Its a chit show. Lots of diversity in the leadership of the prosecution. Struggling to work the audio-visual equipment, and making reference to the stupidest of chit picked out of the videos. Hard to believe this baffoon has these cops' lives in his hands. I pray the cops both land level headed jurys to see through this BS.
They should be charged with derelict of duty. Letin' one negro whop both of them. I would have shot him several times on the ground. But in reality why he wasn't handcuffed as soon as he got out of the car?
NOVIT EMIM DOMINUS QUI SUNT EUIS {Arnauld Amalric} "Kill them all,God will know His." Never trust Horses ,Women and very few Mules.A good rifle will let in lots of AIR AND LIGHT.
But when you look at the video where he was shot, he'd already fired the taser over his shoulder while running away, then continued to run away when shot in the back.
I would have let him go, and gotten a warrant, and picked him up later.
Perhaps the shooting would have been justified when he was getting the best of the two cops when they were fighting him on the ground, and he grabbed the taser.
But that didn't happen. It's a question of timing. At the moment of getting shot, he wasn't much of a threat.
This doesn't excuse what the POS did, or make him a "Good Boy". Those types usually end up getting killed by the sword because they live by the sword...

Some tasers are capable of firing more than once.
One shot, one kill........ It saves a lot of ammo!
You fight with 2 cops, take a taser, take off running and turn to shoot, well then you get what you get. Play stupid games and suffer stupid results. The shooting cop had no idea if the drunk had stolen the other officer's Glock or not. He probably couldn't tell in that split second that it was 100% for sure just the taser. The drunk turned and the cop's instinct was to protect himself and those around him.
Did the taser have another cartridge in it after he fired the first cartridge? You know the answer

It's time for mass resignations of Atlanta cops. Who would even think about working for a department that hangs its people out to dry like that? Good luck recruiting replacements, also! Jerry

What is the effective range while firing over your shoulder when running away?
Like I said, I'm not taking the puke's side. Just observing what may not have resulted in the cops being charged with murder, and ruining their own lives. He just wasn't worth it.

I couldn't disagree more. The perp committed several hostile acts with hostile intent. Had he shot the taser then surrendered and got shot... sure. But he didn't. What are the cops supposed to do, wait until he gets his hands on another weapon before they engage him? Or wait until he starts hurting someone else?
The man was unarmed other than the taser he swiped from the cop. He apparently tried to tase the cop and, while this may piss the cop off, it does not justify shooting the man twice in the back as he fled.
Remember he had been searched and found to be unarmed.

At some point, you have to be smarter than them.
Get fugking real.
