He does have a well documented history of at least one drug offense that was serious enough to get him Discharged from the military.

But IF the blurry object in the video was the taser that the wanted, fleeing felon had attempted to wrestle from the Officer (and possible even had used the taser on the Officer) then it is clearly reasonable to assume that the Officer moved the weapon closer to the felon's corpse to keep a watchful eye on it so as to avoid any other thugs in the area from retrieving the weapon.

That isn't "planting evidence" its Public Safety.

At any rate we just don't know the facts yet, but I am confident that once we know more about this event it will become clear that the Officer should PERHAPS have been placed on paid leave pending the investigation IF he accidentally misreported some details and NOT charged with Murder just to appease the Justice Dept and the rabid masses who are still frothing about Officer Wilson being Innocent.

He should also probably be granted psychological therapy to help with any possible Post Traumatic Stress issues that could already be causing him mental anguish.
I have a feeling you are Mrs. Slager posing as WilliamTheFlatulent.

Yep, you confirmed it. You're not actually interested in this case. You're posting controversial opinions to try and start arguments. I believe that's called being a troll if I'm not mistaken.

I'm truly way past believing these Killer Cop examples when being supported by pre-conceived ideological learned biases..just because they can and because it's been that way for a VERY LONG TIME!! Prejudice is alive and well in America..Fortunately 75-80% of America DO NOT feel that..then again Unfortunately those 20-25 have the $$$ and large mouths to perpetuate their ideology ($$ electing narrow minded preps who refuse to recognize 21st Century values) from like 60+ years ago....They want to go back to the OLD DAYZ ,SMH

Why was he buying a Mercedes if behind on child support?

Don't know. I would suspect to get around. It's a very old Mercedes (1990 something) and likely pretty cheap. However, I understand his brother actually cautioned him against buying it.

Well, flatulent is a good word since it's a lot of hot air / gas you're spouting.

You are either a relative, a racist or a bad cop. I predict even after a trial if he is found guilty, you'll be crying foul because you have to stick to your narrative.

I'm not sure if child support is a felony warrant there... warrant in and of itself even if a felony..does not fall into supremes decision about use of deadly force ... and fleeing felons
I would be happy if there were justifiable circumstances so I don't have to read every sicko along with regular citizens how we murder people routinely... but.. in this case.. given all available evidence and benefit of doubt nothing has come forth supporting such use of force.
Its time and trial... nothing will bring back Scott... city should prepare for millions in civil liability

My world view is a very, very strong conservative (bet you thought different, didn't you?) and one which looks at actual facts. Your world view is one of suppositions with no actual factual basis. Yes, my assessment stands - you're acting like a troll.
