A "fortunate son" (one news account I read yesterday even used the term "scion") has taken a life in an act he calls "illogical" and has ruined his own young life. He had been taken into the campus cop shop after a welfare check on him had discovered drug paraphernalia in his dorm room. The slain officer's gun was still in his holster. I'm trying to wrap my head around the possibility that this "Reid" Daniels wasn't even frisked. Questions remain unanswered in fatal shooting of Texas Tech police officer | Lubbock Online | Lubbock Avalanche-Journal
This seems like too-casual policing to me. He wasn't in handcuffs, the officer was alone with him and doing the paperwork, and somehow Daniels had a gun. I just don't understand how this tragedy happened.
