Latest updates say video shows him reaching in car. Pcp found in car. His record of criminal behavior long. As a policeman u are told this but you are just suppose to sit back and potentially lose ur life by letting the thug clearly make his intent known, which could mean u being shot. The facts do need to come out but don’t get suckered into ehat facts the media leaves out.
Do you have the source for this information? PCP could be why he ignored the cops and the taser.
I don’t care if he reached in the car. I don’t care if he had a rap sheet. There were four cops, three male with vests on. The cops had guns. He was against the car. I am not going to say this was murder. But it was at best, horrible police work. And at worst it was manslaughter.
And nobody tried to help or comfort the man once we was down. That cop needs to be off the street looking for a job she can do. The city needs to pay that mans family a million dollars. And black men are not by nature dangerous. But if you are a black man clearly cops are very dangerous.
Protocol says you do not use lethal force unless you see a weapon or the suspect charges you. All this points to an accidental discharge. The woman heard the taser deploy and accidentally fired.
I know a deputy that had a shotgun pointed at him and didn’t fire. He said he didn’t feel threatened because of the distance and he was behind a car door.
