“Boone, Hays, and Myers encountered a man identified as L.H. in the crowd and arrested him. The undercover detective, a 22-year veteran of the police force, was dressed as a protester and providing information to officers about potential criminal activity in the crowd.

According to the indictment, Boone, Hays, and Myers used unreasonable force: throwing the detective to the ground, kicking him, and hitting him with a riot baton “while he was compliant and not posing a physical threat to anyone.”

When they learned that he was an undercover officer, the three men then lied about what they had done and accused him of resisting arrest, the indictment said. They tried to contact L.H. to convince him not to pursue disciplinary or legal action, and Boone, Hays, and Myers also met with or texted various potential witnesses to try to get them to join the cover-up, the indictment states.”

things we really have to stop:

  • using fat people to illustrate greed
  • using thin people to define health and happiness
  • using fat people to depict illness and sadness
  • moralizing health
  • bringing up a fat person’s health at all
  • using fatsuits
  • the use of headless fat people in news reels
  • using fat as an insult
  • thin people jumping in on conversations about the lived experiences of fat people and making it about them
  • the idea that a fat person who is in comfortable clothing is “sloppy”
  • basically, treating fat people any differently than a thin person
