He was just turning his life around...
All 5 charged equally with 1st degree MS?
Was Stavian Rodriguez actually armed, or was he just suspected of being armed? The article is not clear about that rather important detail.
Society’s relieved of another criminal scumbag.
Waste of 5 cops, IMO.
Every officer involved in shooting is almost immediately identified, unless they are a capitol police officer, in which case they are never identified publically.

I’m not a LEO apologist. When they do something bad, I criticize them for it. But, this is INSANE. A suspect who was an accomplice during an ARMED robbery ended up being shot because, if reporting is accurate, his responses to lawful commands during the arrest were - put charitably - unclear and ambiguous.
And for this, they’re doing five cops for manslaughter? GTFO. And, in Oklahoma, no less.
There was a great video floating around twitter last week of bodycam footage of two-cops responding to a potential domestic disturbance. It was AMAZING how quickly that incident went south for the responding officers. What a thankless, potentially deadly job.
Hardly anyone else in government is punished for doing their jobs, except police and soldiers.
Maybe folks from Tulsa need to come down the tollway and teach the citizens of Oklahoma City how to deal with criminals and their enablers.
Soros DA at work...
This should be a “no-brainer” for the jury...
Then the cops should sue the DA for harassment...
I would go with the Police Officers since they were real police and not FBI.
