Right, right. As you noted earlier in the thread, you think it was a justified shooting because.....he put the car into gear. OK.
Given that the cop was investigating the incident and hadn’t gathered all facts beyond a reasonable doubt yet (that’s the job of the courts, cop is just trying to figure out WTH is going on and apprehend _suspects_), that “put the car into gear” was on top of the strong likelihood of a DUI in progress involving several additional violations & suspicious behavior turning into a DUI while fleeing police in a residential/educational area.
You’d rather a drunk be racing around at high speeds with lots of pedestrians & other vehicles in the area?
Again, not “beyond a reasonable doubt” proof in court, but the cop did stop what could reasonably have turned into a drunk killing several people.
