This one was a tough one.... Policemen was in error in my opinion... manslaughter w/ smallest punishment... no jail time... and if it requires jail-time i would reduce the charge to te next highest w/o jailtime
why did I feel like the cop was in the wrong? They prolonged the process way longer than needed...the victim was obviously scared out of his mind, you needed to cuff him/put him in custody ASAP... in my opinion the cop put himself and the victim in more danger the method he used to put him under arrest .
I assume the police were afraid of other people behind the victim down the hall... and if they were afraid of that... leave the guy there flat on the ground, until you think you can move there.... don't make him crawl to you to where if he gives the slightest flinch you'll shoot him.
I sincerely think it was lack of good judgement... though I don't find the policemen a murderer by any means
As a side note.... if this guy was black... cop for sure would be in trouble.... just my opinion.
