Post 53.
Sorry, you’re right, I did say jogging. My mistake. “Scratches head.” I have RA in both knees and can creep along at 3 mph. A young man walking normslky could easily be doing 5mph, which is 7.33 fps.
If I were on a jury I would carefully consider all the evidence and be open, on the basis of demonstrated facts, to form a different opinion. But on the basis of what’s in the published accounts, it looked like Schultz planned and intended to present a credible threat to the LEO, and he succeeded.
Schultz planned and intended for the cop to shoot him, and he succeeded there, too.
Whether the cop had, say, 6 seconds, rather than 3 seconds to react, is, I think, a quibble. It’s only subsequently -— in hindsight-— that they knew exactly what kind of “knife” he was holding.
