The most troubling aspect of this case is that there is so little information being released to the public.

I am troubled by an officer emptying his entire clip into a suspect. A suspect who is reported to have put his hands up in an attempt to surrender...

I have been trying to imagine what circumstances had to transpire for the officer to do this...

I can only imagine that if a struggle for the officer’s gun took place and at one point control of the weapon had been in doubt, then the officer was probably operating on an overload of adrenaline and he may not have even have been aware that he was firing his weapon...

I think that the authorities need to make an attempt to release some information that may help the public at large to make sense of this tragedy. They need to do this sooner, rather than later as the clock is ticking...

They released the officer’s name this morning, and the robbery was mentioned again, but little else.
