They’re job is NOT execution. If they don’t understand that they shouldn’t have that job. They’re entrusted with too much power to get decide they don’t trust the justice system. They are the iron fist of the justice system, if they don’t trust it they should quit.
You notice we never get this kind of crap from military police. Which is funny since you know they’re in the military first and are trained to kill. But MPs are also trained to NOT kill. And face incredibly stiff accountability with automatic reviews of almost any use of force and very high penalties for being found in the wrong. Time for lots of that in civilian police. Accountability. they have a high duty, they need to be up to it.

You have several cops shooting at once over an interval of about 8 seconds. In the dark.
They already all knew he had shot at cops, and it’s dark enough that they can’t be sure of what he might or might not still be holding. And a guy on the ground can still squeeze of a shot and hit a cop.
