(47,245 posts)Why did McDonald have the knife in the first place?
Did he have mental health problems?
I'm not excusing that cop one bit.
I just would like to know.

(25,657 posts)A second autopsy report found PCP. He was slashing police car tires. He was wandering around the streets with a 3 inch knife. He had a history of theft. But, no history of violence from what I have read. The police were trying to talk him down when mcdonald arrived and assassinated him. There is no audio. I bet if we could hear what all of the police officers said after he was killed it wouldn't be pretty.

(47,245 posts)I got beat up by a guy on PCP, he kept saying it was "my fault" for something I never did find out what.
Same guy got busted repeatedly, and made national headlines.
