Background...all captured on officer's dash cam...officer pulls over a car with four men inside. He immediatelynrecognizes the guy in the backseat is wanted for a serious crime he allegedly committed the night before. Armed robbery, if I recall. The video is out there. Its difficult for me to copy/paste more than one with my Ipad.
He's alone. He draws his weapon. Yells for no one to move. Keeps yelling for no one to move. Says he'll shoot if anyone moves. He's obviously scared to death. The OTHER video shows the suspect in the backseat take his arm off the headrest and move it down out of sight. Officer shoots. Shoots. Shoots. Shoots. Man dies.
The video above shows the aftermath. They were unable to find a gun, although thru most of this video, the cop doesn't know that. He just knows he killed someone.
Cops are human beings who just want to go home to their families at the end of their shift.
