[quote=Anonymous]I wish he hadn’t tried to flee. That is never smart.

That said, unless a suspect is known to be armed and dangerous, they shouldn’t even be engaging in high speed chases. Go find him later.

As to the senior officer who pulled her gun instead of her taser? Unconscionable. Maybe she has middle aged/menopausal brain fog, but she isn’t fit to carry a deadly weapon anymore. After her due process she needs to be barred from law enforcement forever. And I hope she is haunted by this - she certainly sounded distressed after she realized she shot him, so I hope that means she has a conscience.

Overall I’m sick and tired of this police violence. Cops are the reason I quit practicing criminal law. What I saw in my years as a prosecutor was soulcrushing, and I did my best to balance the scales by dropping charges or going light in cases where I saw dashcam video of cops being awful. Didn’t read the whole thread so don’t know if anyone mentioned the Lt. in Virginia who was assaulted by cops over a minor traffic infraction stop (and I don’t even think they had PC to stop him), but I’ve seen that kind of rageful aggressive policing on dashcam video way too many times. We have got to weed out these monsters. We have got to hold all the so-called good cops who don’t call out the bad ones accountable too. These people have a license to use deadly force, they need to be above reproach.[/quote]
