New ‘civil rights hero’ just dropped: Career criminal shot and killed while attacking cops…
April 16, 2025 (2 hours ago)1/2
Here we go again. Another violent career criminal with a rap sheet a mile long gets himself killed while attacking police — and the left immediately tries to turn him into a civil rights saint. This time, the name is Deshawn Dante Leeth. You probably haven’t heard of him yet, but you will. Because just like George Floyd and “Gentle Giant” Michael Brown, Leeth is being posthumously scrubbed clean and rebranded as a “community leader” and “loving father” by activists and the propaganda media.
Here’s what really happened and the dark truth about this so-called community leader who had a rap sheet a mile long.
Police Incidents:
“From Nonprofit Leader to Fatal Pursuit:The Final Hours of Deshawn Leeth
On April 4, 2025, an Ohio trooper approached a man, now identified as 30-year-old Deshawn Leeth, who had crashed his vehicle on the side of the turnpike near the state line. After about 20 seconds, the man starts to run away. When he comes back toward the cruiser, the trooper uses a Taser, but it did not work and a fight begins. The video shows punches being exchanged, and at one point, Leeth gets the trooper on the ground. He was able to overpower the trooper, climbing on top of him and knocking his body camera loose. Bystanders attempted to de-escalate the situation.
“Leeth then runs away and takes off in the trooper’s cruiser, triggering a multi-agency response. The pursuit came to a halt in North Sewickley, Pennsylvania, when Leeth crashed the stolen cruiser. Video from the scene shows Pennsylvania State Troopers attempting to restrain him as he resisted arrest. Ppolice said an altercation took place, and investigators fatally shot Leeth . Police have not said whether Leeth had a weapon.
Prison records show he pleaded guilty to nine home invasion charges across two cases that date back to 2012. When he got in 2023,he became the executive director of a non-profitfocused on helping at-risk kids and preventing teen violence.
Even after all of that chaos and criminal behavior, the left has still fired up the GoFundMe machine and started revising history.
This is how they’re now painting Mr. Leeth. Pay close attention to that image they’re using in the X post:

The wholesome image used in the GoFundMe post looks nothing like the violent man caught on bodycam footage.
And as we all know, bodycam footage doesn’t lie — and once again, the truth is ugly. So without further ado, meet the violent, unhinged man the left is trying to package as their next civil rights hero.
By the way, compared to this guy, career criminal George Floyd looks like a creampuff.
