Sandra Bland was arrested on July 10 because of assaulting a police officer after a traffic stop, video evidence shows that the officer asked Bland to put out her cigarette but she refused, he arrested her right after. She was found dead in Waller County jail 3 days later after supposedly hanging herself with a plastic bag, there was no cameras in Bland's cell only cameras in the hallway.The police officer shouldn't have pulled Bland out of her car because there wasn't no reason to, he should have just gave her the ticket and walked away, if he would have did that then she wouldn't be dead right now.

 Tom Robinson was arrested trialed because he accused of raping Mr.Ewell  daughter Mayella. He was going to be put in a jail out of the county so that he can be safe but he supposedly tried to escape and he ended up being shot 17 times in the back. The police officers that was watching Mr.Robinson should have chased him instead of shooting warning shots at him,  those police officers should be charged with murder but they won't because they was just "warning him".

These two incidents could have been avoided but two African Americans ended up dead because of either discrimination or the testimony's the police gave. Tom and Sandra was both innocent.
