Oh, I have witnessed that scenario firsthand, too. Same situation, a young deer seriously messed-up from a vehicle crash. Officer had to radio-in to get clearances from a sergeant and a lieutenant to shoot a deer 3-feet away twisting in the underbrush. It was heartbreaking the officer was not given trust to make a correct decision and then notify superiors. For goodness sake, it was a humanitarian task.
