I know this won’t be popular but I think the problem for a lot of people is going to be the fact that he shot him in the head.
NI would think that under most use of force policies this was an authorized use of deadly force. That being said the courts are going to hold him to the reasonable standard.
I don’t know that they will find it reasonable for him to shoot the perp in the head. I assume the talking point will be that he could have shot him in the shoulder or other area of the body. It is hard to guess what will happen.
How long should a cop wrestle with someone trying to escape? Till one of them is dead? And most people would prefer the cop?
I don’t what happened to Common Sense.
I would never take on that job, but I would have let Congo man run, and impound the vehicle.
