If a man is unarmed, not a fleeing criminal and not threatening an officer, where is the justification for shooting that person? Unless some facts are missing, that officer gets my guilty vote if I’m on the jury.

On this thread we are presented with this scenario.

1. the driver was speeding
2. the offers tried to pull him over
3. he did not pull over
4. he drove all the say home
5. during the chase, two police cars were damaged (sirens had to be going off with lights flashing)
6. once home the driver pulled in his driveway
7. he excited his car swung around
8. he raised his hand from a blind spot toward the officers
9. his fingers were moving during this process so the officers could easily think he was manipulating a device, a gun
10. the officers had reason to think he was belligerent, harboring hostility toward the officers

You go ahead and think the officers were at fault here.

Don’t expect me to join you.
