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.
That depends. If the officer alleges the suspect took one of his weapons, then that should make it evidence and part of a crime scene. And should remain undisturbed and secured.
“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.”
Nonsense. As soon as the officer fired his weapon, the location became a crime/investigation scene. You don’t move evidence in a crime scene simply because you don’t want to leave department property on the ground. If you are worried that a bystander will walk off with it, then keep an eye on it (or have someone else do the same).
a(2) absent supplies, about the only care you can provide in that situation is to position the individual so that he doesn't aspirate.

I'm sorry but your logic is driving me crazy.
His backup was coming so he moved the tazer to where he could say the perp dropped it after being shot. His backup would not know any different and might make it a clean shoot.
“You don't leave department property on the ground”. You do leave that property on the ground and don't touch it if it is part of a crime scene.
The cop “clearly” planted a weapon. This is a bad cop. The perp might not be an angel but the cop is a murderer. It appears the cop was angry at the perp and too lazy to chase him so killed him. Unless he gets the death penalty it won't be enough.
This is one of the most sickening videos I have ever seen the only thing that makes me sicker is knowing that without the video he would have gotten away with it.
