“Probably and based on this case it would have been yet another case of deadly force being used incorrectly.”
Your first statement: “how would he ever handle a real criminal?”
The taser wasn’t ‘deadly force’. It wasn’t used incorrectly.
If it had been a ‘real criminal’ and he had a ‘real gun’, then the officer would have been justified in using his own gun. (Or should he let the real criminal go because the real criminal insists that he doesn’t have a gun?)
“The taser wasn’t ‘deadly force’. It wasn’t used incorrectly.”
I was referring to the gun you said he would have used with a criminal. If he used it correctly then why was he retrained and why did they pay the other jerk?
“If it had been a ‘real criminal’ and he had a ‘real gun’, then the officer would have been justified in using his own gun. “
Oh so being a ‘criminal’ is not grounds for deadly force. Guess you’re just throwing away all those civil rights.
