NEW YORK - A white New York City police officer who killed an unarmed black man with a banned chokehold in 2014 should be fired, a police judge recommended on Friday in a case that stoked the Black Lives Matter movement and reverberated in the U.S. presidential campaign.
His death, and the slow-moving investigations that followed, have generated some of the harshest criticisms of Mayor Bill de Blasio during his tenure and have spilled over into his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination. Protesters chanted “Fire Pantaleo!” during de Blasio’s opening statement in Wednesday’s presidential primary debate in Detroit.
The department immediately suspended Pantaleo without pay for 30 days, following standard practice, while the recommendation undergoes final review. The police commissioner is expected to follow the judge’s recommendation, CNN reported.

“This is not justice for the Garner family, because justice for the Garner family would have been a federal proceeding or a criminal proceeding in the local court,” Sharpton said. The family still hoped to have the U.S. Congress hold hearings on the case, he said.The powerful police labor union, the Police Benevolent Association, condemned the outcome and said the departmental judge had caved to “grandstanding politicians.
