France Surrendering As Fast As Possible
Two Muslim “youths” run from the police, trespass into an electric substation to hide, then kill themselves by touching the wrong thing. Massive riots break out, causing millions of dollars worth of damage and thousands of torched automobiles.
And the French prosecute the cops: 2 French police face pre-riot charges.
PARIS - A judge in the Paris suburb of Bobigny has charged two police officers in connection with the 2005 electrocutions of two teens whose deaths sparked three weeks of rioting in France, officials said Thursday.
The two officers were charged Wednesday for “non-assistance to people in danger,” which carries up to five years in prison and a maximum $97,400 fine, judicial officials said on condition of anonymity in line with policy.
The decision came more than 15 months after Zyed Benna, 17, and Bouna Traore, 15, were killed as they hid from police in a power substation in the Paris suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois.
