kept in contact with his army buddies every week.” His sister-in-law, Jaqueline Hernandez, described him to as “a very loving guy, loved his kids to death… they were his everything. Very funny down to earth guy, and loved by all”.
I don’t care if this man was belligerent, you don’t kill people for belligerence or even for taking a swing at an officer, especially when there are 5 cops around who can easily subdue him.
The incidence of police brutality in this country is skyrocketing as we see the federal gov’t arming themselves to the teeth, our Constitutional rights stripped and gun control measures being enacted across the country.
The government is conditioning us to ‘absolute domination or suffer the ultimate price’ by hiring these thugs and turning them lose on society.
There is so much rampant police brutality now it almost seems that brutalizing and killing people is part of some initiation process.

MURDERED
It is quite disturbing when a human can be beat to death in public and just because people see badges they let it happen ,so I guess if hoods went and bought uniforms and f**e badges they could do this all day long and no one would be the wiser ,so if someone dresses up as a cop and goes and shoots real cops don’t be surprised if no one gets involved ,you reap what you sow !
Wtf? Where did all the police go wrong? Tommy was a veteran who served our country!! And the police killed him why cuz he was black? That makes no difference. They killed the one person who had their backs when he left to go over seas and fight for us after the 9/11 attack on us? Were those policemen on crack? Id have heads rolling if something like that happened in my family!!!
I so agree with you on this sir!!
Please don’t tell me the murders are still free!
Too sad for words. My condolences to all the Yancy family and friends.
If this is the way its going to be, I’m arming up and will defend myself, family, friends and My Property…….. This is TOTAL BULL$#%&!@*!!!!!
That’s some bull $#%&!@*
