If someone surrenders then the Officer should not fire. Did Brooks do that? 

Let me check.  No. he did not.

But I asked the question find out if we agree that even if someone threatens a cop, and the cop has a right to apply lethal force, that right is still continually dependent upon circumstances, and can change momentarily.

The question in the Brooks case is whether Rolfe still had that right, once Brooks was fleeing.
