I do believe that it is possible for jurors to bring in their own biases into deliberations which can work for or against the officer. The point I was making is that I still do not know a case where an officer has been cleared in an officer involved shooting without it being a grand jury or trial clearing them. I cannot think of a case where their own department clears them.
It is so infurating.....
LE has made the whole thing worse IMO.If after Michael and Freddie they would be responsive to the public.
Lets be honest here - what we are talking in essense, here survilence video. Does LE need 6 months to investigate a 7-11 robbery surveliance video. Of course not!
All this "under investiagtaion ****%^ is just that . We are talking about an event that is usually as a quick as a robbery. Push play, watch 22 seconds, make a desision, release to media, and either arrest cop or dont. Move on.
Do they wait half a year to relase robbery footage?
What on earth is their to investigate when the event is on cameras. Employers who see employees stealing on their surveliance equitment fire them in 3 hours. Are private employers "paying" employees while the look" into "
someone stealing on video?
This stuff is actually "easier" - in most instances no one is digusied! Determing if someone turned around , or didn't, lifted an arm up, or had an arm dangling by their side, had something in their hand, or nothing, lunged toward, or away is really not difficult to ascertain on the first viewing. This truly is not rocket science, imo. It is laughable (not really) and inciting the whole thing.
Yhe event in the car, recently, (girlfriend posted on FB) we had a guy sitting in a car, a cop towering over him outside looking in. Lets say he went for a gun. Sitting down , trying to get a gun out of your pocket, raising ones arm and firing would take longer (just reflex anatamy stuff) would be longer than the cop finger on the trigger 6 inches away from the dude.
All that cop needed to do was see if a gun started to come out of a pocket 9 Which visually to me does not seem like it would be all that quick sitting down in a car)
Wallets and guns DO look different! That cops emotionial state caught on the very same tape , struck me as maybe the dude was in the wrong profession.
If we heard just the audio of him , with no background, we would conclude that whoever we are hearing is not emotionally stable.
All this "investigating" needs to IMO stop.
Those of us here, who know more about the game- wait until the story dies- it is a manipulative lie.
all moo
