Christopher Roeder, 50, was found guilty in February of deprivation of rights under color of law and falsification of a document. He was sentenced Thursday to 14 months behind bars. Roeder had been directing traffic in a construction zone four days earlier when he was reportedly clipped by the rearview mirror of Peter's pickup truck. Four days later, Roeder spotted the motorist who had hit him and arrested him. While booking him in at Hadley police headquarters, shocking surveillance shows Roeder elbowing the suspect in the face, breaking his nose.

Never-before-seen colourised footage has brought to life the horrors US pilots faced while carrying out bombing raids across Germany during the Second World War. The film was shot in 1943 by director William Wyler, who went on to win Academy Awards, while he was flying on dangerous bombing raids. Wyler flew in B-17 missions for the US Eighth Air Force and captured footage for his famed war movie, The Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress. Now, a new HBO documentary called The Cold Blue has used restored footage from Wyler to show the brave airmen of the US Eighth Air Force. 🗿 #history #movie
