-- Can they shoot me just because I drive away from a traffic stop? --

I'd just add, there are two ways to answer that question.

Can they do it? Yes. And if they hit you, you will be seriously injured or dead.

If they do it, will the courts side with the cops? That's a fact intensive inquiry, but it is strongly biased in favor of the state.

Unfortunately that is the case. As in this case you have two cops lying to protect the third. But fortunately in this case you have the unbiased witness of the body cam that clarifies the matter.
