Justice Department to reportedly charge cop in Eric Garner’s death
More than two years after an NYPD cop was caught on camera putting Eric Garner in a chokehold, the US Justice Department says it plans to charge the cop.

More than two years after former NYPD cop Daniel Pantelo was caught on camera putting Eric Garner in a chokehold causing his death, the Department of Justice Department says it plans to charge the NYPD cop.
Daniel Pantelo may be charged
According to the New York Post, an anonymous source said the Justice Department plans to bring civil rights charges against Pantelo in the 2014 death of Eric Garner.
“It’s going to happen sooner than later,” the source said of an indictment. “Washington wants to indict him.”
Federal investigators in Brooklyn were replaced by DC counterparts because of their reluctance to bring charges, the source said.
The New York feds are privately seething. They accused their Beltway colleagues of trying to “make an example out of Pantaleo” at any cost, said one source familiar with the case.
“We already … came to a conclusion which they didn’t like. It’s truly disgraceful what they’re doing,” the source said.
