    I have seen enough videos of both sides acting like pure cancer to know that both side lie all the time. And just like cancerous cops get covered by their peers do cancerous criminals get covered by their peers. It is a fucked up world. Witness statements from any of those involved are next to worthless, so finding out what really happened if not easy. But it should always be top priority.

    Just looked at the video, does it contradict it? By how much? Criminals fleeing, disregard his live, he opens fire instead of jumping out of the way (which I assume is his right since that is assault with a deadly weapon?). Surely whatever crime it was, it was not worth someone’s live. Regarding the bodycam: if he turned it off, it was before shit went down. There was no time do to anything once he arrived, well, except draw his gun and kill 2, as per his training :(
