Speak Out: UMD Student Beating Trial

Let us know what you think in comments below

 

The trial of two Prince George's County police officers in the beating of a University of Maryland student is over.

Officer James Harrison Jr. was found guilty of second-degree assault, but not misconduct in office and Officer Reginald Baker was found not guilty of both charges.

McKenna's attorney also claims that Prince George's County agreed to pay ten students involved in the incident $3.6 million in settlements with $2 million going to McKenna.

So we want to know if you think justice was served. Did one officer deserve to get convicted and the other not? Should both officers been found not guilty? Let us know in comments below.
