Per other accounts 96 shots were fired which seems excessive. Who's right and wrong here? Will the lawsuit be successful:
Body cam footage said the whole story. This guy got pulled over for a minor traffic infraction, elected to ignore direction, created escalation, then drew a weapon and fired at police hitting one. While returning fire, this moron exit the car WITH the gun, and tried to elude and continued to present the weapon. The cops (all of them) continue to fire until the threat was eliminated. Good. I have zero remorse for him, and I think his fake ass mother who obviously did a **** job raising this ferral human is simply looking for a pay day. It's disgusting.
Were you there? It's easy to say what should have happened from the comfort of your chair, but in the heat of the moment, and it's acknowledged by the FBI, that in a firefight there will be about a 70% miss rate, and not all those rounds that actually hit the target will stop the action.
He fired a gun at police and anyone is actually expecting any sympathy for his case? Fok him and the ambulance chasing lawyers and the family who thinks his bad decision is worth money
Only on the off chance they might have hit innocents. If someone fires a gun at me I'm shooting back until they're clearly dead or my gun is out of bullets
It only takes one well placed shot to eliminate a threat, the rest are just insurance in case the first shot didn't.
The only thing there is that police have a nasty habit of not considering their backstop, after all we know that bullets will go somewhere until they hit something. It should be just like a civilian involved shooting. You're responsible for every one of those shots fired and every one of those bullets might have a lawyer attached to it.
