Guy was a truly bad guy through and through(sorry for the pun,....not really). Don’t feel bad that he’s gone, just sorrow the mother lost a son...who was...again...heinous and probably not redeemable.
But, I don’t like that cops don’t render aid or allow aid to those who are injured.
Don’t know enough of the story to guess what kind of aid the cops should have given. Certainly wouldn’t want any of them to risk exposure to his blood, so that rules out CPR or direct contact first aid. And since cops aren’t necessarily tasked with giving first aid - especially to someone trying to kill them - I don’t know what else to say. I’m willing to bet they called for an ambulance; why isn’t that enough? And your contention that they don’t “allow aid” to those who are injured doesn’t have the ring of truth.
Imagine if they had touched him in an effort to give aid, and he’d died anyway. Many - would that include you? - would be charging them with murdering him after shooting him, and the lawsuit would proceed anyway.
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t. But that’s what many citizens seem to want cops to be.
Kind of hard ~ sort of thing you'd expect with somebody else's police force.
He was also unarmed.
I think the idea is that California is being totally undermined by the sort of ideas that guide police in Latin countries.
