So why did he handcuff the guy that was shot if he wasn’t shooting at him ?
Exactly. Sure looks like the cop is telling a tall tale. We must be missing part of the video.
To maximize the potential for a bleed out. It's just SOP. Reduces lawsuits, a cost-saving measure to protect taxpayer funds. Good optics, too - if you shoot a guy and then cuff him, he looks like he should have been shot. Also, defense experts have proven that shot people are still lethal within a twenty foot radius, and that they can kill you faster than you can draw your weapon in self defense. Fact. Better safe than sorry, anyway. And why do you want to know? Show me some ID, and keep your hands away from that toy truck.
Yep, you disproved that lie in 10 words.
The cop needs to be fired. The mayor needs to read zrivera the root act for lying And call for his immediate replacement.
These assholes never learn.
