If a police officer is allowed to shoot someone who he thinks is a danger to the public, does it really matter who fired and who did not? What jury is going to think that guy wasn't dangerous? It seems highly unlikely anyone would believe that.I'm not so sure. You could technically say he was fleeing, but if an officer has reason to believe he is a danger to the public, he can shoot that person. The guy was wacked out on PCP, acting aggressive and openly wielding a knife. I think that classifies him as armed and extremely dangerous.I'll wait for the dash cam video before condemning the cop, especially considering the kid was possibly on PCP.
See the dashcam now?
Can yiu count the number of people who tried to sweep this shit under the rug? But yeah, let the system work...the same system that didn't charge him with a crime until they were forced to release the video because of peotests.
The same system that allowed 3 cops to go into Burger King to tamper with video evidence and aren't facing any charges.
I'm sure this will turn out like the others. Taxpayers pay the police for their fuck ups and the cop won't do time. To which everyone can pretend the system worked.
I see this guy doing time
The time is against him for that defense.
He basically pulled up, got out of his car, and started shooting.
and the kid was moving away from him at the time.
Other cops on the scene before he got there werent' shooting, why did he?
