Another police shooting video goes viral

2 new questions

1- WHO was in the vehicle with Scott?? Watch the video and it looks like another head moving around in the passenger seat..what did they see/hear?

2- What will happen to the second officer on scene after the shooting? He is black...and was right there when Slager retrieves and drops the taser by the body, also corroborated the initial story in the police reports. Heard about him today and of course, the black pundit said he's a black officer which we need more of, so there should be no charges brought against him if he did cover up the bad shoot.

**itchypickle** · 04-09-15, 07:05 PM

After hearing the audio I guess we are going to get more info to come out. We've all seen episodes of COPS before

Scott tells Slager he just bought the car so he doesn't have insurance....Slager tries to get him to check the glove box - where a passenger is seated- to be sure the previous owner didn't have an insurance card or relevant paperwork in there but Scott doesn't wanna open the glovebox...he then changed his story to he hasn't bought the car yet but planned to do so next week...that puts the cop on alert something is up with the two guys and being shady about the glove box area....poor dude ran to distract attention away from his buddy in the car who was holding the weed and got shot....unreal.

Thats not why he ran, which is irrelevant anyway, he didnt want to go to jail, open and shut case, cop is charged with murder and will do hard time.

**MoneyM1ke** · 04-09-15, 07:39 PM

I will always take the cops side kill or be killed but this dude is the exception if your're not in danger why unload on the dudes back while he's running away? Guy probably runs a 2 hour 40.

Agreed cop will go down. And should.

But...all could have been avoided had the guy just owned up to his warrants that even his family admits he had and was avoiding. A shame he got shot, or even tased for that fact, but just made it worse on himself by fleeing and grabbing a new charge.

Pretty good.

But I have never seen a police officer shoot somebody in the back while they were running on an episode of COPS.

I used to always tell people the reason that never happened is because a television crew is with them. Had this officer known millions would see his power complex I'm willing to bet Scott would still be alive today.

meant the whole 'wait till the cop goes to the car' and then bail and run...one cop vs two suspects...has to choose which one has the goods on them, decoy or holder

Cat and mouse game.

**Kermit** · 04-09-15, 07:58 PM

This cop fukked up and overreacted and will go to jail for his poor judgement call. I must admit, during the traffic stop he was pretty patient and didn't act like a dickhead even when the guy was feeding him his bullshit story about the car.

I highly doubt that cop was planning on chasing down, fighting with, and shooting someone that day.

If this was a true "Power Complex" he would have just shot the guy instead of trying to tase him first. He got caught up in the moment, let his anger get the best of him and did something stupid that he will now pay the price for.

Exactly. Just heat of the moment bad bad choice. He chased, wrestled with, tased, and then pulled and fired. Probably adrenaline and frustrated...but thats the fine line walked in that line of work.

So the order of progression makes it not a power complex? Nodody said he's an outright crazy pyschopath cop who shoots on impulse every single chance he gets, but explain shooting at a slow running unarmed man less than 12 yards away from you 8 Times, pause after the 7th shot and properly steady the 8th and final drop shot. That's a power complex. Lied also about the taser incident, he was gonna go free until the video popped up. Had numerous other citings also previously where it looked like he lied.

**rkelly110** · 04-09-15, 09:12 PM

Even if there was no video, forensics would show him shot in the back. Back shooting a suspect is a no no, especially
an unarmed suspect. He will probably only get manslaughter.

he would walk tho with no charges

even if the poor guy was running away, since the officer said he took his taser he could be considered a "threat to the public" so he would have been "justified"(if you believe that nonsense) and majority cops out there would stand behind him. Judge wouldn't even care about the witness testimony, worthless. Somewhere along the way cops got superhero status in the legal system.

Dash-cam proves to be inconclusive as well. Hope some of you here never serve on a jury.

