State police did not open an administrative investigation into the troopers’ use of force until 474 days after Greene’s death.
Haley also spoke during Thursday's rally, calling for charges against the officers: “Let’s call this what it is – it is criminal,” Haley said. “The world saw on those nine videos that were released how Ronnie Green died. … Did it look like a damn car accident?”
“What did it look like?” he asked the crowd.
“Murder,” came the response.
Greene's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit about a year ago, Haley said. Greene's death is the subject of a federal civil rights investigation.
