You are very wrong. And this evil beast masquerading as a cop is going to hell but stopping in jail before he gets there.
If he is following his training, that may stop him from losing his pension, but it will not stop him from going to jail. Bad training is an excuse for unions, but not for juries.
I think it is very likely the shooter will end up in jail.
I never said anything different.
I disagree with your characterization of the event as murder.
The officer, from what I saw, made a bad, split second decision, in a very high stress situation. Then they did not have the control to stop shooting.
Bad training is something juries consider all the time, because they are supposed to use the “reasonable man” doctrine, which is:
What would a reasonable man do in the circumstances the individual found themselves, knowing what they knew at the time?
Acting reasonably is a defense.
What they knew at the time includes how they were trained. It is exactly the stuff that juries take into consideration.
The person shot was not acting as a reasonable man. He made many very bad decisions over a number of minutes.
He lost his life as a result of those decisions, which made him highly vulnerable to a spit second mistake by a police officer.
