Once the subject was in cuffs, the officer’s responsibilities included (I) checking on the medical status of the subject who had been shot, and (II) securing the scene. was in cuffs. Please tell me, what possible interpretation of the video could possibly justify the officer’s (a) failure to provide any first aid to the subject, and (b) move any object (any object, Taser or not) from one location to another?
b. You don't leave department property laying on the ground where you can't keep an eye on it and some bystander can walk off with it.
Not as inflammatory, but they make as much sense to me as a cop trying to "plant" a weapon that wouldn't help his case any.
Was it the taser he picked up near the suspect and put on his belt? I couldn't tell on first look.
Now, explain to me why it would be a good shoot if the deceased had a discharged taser next to him and probes in his clothing, but wouldn’t be a good shoot if he just had taser probes in his clothing, and had taken the taser away but dropped it on the ground at the point where he was fighting with the officer?
