I suspect the paraphrase in your final quote is incorrect. The NAACP and the Law Office of Christoper Carney can certainly try their hand at a civil suit, but they cannot file criminal assault charges. Only the city/state can do that.

According to Bible, they can file charges under CrRLJ 2.1c (pronounced Krill, or at least that's how they were saying it.) According to another case I found:

"CrRLJ 2.1(c) does not require the Citizen Complaint be prosecuted by
the elected prosecutor and where, as here, the prosecutor has an obvious
and inherent conflict the court should appoint a special prosecutor, under its
equitable powers."

I guess we'll see what happens next Friday.

Hurrah.

It's about time the local NAACP in league with innocent black citizens assaulted by the cops start taking serious legal action against them.
