A grand jury in Texas decided Thursday not to press any charges against a white police officer recorded on video apparently roughly handling a black teenage girl at a pool party last year, according to CBS DFW.
A video of the incident posted to YouTube went viral after former McKinney, Texas, officer Eric Casebolt threw the girl to the ground, sparking immediate outrage and criticism of the police department.
In the video, the officer is seen assessing the situation of a neighborhood pool party in which a fight between a mother and daughter broke out. The girl who would eventually be tossed to the ground, her face pushed into the ground by Casebolt, can be seen asking officers to call her mother throughout the entire ordeal.
It's unclear from the video what, if any, involvement the girl had in the fight prior to officers arriving at the scene.

But the jury decided to toss the investigation out entirely, reporting there wasn't enough evidence to press charges against Casebolt, according to CBS DFW.

Well Deckard, stick this up your Black Lives Matters libtard ass. ACT LIKE AN URBAN ZOO ANIMAL... get put on the ground.
"not to press any charges against a white police officer recorded on video apparently roughly handling a black teenage girl at a pool party last year"
She was put on the ground and detained because she refused multiple requests to leave the area.
Since race was not a factor (remember that a white girl was also detained), how about, "not to press any charges against a police officer recorded on video apparently roughly handling a teenage girl at a pool party last year"?
