The officer and one other are now on leave and the city prosecutor is looking into charges and the police department now says they have updated their policies to be inline with the hospitals. Time will tell.

The question needs to be asked of the Police Chief why the police policy was different in the first place.

The question is why after Nuremberg established responsibility the police chief isn't also under investigation. Oh, that's right, he is the head of the investigation so he gets to pardon himself!

Don't know? You'd have to take the matter up with the city's prosecutor and council.

Trained to kill first, ask questions later ...

Clark County sheriff’s deputy Jake Shaw was placed on administrative leave Tuesday. The sheriff's office said Shaw will attend a "critical incident debriefing" after Monday’s shooting in New Carlisle, north of Dayton.

“He shot somebody, an unarmed civilian,” Grimm said. “Realistically there's going to be consequences."

"My camera was already on the tripod and I grabbed it and turned and I just hear pop, pop," Grimm told Dayton TV station Fox 45. “I did not hear a single warning. Did not hear the deputy identify himself. I said, 'What the ---- Jake Shaw? You shot me, dude.’"

Grimm said Shaw ran over to him after quickly realizing what happened.

"He said, 'Oh my God, Andy,' then he made the call, 'Shots fired, got a man down.' He definitely told me, he said, 'I thought it was a gun, I thought it was a gun,'" Grimm said.

So now a TV news camera on a tripod is a gun.

"Trained to kill first", looks like he failed his training.

Michael Bennett alleges police brutality in Las Vegas.
"Las Vegas police officers singled me out and pointed their guns at me for doing nothing more than simply being a black man in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Bennett said after obeying an instruction by a police officer to get on the ground, the same officer "placed his gun near my head and and warned me that if I moved he would 'blow my f...ing head off'".

Bennett said he was taken to the back of a police car "until they apparently realised I was not a thug, common criminal or ordinary black man but Michael Bennett a famous professional football player". He was released without charges.

Unfortunately this experience is the normal of black men in America. They can expect it dozens of times in their lives. If this was happening to white people at this rate, police forces would not have guns. Perhaps that is the only solution.

Chicago PD with no guns. Or better yet LAPD with no guns.

LA riots come to mind. What was the names of those poor fellows they beat with bricks and sticks on TV. Or was that sticks and then bricks?

Yep, unfortunately the past behavior of society has molded the behavior of many of the oppressed.
That does not even remotely excuse the reckless behavior of many in law enforcement.

Think these Texas Officers have some explaining to do :-)


ROFLMAO

Heh... Lufkin, TX. Not exactly the part of the State with the sharpest knives in the drawer...

But, seriously...

How did those police behave improperly?

1. They caught that woman with stolen property in her purse. Depending on the value, and if she stole it or just received it, that might have been a misdemeanor (<= 1 year if convicted) if they even charged her with a crime.
2. They arrested her, put her in cuffs, and placed her in the back of a police vehicle. They even fastened her seat belt so she would be safe during transport.
3. Apparently they missed a handcuff key she had hidden somewhere on her person, but that is understandable. After all, you can't search a person in too much detail in public, and not using a male officer to search a female. The detailed search must wait until later, otherwise... sexual assault by the police officer...
4. As the woman was driving off, one of the policemen said (and was recorded on camera saying) "Gol Dang"... A LOT cleaner than a similar phrase (same initials) that *I* would have said.
5. At no time during the chase did any policeman on the video use even potentially deadly force until the woman, after she wrecked the police vehicle, attempted to grab the shotgun secured in the front compartment Then, AFTER ordering her to stop and asking her to move out of the way, he limited his response to shooting out the window of the police vehicle so that he could gain control of the shotgun and regain custody of the woman.
6. After all of this, they still asked her if she wished medical treatment for any injuries. She declined.

That woman is, in my opinion, stupid.

Stolen property in her purse. Could have gotten her a lecture, or maybe charged as a misdemeanor, maybe a felony, depending on its value. If charged, a lawyer might have gotten her off (dropped charges or not guilty verdict), or maybe a plea bargain on a misdemeanor with probation.

Instead, she goes and commits a host of other crimes while being videotaped. Other crimes such as stealing the police vehicle (a felony), reckless driving (going 100 mph during the chase). Destruction of property (the police vehicle she wrecked, not to mention whatever it was she hit). Escape/evading arrest/resisting arrest. Reaching for a LOADED shotgun during a confrontation with a police officer.

Don't blame me, I voted for Johnson(L) in 2016.

Truth is dangerous... especially when it challenges those in power.

I figured that there was no wrongdoing on the part of the police and Sirius had just posted that for the humor value, which saved me having to do such a thorough analysis. :^)

MK, there are some people who can slip off handcuffs. Their bone structure is such that it is possible. Only have to get one hand out. And criminals like rats can squeeze through some mighty small holes.

Also wasn't sure if he shot the window out or used the baton that I saw in his hand. He did use the baton to open it up big.

Too bad the shotgun wasn't a bit lose in the mount. Could have saved the tax payers of Texas a lot of money.
