Well this is interesting. Time magazine has done a piece on Ramsey Orta, the man that shot the footage of Eric Garner’s final moments. He revealed to the new source that at times, he regrets not minding his own business.
According to Ramsey, the public scrutiny put his life “in a messed-up predicament.”
He’s been arrested three times since August 2014. The first, for criminal possession of a handgun he allegedly tried to give a 17-year-old, came a day after Garner’s death was ruled a homicide by the city’s medical examiner. In February, he was arrested again on multiple charges of selling and possessing drugs. The third came on June 30 when he was accused of selling MDMA to an undercover cop. A lab test later showed that the alleged MDMA was fake and the charges were reduced. All told, Ramsey is facing more than 60 years in prison if convicted on all charges.
