Daunte Wright death: US '''Taser mix-up''' ex-officer guilty of manslaughter - BBC News
This seems to explain why the jury found how it did. |

if I was an advisor to Police Department, I would suggest that they wear their holster for the Taser on their dominant side and their service pistol (often Glock) on their non-dominant side - where they would have to use a cross-draw. That would be harder to mistake! And some shooters believe that a cross-draw is faster.

No, I agree with retired guy, and I watched every minuter of trial and hearth Minn Law. Lessor charges should have been brought but the State A.G. Ellison wanted some white meat.

It's great to realize you made a mistake. But if someone did not realize in the first place that lessening accountability and consequences for already-illegal behavior would result in mass lawlessness, then that person is the problem, regardless of their new-found revelation they made a mistake. That's like me thinking how much fun it would be to tie a cinderblock to my friend's ankle when we go swimming. Then after he drowns, I realize it might have been a mistake. The problem is that I didn't realize that common sense deduced result prior to tying the brick to his feet.

How did you get my wife's picture? ......If Police controlled robots and drones from a bulletproof car or remote location, that would take the tension down for the Police and they might NOT have to make such quick decisions in tricky situations. It is just a matter of time and technology improvement for this to improve the situation for both the perpetrator and responders.

"The first charge against Potter - first-degree manslaughter - is applied to cases in which the defendant causes someone's death while attempting to commit a lesser crime."
What lesser crime was Potter attempting to commit? Not sure about second degree manslaughter, but this was NOT first degree manslaughter. |

Oh it was a good idea, many have made great political capital out of it, like any politically inspired disaster they now back and fill, make excuses, finesse what they have said, with the media helping to do a little creative history writing, I hope to live long enough to hears some politician , right , left, center, outer space , any ideology admit to stupidity

[QUOTE=DeanFL;2042606].
. Extremely well said, and I totally agree. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a policeman. That never happened. I would hate for a relative be one nowadays. So often put in a no-win situation. Horrible. . . True, Police are put into no-win situations a lot because of the nature of their job. But, they get training and mentoring and, most of all, higher pay to compensate for those no-win situations. |
