in a statement, tamir rice's mother, samaria rice, said -- "in a time in which a non-indictment for two police officers who have killed an unarmed black child is business as usual, we mourn for tamir, and for all of the black people who have been killed by the police without justice. in our view, this process demonstrates that race is still an extremely troubling and serious problem in our country and the criminal-justice system. i don't want my child to have died for nothing and i refuse to let his legacy or his name be ignored. we will continue to fight for justice for him, and for all families who must live with the pain that we live with." samaria rice also questioned the prosecutor's motives, saying -- "mcginty deliberately sabotaged the case, never advocating for my son, and acting instead like the police officers' defense attorney." attorneys for the rice family have asked the justice department to intervene over what they called extreme bias and a charade process aimed at exonerating the officers. the prosecution faced criticism for an unusual grand jury -- the justice departmen
