In college the course was called Discussion and Debate. One can spend a lifetime hammering out how many angels can dance on the head of a pin--and never get to a conclusion. My own feeling is that when it comes to truth, it's best to keep it simple:

An unarmed--in this case handcuffed--civilian was killed (murdered, according to the legal charges) in the street by a police officer with the support of three other police officers.

Ms Owen's remarks have nothing to do with this. Let it play out in court.
