White Pennsylvania State Trooper Is Fired For Arresting A Black Trans Who Clearly Broke Several Laws

The Pennsylvania State Police are no longer employing the state trooper who arrested Philadelphia transgender and husband LGBTQ+ officials back in March 'it's not cause you're black.' "We can confirm he's no longer employed by our department," a Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson said on Friday, May 10. Pennsylvania State Police said that the state trooper initially pulled over a gray Infinity sedan for 'multiple Vehicle Code violations.' Morrison's husband reportedly pulled up behind the trooper's car, and police said the driver was 'verbally combative' and 'resisted arrest.'

Darius McLean can then be heard saying 'it's cause I'm black' —— The trooper replies 'It's not cause you're black'. According to reports the trooper said: 'This was a simple traffic stop cause you didn't have your lights on. You didn't have your lights on and you're tailgating.' Both were taken into custody for resisting arrest, obstruction of justice, disorderly conduct, and other related charges. They were released on Saturday without being charged.
