Racist Cop Cleared After Shooting Home Invasion Victim 6 Times

Just minutes after an armed homeowner apprehends a man who broke into his home, Tony Arambula called 9-1-1 and waited for police to take the bandit to jail. “Little did we know that who we called to save us would hurt us and change our lives forever,” said Tony’s wife, Leslie Arambula, “The police dragged my husband out of our house by the leg that they had just shot him in…my kids and I were witness to my husband’s bloody body just laying there.”

The man who was desperately trying to protect his family during the home invasion, was shot a total of six times – including once in his back, once in his hip area, once in his forearm, and three more times while he was on the ground.

Officer Brian Lilly openly admits to being responsible for firing six shots at the distressed homeowner. “My husband didn’t shoot Canales (the intruder) in the back because he thought that that would be the wrong thing to do,” says Leslie. “But unfortunately Brian Lilly didn’t have a problem shooting my husband in the back without any commands.”

This brings me back to CNN’s Rick Sanchez’s heated discussion with Arizona’s Sheriff Joe Arpaio, surrounding racial profiling. During that interview, Sheriff Arpaio stated he granted more than a million dollars of government funding…all to get rid of illegal immigrants!!! So guess what the disturbed Sheriff started doing? Don’t know? I’ll tell you – Harassing Mexicans (even those born in America). Sheriff Joe claims that law enforcement officers can determine illegal aliens based on characteristics including speech and attire!!! WTF???

It’s clear to me that Tony Arambula has unfortunately fallen victim to what Sheriff Joe Arpaio preaches. When cops arrived at the scene of the burglary, Officer Brian Lilly saw a Mexican (Tony), and automatically assumed he was the criminal…Is this America – “The Land of the Free”???????????

Now, the Arambula family is suing the Phoenix Police Department for almost $6-million. “Everybody in the circle of command here knew it was Tony with the gun,” says the family’s attorney, Michael Manning. “They (the cops) didn’t try to calm or diffuse the situation, they immediately opened fire without doing anything, and shot the man in the back.”

Shocking audio from 9-1-1 dispatch tapes reveal Tony’s plea to his wife after taking half-a-dozen bullets to into his body. “I can’t believe this is happening to me!” “Leslie, I love you…(bleep)….I love you.”

Doctors say Tony Arambula is now looking at a lifetime of pain and arthritis, adding that he may been looking at losing one of his hands.
