Watch the video.

They were in a dark backyard. The criminal had already thrown a brick through an old man’s sliding glass door. When police arrived on the scene he fled through several backyards, he knew he was being pursued. When the police yelled at him to show his hands he advanced toward them in the dark shadows of an unlit backyard. There was a flash of light from the man’s hands and the officers fired to protect themselves. There was no other reasonable course of action the officers could have taken.

Again, watch the video and review the facts.

I’ve seen the facts and they 100 percent prove this shooting was not justified. This man can’t be brought back to life. None of this would EVER warrant the death penalty. If you were CCW holder and shot this man under the exact same circumstances you would be headed to prison. Try using “it was dark” as a defense in court.

Lethal force is justified only if there is immediate threat to the lives and safety of others. That was not present in this case as can be clearly seen on the video.

“There was a flash of light from his hands”. You’ve got to be kidding. Flash of light but NO SOUND of shots fired from a few yards away? Is this the he could have had a completly silent silencer on his weapon defense? This is simply the justice system letting the police off the hook yet again. As I’ve said before no civilian would ever get away with this shooting.

What disturbs me most about these cases is so many people have been brainwashed to think this is ok. It’s not.
