Watching this video makes you not want to comply. They will kill you no matter what you do.
Firing an officer is not justifierable..they need to pay like every body else tried do time.
This was an extrajudicial execution.
I think this is why people don't trust the police
should go to jail, its far worse to misuse your gun when you're a trained police officer, ridiculous.
Damn I went to high school with Paul. Thank god he didn’t die.
Lock this pigs up Not right pigs killing are kids
It would seem if you chose the police profession, if you are that frightened, maybe you chose the wrong profession.
No gun found so. We ended up shooting at a couple of young innocent travellers. Bit ohwell. There was no gun found but they coulda ditched it is there argument in court. Trust that. Backstab u quicker then a crackhead who sees u got a fat sack
No sirens, no license plates ran nor identification requested from drivers. Terrified that this looked more like a drive-by shooting than a trained stop by officers, no exceptions nor excuses.
Sue, sue, sue, SUE, and the bastards are telling calm down. I'm proud of her for screaming loud as hell!!!!
Who would believe them with no video. Crazy ass cops.
I live in Connecticut and they downplayed the shit out of this what ended up happening with this ?!
Coos busted on camera. Officers seen here torturing, choking, and breaking the arm of an innohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-32u73WYWc&t=1scent man.
Watch the coward ass punk bitch shoot and retreat. Against someone with their hands up… What the f***? 1:13
The girl was shot in the face
Unfortunately it's becoming a trend in North America that you're guilty until proven innocent. The law clearly states the opposite. FUCKTARD PIGS should to jail for the rest of their lives & get ass raped every day.
The cops will probably only get in trouble because they missed so many times!
Body cameras are a joke when "police" can turn them off and on at their discretion.
Wow its Connecticut to for gods sake. Stop hiring cowards.

Sad that america has become a totalitarianism police state where people have been completely divided by power hungry fa$#ots and are to scared to stand up against these tyrants (for good reason). Technology and social media have always been a tool for the rich who wished we were all their slaves, which we pretty much are but no one cares and things will only get worse. The best you can hope for is getting right with god and getting rich.
In the freeze frame they showed, it LOOKED like a gun, it was obviously an optical illusion. Bit this sort of thing DOES happen and he did kinda fling the door open and almost jump out. It was an honest mistake that invariably WILL happen from time to time.
You know what I would have done if the. Cops had thier lights on behind me????? I would Fucking pull over!!!! I wouldn’t make them follow me all over town!!!!! But that’s me.. I’m fucked up like that.. and you know where me and the rest of the mear mortals are at 3am???? In Fucking bed sleeping!!! Not in front of a Fucking store!!!!! But again I’m Fucking weird like that.. I’m sick of it always being about race!!!! I wanna hear from the newspaper guy then I’ll decide!!
And not a word on whether or not they were implicated in the alleged crime,
…so, the cops can just start shooting people? insane!
with the privilege of carrying a lethal weapon comes the responsibility of using it only when necessary and of being 100% correct when you do!
These guys should never be allowed to carry a lethal weapon.
They should be fired and investigated
This thug piece of shit will probably get a million dollars.
Sucks he didnt have a gun, he legally could have put them down. Federal statutes below. You can't just open fire on people pigs…
“When a person, being without fault, is in a place where he has a right to be, is violently assaulted, he may, without retreating, repel by force, and if, in the reasonable exercise of his right of self defense, his assailant is killed, he is justified.†Runyan v. State, 57 Ind. 80; Miller v. State, 74 Ind. 1.
“These principles apply as well to an officer attempting to make an arrest, who abuses his authority and transcends the bounds thereof by the use of unnecessary force and violence, as they do to a private individual who unlawfully uses such force and violence.†Jones v. State, 26 Tex. App. I; Beaverts v. State, 4 Tex. App. 1 75; Skidmore v. State, 43 Tex. 93, 903."
I believe cops are desperate to shoot there gun is stupid . but I also believe people like to bully eachother all the time I grew up in Hartford dutch point back in the eighties all the same people shoot eachother chase the ones who get bullied all the time such as myself . and now you want to protest on police and yelling black lives matter give me a break RESPECT EACHOTHER and you don't have to live like the way I live.
DIE FUCKING PIGS!!!!
MURDER!!!!
Hands up a shot at buy a police officer while you following orders attempted murder charge should be filed 2 counts. Didn't have his body Cam turn on or deleted his body cam???
Shot at while your hands up. Hey you follow police instruction. They falsified the police report it contradicts the video say he made rapid hand movements. One of the officers body cam was turned off. And they still tried to justify the shooting saying they found no gun. so it does not concern the state attorney that the officers falsified the police report . officers falsifying police reports should fall under Federal jurisdiction and not State jurisdiction . the same agency that manipulating the evidence should not be investigating their wrongdoing .
Call it for what it is “ they stopped them to kill them†period
Step down step down are you kidding me? Fired with jail time!!
Watch how fast the black cops get fired and go to jail
well it seems pretty clear cut they fucked up
Shame on you POLICE, your gangsters in federal uniforms, shame on you! Seems like your government fails to provide adequate police training.
There is no way in hell they said get out of the car.
Want to avoid being shot to death by the Police? 1. Do not
commit a crime. 2. Do not resist the Police. 3. Do not make sudden moves. 4. Do
not attempt to murder the Police. Do these things and you will not be shot to
death by the Police.
Scared cops let out rounds to quick.
its clear this officer fired when he shouldn't have. But these ignorant bums marching threw the streets like a bunch of unemployed sacks of shit does not help anything at all.
@0:14 looks like the dead guy had his right hand on something aiming it at police while his left hand flies up in front. Wondering if in that split second the police thought. Rewatch from the 0:12–0:15
You know what’s the reality for black people in this country as it relates to dealing with the police this incident will not be the first and unfortunately it will not be the last……..
His gf was shot in the passenger seat!! #blackwomenslivesmatter
