Nearly a week after this incident, Jim Amormino, spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department said he had no idea if the passengers versions of events is or is not consistent with the deputy's version.

Do you actually believe this?

Yes

You do understand after officer involved shootings, or any shooting for that matter, it's extremely critical to interview the witnesses immediately?

This is very important to get their account of the event while it is still up front or fresh in their memory. If this was not the case, the Sheriff, and all those involved in this investigation, need to resign.

You can bet the rent, there were formal statements taken from both passengers within hours after this event.

I can assure you, OCSD knows *exactly* what the two young witnesses stated, that day.

No offense, but if ya believe Amormino's statement he did not know if the passengers statement was consistent with the deputy's statement, you'll believe anything.
