4 Billboards In Kansas Call For Charges Against Cop Who Shot Unarmed 'Swatting' Victim
Yahoo Noose ^ | March 18, 2018 | Dominique Mosbergen, Puff Ho

Four billboards have appeared in Wichita, Kansas; all of them bearing the same somber message: “Andy Finch is dead. If you believe in justice, it’s time to file charges.”

In December, a Wichita police officer fatally shot Andy Finch after a fake emergency call directed law enforcement to the 28-year-old victim’s home. A man in California has since been charged with involuntary manslaughter for the so-called “swatting” hoax call, but the victim’s family and community activists have repeatedly called for the officer who killed Finch — who was unarmed at the time of the shooting — to come under greater scrutiny. The officer has not been charged with a crime.

How about charges against the fool that “swatted” him to begin with?

“SWAT team” is just a euphemism for “government death squad”.

Has he been charged with “incitement to murder,” or similar or merely some internet-type crime?

Since the victim was unarmed and in his private residence, I advocate at LEAST second degree murder charges for the cop.

Minimum.

And conspiracy to commit murder on the part of all LEO involved.

There’s a new way to kill someone you don’t like. Just call 911.

I am amazed at the number of stupid people in FR.
As I recall the original call was concerning a hostage situation, which always involve innocent victims.

Absolutely someone should be charged, prosecuted and sentenced to a serious jail term for Second Degree Murder.

Just not the cop.

OK, here he the trigger happy fool:

Officer Justin Rapp fired one shot with an AR-15 from 44 yards away and killed Andy. No dogs were available at the time.

So do you want the cops to rush into the school to save your children, do you want them to knock politely on the door and wait outside?

Just waiting for someone to say “one less piece of scum in the world”. Isn’t that the usual excuse when police shoot first and ask questions later?

That has nothing to do with this case.

There is no commonality whatsoever.

Do you want them to just shoot you? Unarmed and unprovoked minding your own business?

The man who was killed did absolutely nothing to warrant being slaughtered.

It has everything to do with this case; they were both called in as hostage situations.
I suppose your OUIJA Board tells you there were no children at the reported "swatting" address?

Seriously?
