佐治亚州汉密尔顿的一名警察局长和一名警官在视频浮出水面后，被发现在一次会议上发表了评论黑人的命也是命抗议，美国广播公司新闻附属机构WTVM报告。
据WTVM报道，根据汉密尔顿市长助理朱莉·布朗的说法，汉密尔顿警察局局长吉恩·奥尔蒙德已经辞职，巡警约翰·布鲁克斯被解雇。
2020年6月，在汉密尔顿的BLM抗议活动中，两名警察都戴着人体摄像头。这段视频后来被公之于众。
在视频中，一名在镜头外说话的男子和一名在镜头前说话的男子用种族诽谤和露骨的语言发表了几条评论。
镜头外的发言人大概指的是2020年6月警察枪杀27岁的人瑞夏德·布鲁克斯据称，他在现场清醒测试中挣扎后，抓住了一名警察的泰瑟枪，随后被枪杀。这一事件导致了BLM的抗议，亚特兰大警察局长艾丽卡·希尔兹辞职，警官加勒特·罗尔夫被解雇。
布朗周一告诉WTVM，“市长和市议会在第一次观看视频后，迅速采取行动解除了局长和巡警的职务”。
“这太恶心了，”汉密尔顿市长临时代表兰森·法利告诉美国广播公司新闻。“事实上，他们在值班……当我们发现他们在一个半小时后就被解雇了，”他说。
“我感谢上帝，我们抓住了它，”法利说。“当你是一名警察，你有那种心态的时候。你如何保护和服务呢？”
试图联系汉密尔顿警察局、奥尔蒙德和布鲁克斯都没有成功。
Police chief, officer under fire after bodycam video surfaces with racial slurs, explicit language
A police chief and an officer in Hamilton, Georgia, are out from their positions after video surfaced of comments both are seen making at a Black Lives Matter protest, ABC News affiliate WTVM reported.
Hamilton Police Department Chief Gene Allmond is reported to have resigned and Patrolman John Brooks was terminated according to the assistant to the Hamilton mayor, Julie Brown, WTVM reported.
Both officers were wearing bodycams at a BLM protest in Hamilton in June 2020. The video has since been made public.
In the video, a man speaking off-camera and a man on-camera make several comments with racial slurs and explicit language.
The off-camera speaker presumably makes reference to the June 2020 fatal police shooting of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks, who was shot after allegedly grabbing a police officer's Taser, following a struggle during a field sobriety test. The incident led to BLM protests, the resignation of Atlanta Police Chief Erika Shields and the firing of Officer Garrett Rolfe.
Brown told WTVM that "the mayor and city council acted quickly to remove the Chief and patrolman after viewing the video for the first time," on Monday.
"It was disgusting," Hamilton Mayor Pro-Tem Ransom Farley told ABC News. "The fact they were on duty … when we found out they were terminated in an hour-and-a-half time," he said.
"I thank God, we caught it," Farley said. "When you're a police officer and you have that type of frame of mind …. how can you protect and serve?"
Attempts to reach the Hamilton Police Department, Allmond and Brooks were unsuccessful.
