Only One® convicted

The transit officer who killed Oscar Grant in a subway has been convicted:

A Los Angeles jury convicted a former Bay Area Rapid Transit police officer Thursday of involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of an unarmed man on an Oakland train platform.

I'm not sure that any murder charges are appropriate, so all's well that ends well.

I also note this burst of common sense from the prosecutor:

Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O'Malley indicated that she was "disappointed and frustrated," because "this was not the verdict we sought."

"The case is a tragedy in every respect. Oscar Grant should never have been killed at the hands of a sworn officer," O'Malley said.
Of course, this is Los Angeles .....
