I wonder why in a situation like this they don’t shoot the guys knees out. He won’t die but he definitely won’t be able to come out you any longer.

Thank you finally someone see what really happened. This BS narrative for allowing this guy to run around with a knife and not acting. This is what happens when departments rely too much on de-escalation. You ask me those four officers in the beginning should be charged with cowardice. They put not only themselves but civilians near by in grave danger for not acting

All the people who want deescalation need to understand that deescalation takes both sides buy in to be effective

This is why I retired from police force ! I was trained that you Ask / Tell / than do ! The more you allow them to push the threats and not do anything you’re just letting that suspect escalate the situation ! And this is what happens ! Hope this officer gets the representation in court he deserves and beats this unfortunate charge !

Seems clear from the video that the officer had a reasonable belief that the subject of force posed an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer.

while it may seem odd and didnt work in this situation, psychology has shown that in some cases, the male voice is aggressive to those in this kind of mindset, so the softer, female voice can have a calming effect and influence compliance. Its not 100% and this case is one of those times where it didnt work. justified ending. officer shoildnt be charged.

You know who was also charged with manslaughter? A man who intentionally shot and killed NYPD Detective Diller and went to shoot his Sgt when the gun jammed. It’s truly disgusting how judges and juries have politicized the criminal justice system. Using it as a weapon against law enforcement and the people it’s supposed to be defending. Just wanted to make a comparison to emphasize how absolutely ludicrous our judicial system has become.
