He is not a murderer in the sense that he had forethought in his actions of ill intent.

He accidentally killed a man and for that he was convicted of “Involuntary Manslaughter”.


He did, however, act recklessly and with willful disregard for human life. That's Murder 2.

And it wasn't an accident. You don't draw a weapon by accident.

Nope. There is no evidence that he choose to act reckless or willfuly disregarded the value of anyone’s life.

“And it wasn’t an accident. You don’t draw a weapon by accident.”

He drew the WRONG weapon. That means it was an accident.

I see you're still trying to convince everyone that the cop intentionally murdered this guy in front of his fellow officers and a dozen witnesses in broad daylight.

lol....
