Cop who stopped Elijah McClain fired over chokehold photos

Cop who stopped Elijah McClain fired over chokehold photosOne of the three white officers who stopped Elijah McClain has been fired over photos showing colleagues reenacting the chokehold used before the Black man died last year, according to documents from prosecutors. After officers stopped McClain on the street last August for “being suspicious,” Aurora Officer Jason Rosenblatt tried to use a chokehold but couldn’t because of his position, so another officer did, a report from prosecutors said. Two months later, Rosenblatt received photos from three fellow officers who smiled as they mimicked a chokehold at the site where McClain was stopped, which had become a public memorial.
