According to the Mercury News -
"It takes me back to the day I saw the Rodney King video on TV," said Roger Clark, a certified policing expert and a retired lieutenant with the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department, where he served for 27 years.
The video tape was made by his roommate using cell phone and sold to Ho's lawyer, Nguyen hoang Duyen.
His roommate is an eyewitness and could not believe the beating of an unarmed classmate. The SJPD this year shot to death a mentally retarded Daniel Pham and so far has refused to release information about the case despite the community's request.
