Further to the story of the New Mexico cops that killed a homeless man (linked in comment #34 of this thread) - the DA has filed charges against the cops - and the cops don't like it.

John B. Geer had hands up when shot by police, four police officers say in documents

More death by cop...

Still more:

The video, which sparked protests, shows police firing at the man then chasing him across a busy intersection and shooting him multiple more times. About a dozen shots were fired, according to the video.

There seems to be no end to these.

That said, this bit:

At one point, Sexton grabbed a musket gun from the closet.

I suppose this sorry incident should be added to the list here.

Before the video became public, the police had a different story. After speaking to North Charleston police spokesman Spencer Pryor, local media reported that "...a man ran on foot from the traffic stop and an officer deployed his department-issued Taser in an attempt to stop him. That did not work, police said, and an altercation ensued as the men struggled over the device. Police allege that during the struggle the man gained control of the Taser and attempted to use it against the officer. The officer then resorted to his service weapon and shot him..."

Lying, murdering scumbag.

It's worse than murder. He had the trust of the people to carry out the law.
