Jury reaches verdict clears corrections officers in Amit Borenstein case

 Is there any accountability??
APP TRENTON – Monmouth County corrections officers did not violate the civil rights of Amit Bornstein in the two struggles that preceded his 2010 death in Monmouth County Jail, a federal jury found Friday. The family of the 22-year-old Marlboro man sat silently as the jury forewoman read soft, but firm "no's" following questions on whether each of 11 jail officers violated Bornstein's rights by using excessive force. Bornstein's father, Israel, who brought the federal civil lawsuit, said he could not speak after hearing the verdict.
