If the girl's actions suggested in any way that she would be willing to kill the cop just to get out of the lockup I'd accept some pretty aggressive behavior on his part.

This was clearly her second attempt at escape that day.

So, if the girl, let’s say prior to the video, made fists, snarled, and said, “I’ll kill you if you put me in that cell.”..

In your view, if this occurred the LEO is exculpated for his actions on the video.

Is that a correct statement of your opinion?
