BTW....as an ex cop you know a taser is a one shot weapon...once the taser darts are fired the cartridge has to be replaced and can only be used in “drive stun” mode....

So are you claiming the Mr Scott somehow had a spare cartidge on him for some reason?

The PD and the SO here both carry Tasers with a cartridge in the fire position and a spare in the grip.

Some tasers have multiple cartridges loaded, and regardless can still deliver a jolt on contact when expended. Tasers came into vogue after my time but honestly, look at the totality of the prolonged chase, fight, etc., and the disinfo so far(I.e., turns out there was no warrant, so why DID he run? Car stolen) and this cop deserves a defense, even if it turns out he is guilty of something.

I strongly recommend staying on all analysis at The Conservative Treehouse, they helped exonerate Zimmerman and Wilson, and you will NOT find anywhere remotely near the facts they uncover in the media.

As long as the darts are still in the subject making contact with the skin and the wires are intact, an additional charge can be delivered.

Spare is in the butt end of the handle.
