Quote:That isn't a thing, by the way. The officer has to described what they did that put them in that position.

 

No officer gets out of shooting someone by only saying, "I felt my life was in danger." For example, did he sucker-punch you and hit your repeatedly as you were unable to defend yourself from the aforementioned sucker-punch?

That exact thing happened with the situation I commented on. Without the body camera he would have gotten away with lying about "fearing for his life" therefore murdering a guy. Required body cameras would end people's suspicion.

 

The mind  boggling part of this thread is some people's complete lack of empathy for the life of a person. In one thread they will claim all life is precious and in another will say the exact opposite.
