Testimony is evidence.  An officer's testimony carries more weight in court than john doe.  Case closed.  There is no arguing this.  

 

And exactly, you shoot someone and then its up to the DA to PROVE you did something wrong.  Same with cops.  They shoot someone and its up to a DA to PROVE they did something wrong.  It's simple.

 

Show me the law that states "authorities" must "prove their [sic] was justification for lethal force."

 

The law requires the Division of Criminal Justice to investigate whenever a law enforcement officer, while performing his or her duties, uses deadly physical force that causes someone's death. It must also determine whether the officer's use of deadly physical force was appropriate under standards established by statute and submit a report of its findings and conclusions to the chief state's attorney. The division is a state executive branch agency headed by the chief state's attorney, and is in charge of the investigation and prosecution of all criminal matters in the Superior Court.
