I guess they had "no choice" but arrest him for sleeping in his car after drinking.
They never let them call someone to get them....right? Especially when the suspect is as clam and non-disrespectful as this guy. Right?
I guess if he had not resisted they wouldn't have had to try and tase him and them lost their taser and then he wouldn't have turned with it and then they wouldn't have used their legal right to escalate to killing a suspect.
I mean not like it's happened before: https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/ny-man-steals-nypd-taser-zaps-three-officers-20190423-gceinbprerhkpfy6g2lk2avml4-story.html
I guess I still can't justify in my mind killing him. Glad others can.
Jesus. F’n jackasses all the way around.
Gotta say I commented earlier just going off of what others said happened but this wasn’t what I expected to see. Cop did a shitty job and dude shouldn’t have fought.
I’m mean I’m pretty sure they can see someone’s record with all the technology. Was he a repeat offender that they needed to come down hard on? Or a clean record, no harm no foul said he could walk home from there? I’ve heard stories of cops driving DUI suspects home.
If I passed out behind the wheel and woke up to cops I would expect a DUI. I remember hearing something back in the day that as long as the keys were not in the car you couldn’t get a DUI if you were parked so I did have a few nights where my keys were sitting on the top of my tire and I was asleep inside.
With someone as calm as that I thought you start with the reading of the rights and tell them you are placing them under arrest. Not immediately start grabbing
