“He just made bad decisions in life and it cost him his,”...
No. I MADE a bad decision this morning by having an extra breakfast sausage when i need to lose weight.
This guy was a MONSTER.
And now he’s a DEAD monster.
And now folks on social media are blaming the police for the civilian deaths.
I didn’t read enough and I don’t know enough to know if it could have been handled better.
I DO KNOW who started this mess!!
Whatever procedure police did or didn’t follow, they didn’t wake up and decide to commit a brutal robbery gone bad
Yeah the cops should never use innocent civilians as human shields which they did when they kid behind cars stuck in traffic while they shot at the ups truck
I agree.
What I think happened was this was a very long pursuit with five different departments involved. Most likely there was no single person in command to tell them to back off in that situation.
Similar events happened to George Washington and US Grant when they were inexperienced and lost control of their soldiers.
The cops could not have botched this more. Its a UPS truck. Its not going anywhere. Follow it with a helicopter, wait till it runs out of gas and the bad guys run, but don’t surround it with dozens of cops on a busy highway. They killed the bad guys AND two innocent civilians.
