Yes, he suggested that their motivation for lying was that he was a white cop. Right or wrong given the media up-roar, if there were people who came forward after the fact, it is entirely possible.

But he called them liars based on the DA's statement that their testimony did not match the testimony of others or the evidence.

Neither point is based on any solid facts. But that does not mean he thinks they are obviously liars because he's a white cop. He thinks they lied because he's a white cop.

To me it seemed like you were taking a stance of, [Stop defending him, because he's a white cop].

I don't want to defend anyone in this situation because it looks like there are allot of wrong people in this, and I know everyone wants to talk about the past in this conversation, but we can't control or change that at this point. Where it stands now if things are going to improve in the US they need to work on mutual respect and trust, and that has to come from both sides. People basically exaggerating or falsifying their statements to defend a member of their community at the expense of someone in another community will not bring about improvement weather White/Black/Brown.......
