Leader Of BlackLivesMatter Says Sandra Bland Was Murdered

By Chuck Ross, July 25, 2015 Daily Caller

DeRay McKesson, one of the leaders of the #BlackLivesMatter movement who is being wooed by the Hillary Clinton campaign, has wildly speculated that Sandra Bland was murdered even though all evidence suggests she committed suicide.

It’s not a surprise the 30-year-old McKesson is spreading falsehoods and innuendo in the aftermath of Bland’s tragic July 13 death. He did the same following the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. last August and the death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore in April. He has also floated conspiracy theories following the shootings of VonDerrit Myers last October and Tony Robinson Jr. in March.

Video Shows How Traffic Stop Escalated Into Confrontation

By Michael Graczyk, July 22, 2015 Yahoo

HEMPSTEAD, Texas (AP) — A police dashboard video released Tuesday shows that a Texas state trooper tried to pull a black motorist out of her car, then drew his stun gun and threatened her after she refused to follow his orders during a traffic stop.

The roadside encounter swiftly escalated into a shouting confrontation as the officer attempted to drag 28-year-old Sandra Bland from her vehicle, with the officer at one point saying, "I will light you up," as he held the stun gun.

Days later, Bland was found dead in a jail cell in a case that has caused her family and supporters to dispute that she hanged herself with a plastic garbage bag, as authorities have said.

Petition Calls For Attorney General To Investigate Sandra Bland’s Death

By Uptown, July 17, 2015 Up Town Magazine

A ColorOfChange.org petition is calling for U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch to investigate the suspicious death of Sandra Bland while in police custody. The police claim Bland took her own life and local District Attorney Elton Mathis handed the investigation back to the Texas State troopers, the same agency that allegedly used excessive force when arresting Bland.
Here’s the email Rashad Robinson and the rest of the ColorOfChange.org team sent out today explaining the situation and calling for Lynch to lead the investigation:

“You just slammed my head to the ground. Do you not even care about that?”

These were some of the last words of 28-year-old Sandra Bland. On Friday, Texas State troopers pulled Sandra over as she was driving to her new job for allegedly not using the turn signals during a lane change. What happened next was all too familiar and terrifying.
