The most suspicious part is the lack of statements regarding the perp and a gun.
Did he or did he not have one? Let’s start there.

That does not take months, this happen in March and they have been trying their best to sweep it under rug. It will be much harder with this new video.
Only reason they have not mentioned the ballistic evidence is because they don’t like what it shows
This all seems like a really bad joke honestly. The highway patrol reviews their incidents now and they used to review themselves? Even if they had body cameras that were on “all the time”, who would be reviewing the footage? What makes the HP any more trustworthy than the department itself? Why isn’t there an independent review board? Because someone might actually be held accountable?

I’ve said the same about many, many, many…“investigations”…and I’m still waiting.

Also no mention of him trying to grab a gun from cop

He was shot twice in the back of the head.
How could he be grabbing a gun face down with 5 cops on his back.
The lack of statements defending the cops is disturbing to me, but given that this happened on Prostitute Prospect Ave, I’m not surprised that a man wanted for a violent gun crime got himself injured/killed by the cops.

First you can still try unless your arms are pinned. Second since there was no mention of him doing it it makes this very suspicious like Six had said. We are not in a disagreement, take a breath.

Can’t speak to that, but doesn’t look good

You would think. At the 1:58 mark you get a statement from the police that would indicate he had a gun and shot it.
I find it interesting that the libs are suddenly interested in police shootings again.
They show anything from no interest to approval of the murder of the unarmed Babbitt by Capital police.

Absolutely. The video is largely a jumbled mess.
If there is a justification, the person shot did indeed shoot the police officer first. I saw no claim that he did this with a pistol taken from the cop. There should be an extra pistol there that was fired and a fired bullet that matches that gun.
Why is this something to debate? Just find the facts.
