LAPD officer CHARGED with assaulting woman leading to her death

Maybe LA can finally see some justice. A bit of it, at least.
(CNN) -- A Los Angeles police officer has been charged with assaulting a woman under arrest, Alesia Thomas, who lost consciousness in a patrol car and was declared dead soon thereafter, prosecutors announced Thursday.
Mary O'Callaghan, 48, was charged a day earlier in a felony assault case, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office.
The prosecutor's office said it will request $35,000 bail for the officer who, if convicted, could spend three years in state prison.
O'Callaghan's lawyer didn't respond immediately Thursday afternoon to a CNN request for comment.
But Tyler Izen, president of the Los Angeles police union, issued a statement saying "the alleged actions of the officer are incongruous with her reputation as an officer who was known to be diligent, courteous and ethical."
The charge stems from an incident July 22, 2012, when police investigating a possible child abandonment went to Thomas' home.
This was after Thomas had dropped off her two children at a police station because she felt her drug abuse had made her an unfit parent, according to Los Angeles County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas.
At the mother's home, police talked with Thomas and arrested her.
It was then that O'Callaghan arrived on scene, helping her fellow officers put Thomas -- then wearing handcuffs and leg restraints -- in a patrol car.
Video captured what happened next, the prosecutor's office said, including "O'Callaghan kicking Thomas in the stomach and groin area and pushing her in the throat."
Thomas lost consciousness in the patrol car, then was transported by paramedics to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
Prosecutors said they didn't file involuntary manslaughter charges against O'Callaghan because it couldn't be proven that she directly caused Thomas' death.
Her official cause of death was "undetermined," according to a coroner's report.

Getting charged and getting convicted are two different things.. I'm not really that surprised when a cop is charged with a crime.. When they're actually convicted, then I'm surprised.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline
