Oh come on BW. This entire story reeks of bullshit.
Even if it went down like it is being told it is a screw up of monumental proportions.
What do you think would happen to you had you done this? You would be under the jail and you know it.
I'm an honorably retired third generation peace officer. I've been in three shootings over a 28 year span. Last ten years in service I headed up the shooting investigation team that investigated EVERY discharge of an officer's weapon on or off duty. So, yeah, I've been there. You?
Unless you were there how does anyone outside the participants know what happened? The investigation will run its course and if foul play or improper procedures were involved, then I.A.D. will go from there to the Chief's desk or the D.A. office.
