That is standard procedure...but it appears to me as though the ‘accidental shooting’ idea came about later because it is the only plausible explanation for what the cop did. The therapist was handcuffed and taken into custody because the cop intended to shoot him, IMHO.

However, still need to wait for the complete investigation.

So why do LEO's even carry tasers anymore?

Apparently, draw weapon and aim for center mass is the 1st, last, and only option when dealing with perpetrators these days.
