Mario deserved to be happy
By Bob Walsh
Mario Woods, 26, attended an interesting Charter School in the People’s Republic of San Francisco. Many of the students are jail prisoners and probationers. He received his high school diploma yesterday…posthumously.
Mario Woods (who was black) knifed a man for no particular reason in S F on December 2. When confronted by the cops he refused to drop the toad sticker. They nailed him with a few beanbag rounds with no luck. He was shot to death by five SFPD officers, only one of who is white. (SFPD does not issue Tasers to officers.)
His mother said of her son “God had something great for him. He deserved to be happy.” Maybe stabbing people made him happy. He had already done a seven year stretch for robbery. Maybe robbing people made him happy.
The five officers who shot Woods have all recently been returned to modified duty. The DA and IA are still looking at their case.
