Back in January 2009 I noted the death of 22-year-old Oscar Grant, an unarmed young man who was shot to death (in the back) in Oakland, California by Bay Area Transit Authority police officer Johannes Mehserle, and linked to a video of the shooting.
Mehserle is now on trial for murder. The defense contends that the officer intended to shock Grant with a Taser and mistook his gun for a Taser. For a story on the trial, click here.