**Jayvegas420** · 04-09-15, 11:45 PM

Jury duty sucks.
When asked by an attorney if I thought I could fairly hear the case against the defendant?
I answered "Of course I can, just one question, is the defendant Mexican or costarican?"

I was dismissed

Last time I was selected for Jury Duty, I filled out the form and said that I could tell if someone is guilty just by looking at them.

I got picked anyways. It actually wasn't too bad though and my knowledge in automotive repair cost convinced the rest of the Jury to accept that the man on trial did over 5K in damage to another guy's vehicles. They ALL thought that the prosecution was stretching the money up about damage done to get the vandalism total over 5K.

**recon1** · 04-10-15, 12:27 AM

I've watched the dash-cam and the orginal footage again, this doesn't even look real. Several things just not right

**Bluehorseshoe** · 04-10-15, 08:26 AM

Why does the cop remind me of Jay Cutler?

this would be a very easy case and you could put a murdering pig behind bars. Any real American should love this opportunity.

Sheriff Orders Immediate Internal Investigation Into Arrest Seen on “Disturbing” Video – NBC Los Angeles

**cecil127** · 04-10-15, 08:55 AM

i think the horse wanted to get a coupla shots too! and rightfully so....phukk that horse/identity thief. got what was coming too him. why don't they show the horse kicking the cop? would it not be such a "unjustified" beating? I bet it would! media cut and pasting their vid to make it more headline worthy...

**rkelly110** · 04-10-15, 09:27 AM

Would the cops that like to gang beat up suspects, have that done to them? I would say not. If not, why do they do it?

**Jayvegas420** · 04-10-15, 10:04 AM

Some of the comparisons in this thread are ridiculous.
Its is not unreasonable to believe that all police should be held to a higher standard.

That's why no one on Canada is allowed to carry a hand gun except a cop.

Might also be why we have 10-15 hand gun murders per year.

**recon1** · 04-10-15, 01:07 PM

Jay, I've seen you critique the grammar of not only myself, but another poster in last 2 days and then you post this hellacious post? Clean it up Einstein.

I don't have any problems seeing anybody who is guilty of a crime doing the time. My problem is with the lynch-mob mentality. "A real American" would want to see due process. Your mentality would fall for anything that plays into your hate, sorta like a third world mentality. Fore-fathers turning in grave with this type mentality.

**MoMoneyMoVaughn** · 04-10-15, 01:15 PM

Whores shit

**pavyracer** · 04-10-15, 03:09 PM

yes and that would involve actually serving on the jury which was the whole point. I'd be eager to serve on this jury.

lol the forefathers are not turning in their grave because of "my hate" for the police state. You have it backwards buddy. The forefathers wouldn't be waiting for due process for the shit that has been going on since the inception of the FED.

and you think this is lynch-mob mentality? that is odd because I think it is the exact opposite. Here you have clear as day murder yet people are far more calm than the other cases. Plus, you can't forget if there was no video of this, this cop would have the support of the governor, police and every other idiot out there that goes for the "these guys have a tough job" angle as if that justifies something.

what would have been great is if the recorder of this murder didn't release the video until the coverup began. That way could get everyone to pick their side, all the dumb sheep who keep thinking cops are trustworthy will fall for the trap they always do; "fear for my life" "tough job" etc...

**The Kraken** · 04-10-15, 10:34 PM

Who gives a fukk what the forefathers would think

If they were here today, we'd be facing the same issue

They'd be bought by billion dollar corporations just like the rest of em

So let them roll in their graves or let them RIP, either way it doesn't change today's reality

A real American?

Get over yourself Recon

actually I'm the one who said real American and he was responding to me as if it were a joke also. That right there is part of the problem with you people. Just keeping laying down and taking it, no lube; what a life.

**itchypickle** · 04-11-15, 08:14 AM

Scott's family revealed the guy was, get this, $18,000 behind in child support payments

Granted he shouldn't have been shot in the back by a white cop but I wouldn't have been too upset had some other man beat his ass really good....fukk him.
