It blows my mind that the guy who killed him is only being charged with manslaughter - last time I checked, killing a police officer was automatically first degree murder if it was intentional - which this clearly was.

Also note the names of the criminals: Nadeem and Baseer. ROP strikes again.

Ah, the sweet smell of caste systems ... not just for India anymore. Some people are more equal than others.

The tip-off was the identification of the suspects' being from Toronto, coupled with the studious avoidance of their actual names until the end.

Police ought to be doing a sting on the scumbag autobody repair businesses who knowingly buy stolen parts and create the demand for scumbags like these to steal them. Going after the theiving scum alone is not enough.

Manslaughter?

I thought that anytime someone is killed during the act of a felony, it was automatically first degree murder.

In my old department if your dragging a LEO in your getaway vehicle the drivers side of the vehicle should have had many many bullet holes in it from the LEO’s partners on the scene........assault with a deadly weapon (vehicle) warrants a response in kind and application of deadly force to stop the threat.........

The POS driving the car should have never lived to see the inside of a jail or courtroom IMHO.
