The wires are still in the man and extend as he runs away from the cop.
That doesn’t happen if the man has the taser in his hand.
After checking the man, the cop goes back, picks up the taser and drops it next to the man.

Hope the skunk burns, feel sorry for his pregnant wife.
You’re saying there’s no possibility that the presence of the wires did not register as such in Slager’s field of vision, which in a situation like this becomes tunnel vision when he reaches for his sidearm.
