Do not look at the picture of his mom. That is all.

Did they come to the conclusion that non-compliance and then running away was the smartest course of action?

White or black, if you don’t want to get shot by the cops don’t do really stupid sh*t. It’s really quite simple.

No. I’ll bet he was as surprised as the officer that it wasn’t a taser.

Didn’t he have an arrest warrant for gun possession? I guess his “mentor” wasn’t very good.

he, Wright and other young black men often talked about how to handle interactions with cops.
Doesn’t everyone after the first stop, and realizing they have firearms and you shouldn’t cause confusion?
When I get pulled over, I always put my hands on the steering wheel, and wait for the officer, and move slowly and calmly - even in the situation where I’ve had a dispute with a police officer over what happened (he was clearly having a bad day).

If he was that afraid he should have just complied and let the lawyers sort it out.

Correct.

Stopped him for an air freshener? Didn’t deserve death but he resisted.

The first dumb thing is not responding to an outstanding warrant for your arrest. I haven’t heard what the warrant was for.

They still haven’t said exactly what the outstanding warrant was for. However, he was arrested for aggravated robbery (that’s armed robbery, a felony) in February of this year. He was AMAZINGLY released ROR (without bail being posted). It doesn’t take a great deal of imagination to see how he misses his court date resulting in a new arrest warrant being issued.
Interestingly, he was being compliant right up until the female officer told the contact officer that he (Wright) had outstanding warrants. I believe she said ‘warrantS,’ so it’s possible he had multiple warrants for his arrest. Whatever the case, it was at that very moment that Wright tried to flee.

Only his mother says it was an air freshener, as supposedly related by him.

Well, it was a handgun, and he was almost 21. I wonder if his mentor has seen the photos of the wads of cash.
