Even IF the officer was justified in shooting the guy (which would only be if there was reasonable suspicion to believe that somebody else was in danger of serious bodily injury if he was allowed to escape), there is no way that dumbass can get away with this deal. He should have been a salesman. PRIME example of someone who should have been successful at some other vocation.

Vid shows popo shooter moving the Taser gun to the dead man's feet to make it look good. Dumb ass didn't know he was on candid camera. Hope he fries.

I think this will be a much different reaction than the one seen in MO. The black community in the Charleston area have long had a good relationship with a black police chief, Ruben Greenberg. And while this was the North Charleston dept. I believe those years of good relations will pay off. I worked with Chief Greenberg when he was a Major with the Savannah P.D. and he was tremendous at working with the community at large. Not sure if he is still the CPD chief but he still has a big presence in that area. John

Yea, there won't be any rioting in SC, they keep the [bleep] in check there. I hope this [bleep] fries, and they do it quickly. Glad it was caught on tape, if not it would have been swept under the rug like thousands of other police crimes.

There's another 2.5 - 3 million dollar hickey the city will pay out to the dead guy's family.
Like Tom T hall sang in "Trip to Hyden" : "they worth more money now than when they's a livin'".

What if they guy he shot was a known murderer? What if a bullfrog had wings? What if the sun rose in the West? WTF difference would that make? The cop shot an unarmed man, who was fleeing, in the back multiple times and then planted a Taser or other object next to the victim to make it look legitimate. If the guy had been a known murderer or anything else doesn't change the fact that the shooting was unjustified murder.

The official press release given out BEFORE they knew about the video was hilarious. I read it last night somewhere else...I can't remember where and I don't have time to look it up now. But anyway, it talked about the officer fearing for his safety after the suspect took his Taser. It said that the suspect had initially run away but then turned to fight. I'm sure someone here will find it and post it presently.

He made only one mistake , he let someone film it

it won't just be local cops
video like this is going to convince alot of people that this sort of thing is happening all over America - and the cops that legitimately shoot a suspect , in light of the last year, are going to be looked at with more scrutiny from the public.
have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings
