A male cop did the same thing except worse 2-3 years ago. Situation not as frantic, pulled his gun instead of taser, shot a guy who was lying prone on his stomach (but being fiesty) in the back. Thought he was firing taser. The guy died.

That's the end result of the "feminization" of the police force, driving away potentially good cops, and forcing the police departments to take whatever they can get.

That was in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Robert Bates was the officer...he was a 60 something Reserve Deputy who should not have been on drug sting. He got charged with manslaughter and was convicted at trial of 2nd Degree Manslaughter and got the maximum, 4 years in prison. She the suspect in the back...while the suspect was face down on the ground.
