Anybody that shoots an unarmed fleeing suspect in the back is wrong, unless he is wanted for murder or a heinous crime. I guess you think trying to kill a Mexican mule is fine regardless of the circumstances. I don't, and neither does the law. Even our soldiers in Iraq can't kill with abandon.

I got to thinking about it, and unless this guy had a street sweeper, he had to reload three times. Absolutely no excuse for that behavior, and a jury agreed with me.

Get over it.

"Get over it. "

We won't "get over it".

What we will do is remember who appointed Sutton.

First of all you need to learn to read about this case.

1. The officers thought the perp was armed.
2. The officers did not know he was a mule at the time of the shooting. Drugs found afterwards.
3. They did not know the perp was hit by their gunfire.

These convictions will be overturned on appeal because of jury manipulation by the foreman.

At retrial the officers will be found innocent or there may not need to be another retrial.

The judge needs to be transferred to Bangor, Maine and the prosecuting attorney needs to be transferred to the Aleutian Islands.

You need to get over it.
