I’m certainly not calling this guy innocent.

However, stopping someone for walking in the street ending in a shooting where only the police are armed certainly raises questions. I don’t care if this guy JUST got released from prison as a violent criminal, the Constitution and the law still apply. “He was a bad person” is not a hunting license.

The police are taking their time with the evidence. The locals are rioting. Everyone seems to have lost their collective minds.

I would like to see three third-party (not police and not state employed) forensic examinations of all evidence.

Until then, this police officer was charged with KEEPING THE PEACE. He failed to do so. As a citizen, he is innocent until proven guilty. As an employee of the people, I would think it would take a great deal of exonerating evidence to show he is fit to keep the peace.

He obviously wanted the “thug life”.
That includes getting shot by the cops.

He’s livin’ the dream.. or something.
