The white University of Cincinnati police
officer who shot unarmed black man Samuel Dubose during a traffic stop
has been indicted on a murder charge, a prosecutor announced Wednesday,
saying the cop "purposely" killed the motorist and "should never have
been a police officer."
In announcing the charge against officer Ray
Tensing, Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters lambasted the cop over
the death of Dubose, 43, saying the fatal shooting was "the most asinine
act I've ever seen a police officer make."
Dubose was pulled over July 19 for having a missing front license plate.
During the news conference, prosecutors played footage from Tensing's body camera.
