“This cop is going down … no way out of this one.”

The cop deserves to be in prison for the rest of his life.

And the system will want to make an example out of him.

He is toast.

I disagree. If convicted of capital murder, I would think he deserves to be put to death.

I don't like the concept of "the system making an example out of" anyone. It's called intimidation, and intimidation is not the way to run a government of free men. Even Goebbels understood this - "sitting on bayonets is uncomfortable".

However, in this case... perhaps I might rethink my position.

Maybe, maybe not.

Long sentences were handed out in the Danziger Bridge incident

Much shorter sentences were handed out in the Kathryn Johnson incident

And the SWAT cops who threw a grenade into a toddler's playpen injuring him severely got off entirely and the county didn't even pay the kid's medical bills.
