Cops murder another one:

Teen struck by Ohio campus officer's stun gun dies - Yahoo! News

Quote:
Corcoran says officers ordered the teen to back off, but he refused. He was then hit once by an officer's stun gun.
Afterward, the teen appeared incoherent. He went into cardiac arrest after paramedics arrived and was pronounced dead at University Hospital.
Taze em all and let god sort them out.

I'm sure the officer will get the harsh punishment of a $1000 fine and administrative leave with pay

Somehow I think that an officer twice shooting someone in the face while handcuffed would be able to get away with the "my hand accidentally reached for my pistol and the gun shot itself off twice by itself" excuse

That wouldn't be murder. Perhaps you should look up the definition of words before you use them.

It's so nice how everyone automatically blames the cop without knowing the full truth of what happened.

I wonder if the teen was on drugs or something... stun guns "usually" don't kill normal healthy people... at the same time, I got a bogus traffic ticket and I am finding it hard to defend cops these days...
