South Carolina cop Michael Slager laughed about his “pumping” adrenaline shortly after he gunned down an unarmed black man, a new recording revealed.
The North Charleston patrolman talked to a senior cop about what to expect after he fired five rounds into Walter Scott’s back in the deadly April 4 shooting.
The senior officer suggested he jot down his thoughts once his adrenaline stopped pumping.
“It’s pumping,” Slager said with a laugh.
Weird reactions result from confronting and overcoming super stress (even life and death) situations do lead to an incredible adrenaline rush. I won't condemn Slager for that: it's normal.
I'm assuming this took place before he realized his lie had been caught on a cell phone camera. I doubt Scott's family was laughing, and now neither is Slager.
Michael Slager, the South Carolina police officer caught on video shooting an unarmed black man who was running away after a traffic stop, is reportedly heard in new audio laughing about his "pumping" adrenaline immediately after the incident.
The audio was obtained by The Guardian newspaper, which said it came from the dashcam of Slager's police cruiser and was recorded in the hour after he shot and killed 50-year-old Walter Scott on April 4.
In the recording, a man the paper identified as Slager can be heard asking an unnamed senior officer what would happen next.
"They’re gonna tell you you’re gonna be out for a couple of days and we'll come back and interview you then," the senior officer is heard saying in the clip. "They’re not going to ask you any kind of questions right now. They’ll take your weapon and we’ll go from there. That’s pretty much it.”
The senior officer also urged Slager to write down his recollections of the incident.
“The last one we had, they waited a couple of days to interview officially, like, sit down and tell what happened. By the time you get home, it would probably be a good idea to kind of jot down your thoughts on what happened,” he advised. “You know, once the adrenaline quits pumping.”
“It’s pumping,” Slager said, laughing as he spoke.
Very typical of cops. Cops are the lowest form of humanity on Earth. I hope this cop gets life without the possibility of parole, and is placed in the general population in prison. My guess is that he wont make it past the first week once the other inmates discover who he is. But, in all fairness, if true justice was served, he'd have plenty of company if we put all the cold blooded murdering cops in prison. But, as we all know, 99% of the time, cops get a free pass in our courts and judicial system. And what's even worse, we have cops investigating cops, law enforcement agencies investigating cops, and government funded so-called experts examining evidence.Michael Slager Cop In Walter Scott Shooting Reportedly Heard Laughing Afterward

What remains to be seen is if justice is served of it the old boy's club recues this disgusting racist fucker.
The comment had nothing to do with Walter Scott. It is a reaction to the adrenaline. Another fail.
You run the length of a football field. Then fight with someone trying to get at your Taser and or gun some of that time with someone fighting with you on the ground during which time you have travelled another football field length. Then you are Tazed.The comment had nothing to do with Walter Scott. It is a reaction to the adrenaline. Another fail.
Why was he pumping adrenaline? From drinking a Red Bull for breakfast? Crawl back into your bubble.
Well maybe he's mentally ill. We thought you all sympathy for those types.
I guess that's only if it's Criminals.

Sort of pathetic pal.
Shooting a black guy is like hunting a big game bear for white guys. They are afraid of the Black guy but feel like they have proved their manhood by shooting him. Typical response to fear.The comment had nothing to do with Walter Scott. It is a reaction to the adrenaline. Another fail.

I guess you never experienced an real adrenaline kick.“By the time you get home, it would probably be a good idea to kind of jot down your thoughts on what happened,” the senior officer said. “You know, once the adrenaline quits pumping.”
“It’s pumping,” Slager said, laughing. The senior officer replied: “Oh yeah. Oh yeah.”
