Please produce this footage and the 'forensics and all that' evidence you say exists.


Don't have it. Never seen it. My point when mentioning it wasn't to claim that his quilt and murderous intent would've been obvious from them, but to answer your question of how can anyone say what happened based on (just) the video from the vehicle. I would assume the board who reviewed the officers actions had some other evidence as well when they deemed his actions "unjustified".

And I'd also like to make clear that while from what little I do know I agree with the board's verdict, I don't call for blood or lynch mobs. My guess is the cop made a tragic mistake and overreacted to something he thought he saw. I think everybody misreads people all the time, this time seeing threat that (probably) wasn't there.

And I agree that all eyewitnesses make mistakes. Including the officer in question.
