The courts do not bring dead people back to life. The courts rarely if ever remedy any level of excessive force issue. We recently had a young women here in Texas shot by a cop from outside the home through the kitchen window. She was not a threat and was not committing a crime of any kind. Last update I heard was the officer is facing legal issues and the innocent women, killed in front of a child who she was temporarily caring for is STILL DEAD.
Sounds like crappy training, and maybe an idiot cop. If youre expecting cops to go out at 2AM without sidearms, youre delusional. There is no ideal, one-size-fits-all solution. The justice system doesnt bring back dead cops killed by criminals, either.
