Also, the deputy’s department just cleared him of wrongdoing. Of course. Despite the fact that they admitted he lied on his report.
“...An internal investigation conducted by the sheriff’s office’s Officer of Professional Standards to see if deputy Azzara violated any written policies found that no agency policies were violated when he opened fire on the man while standing outside his home.
However, Azzara blatantly lied in his police report, claiming that Tench had opened his front door and pointed his weapon at him when the video shows Tench was standing behind a closed door just holding the gun....”

He didn’t “violate any written policies”? I suggest this pathetic excuse for a police department add a “written policy” that police shall not shoot into a citizen’s home at a person doing nothing illegal. And the nan was certainly not doing anything illegal!
