The entire command staff of the Rochester Police Department resigned after a week of ‘protests’ [violent riots] over the death of Daniel Prude, an unarmed, naked black man who died seven days after he was restrained by police. He had to be resuscitated at the scene after being held down for two minutes. Prude was high on PCP and had serious physical and mental problems.
Rochester Police Chief La’Ron Singletary said in a statement that he was honored to serve the city in upstate New York for 20 years and commended his staff. However, he said the protests and criticism of his handling of the investigation into the March 23 incident “are an attempt to destroy my character and integrity.”
“As a man of integrity, I will not sit idly by while outside entities attempt to destroy my character,” he said in a statement. “The members of the Rochester Police Department and the Greater Rochester Community know my reputation and know what I stand for.”
Mayor Lovely Warren informed the Rochester City Council that in addition to Singletary, the entire command staff announced it would be vacating their roles today. She noted that none of the police leaders were asked to resign.
RIOTERS, UH, I MEAN MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS ARE EVEN MORE EMPOWERED
The local agitators are thrilled and want the ‘protesters’ to continue on.
They wrote on Twitter, “We accept Police Chief La’Ron Singletary’s resignation and the resignations of the entire RPD Command Team. Our movement for justice is winning, and it’s because of this incredible community, showing up night after night.”
“Let’s keep the pressure up until all those responsible for Daniel Prude’s murder and cover-up — including Mayor Lovely Warren — have resigned, taken responsibility, and donated their pensions to the families they allowed to be harmed. Together we have the ability to hold those in power accountable and bring an end to systemic police violence in our community.”
Donate their pensions?

Mayor Lovely Warren said she has no intention of resigning.
Every night, lunatics, some from out of the area, rage through Rochester. This is what is considered effective and it will get worse.
LUNATICS RIOTING ARE NOW CHERISHED PROTESTERS

Here’s a lesson I believe many are learning … when it comes to voting, ALL ELECTIONS ARE LOCAL. If they thought it was, “safe,” or inconsequential election Democrat mayors, counsel people, BOY ARE THEY FINDING OUT THE EXTREME ERROR OF THEIR WAYS.
This death is very likely to reveal same as it did with George Floyd … enough opioid coctail, drug combination, to kill several full grown men. And as with George Floyd, the findings will be carefully hidden remotely as possible.
SOON as I heard he was on Fentynal, I KNEW what was coming. The white “brick,” pictured on his tongue estimated to be approx 2 miligrams. Fentynal is so powerful, it is dosed in MICROGRAMS, 1/1000th of an mg. Add to that meth and cannabis, what you have is a man with lungs drowning in his own secretions … why he was foaming at the mouth … WHY he was complaining he couldn’t breathe while sitting UP in the back of the squad car.
Floyd’s lungs were SO FILLED with fluid on autopsy, they weighed 2-3 TIMES normal lung weight.
We keep hearing about another man, a man with a warrant for sexual assault, VIOLENTLY fighting police. Likely he too was loaded with drugs as twice a taser had zero effect. We keep hearing all about the guy, “paralyzed from the waist down,” but does ANYBODY even KNOW the name, Shay Mikalonis? HE is the 29 year old Las Vegas police officer shot in the head by Edgar Samaniego.
Officer Milalonis is still on a vent unable to breathe on his own. HE is paralyzed from the neck down and will likely live what ever few years he may have permanently on a ventilator.
That lesson should have been learned long ago but was not.
These guys who fight off 2 cops and make it back to their car are likely on stimulants.
And the entire top of the Rochester police force resigns with no national reaction. The USA is very sick.
Those who gathered in restaurants and were abused; are they satisfied with mob justice. It will be quite interesting to see what the election results will be in all these cities.
The BLM and ANTIFA terrorists didn’t force the resignations, it was the politicians who refused to back them up when they did their jobs and this is happening all over the country in cities run by Democrats. The Democrat politicians are throwing law abiding citizens under the bus in favor of terrorists.
So true.
This IS NOT by “happenstance”…it IS by design !!!
Interesting to see how things work out when the mob rules.
The Marxist Revolution continues to make America a lawless country, one city at a time if necessary.
