Much ado about nothing. The agent didn't hit anyone. The crime is solely over the issue of not coming forward, and that is a justified expectation.
Very, very wrong! He did not hit anyone, but obviously shot first causing Finicum to go into defense mode. The shots were not justified and he lied to cover them and destroyed evidence by picking up his brass and not admitting he had done so.
He in large part caused Finicum's death.
There is also the possibility that the shots that killed Finicum were fired, in part, in the belief that shots were being fired by people inside the pickup. That could affect the use of force calculus on the part of the person who fired the killing shots. That could have caused the death. The cover up of the shot also may have had the impact of putting that trooper in greater legal jeopardy while appearing to absolve the person who put the chain of events in motion.

No it doesn't. You can hear shots before he exits the vehicle. Those would be the shots that a trooper hiding in the woods would be trying to analyze.
