It makes it just what it was for the dead guy. It was an unfortunate mistake. The officer didn’t intentionally shoot the man and kill him.
While the man’s death remains a tragedy, I am glad an officer didn’t shoot him in the back casually, or out of anger.
Somewhere there was a breakdown here. Training may have been sub-par, or perhaps the age thing played into this.
What we can agree on, is a man is dead and he shouldn’t be. I am very sorry that is that case.
No he intentionally fired a weapon at him.
He said taser, and fired right at him.
It just was not the weapon he thought he was firing. But it was a deliberate firing of a weapon at the guy.
So is the dead guy.
