When cops kill, redress is rare - except in famous cases

By Lawrence Hurley and Andrea Januta (Reuters) - The death in Minneapolis on Monday of George Floyd, the black man captured on video pleading for his life as a white police officer kneeled on his neck, has prompted three nights of protests, at times giving rise to violence, arson and looting. It has also trained, yet again, a national spotlight on a perceived lack of police accountability for violent encounters with the American public.
