An accidental shooting isn’t murder. It’s an accidental shooting that resulted in a fatality.
The officer clearly states he didn’t intend to shoot the guy.
This is bad enough without the anti-police theatrics.

They need to commonalize on phasers.

Reserve Deputy Robert Bates, 73, shouted "Taser! Taser!" before pulling the trigger on his gun, firing one round into Harris. So, if someone shouts "Fuzzy Kitten, Fuzzy Kitten!" before pulling the trigger on a LAW rocket aimed at a police officer, it's ALL GOOD?
"Gosh, I thought I reached into my Go Bag for the Fuzzy Kitten!"

Now that’s funny.
Well, they do have a license to kill, but this doesn’t sound like an instance where he should have used his license.
0073, good one...
One wonders if age related confusion entered into it. The guy may be a rather spry fellow and fully capable. He sure blew it here.

Sad that he was shot accidentally, BUT, he should NOT have run from the police. When will people learn? You're right! The Founding Fathers, who spent most of their lives running from the authorities, ABSOLUTELY didn't want their descendants to run from the police.
I'm sure they would have condoned these executions WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
I think one of them said: "We must all not run together, or assuredly we shall all be shot in the back separately."
Or something like that...

Yeah those body cams explain the whole situation in CQB.
To: Paladin2
Yes, and if it’s by your service firearm, it could be a danger like in this instance.
Just think how bad you would feel if you meant to taser Gabby Hays and shot him dead.

If a man is so emotionally weak that he can’t handle chasing someone without losing total control of himself and he totally forgets what his job is and that he is at work, then he should never have been a cop.
That was a very lame excuse, chasing people is just a routine part of being a cop and always has been.

The officer clearly states he didnt intend to shoot the guy. We haven't heard from the other side yet. The guy he shot stated that -- oh, wait, he's dead.
