This. A good decent weapon gone bad.

In this case it sounds like the taser actually worked, I think the dude's death had something to do with being run over by a police cruiser and left there to die/rot.

I don't think the intended use is to shoot someone riding a bicycle... especially while in a moving vehicle yourself. No texting or tasering while driving.

lol true, I just meant that the cause of death was more the cruiser rather than the taser (probably). Tasering while driving is incredibly idiotic though. The cop was probably too fat to get off and chase the guy on foot.

lol, yeah, runner a person over with a police cruiser will typically leave more than a couple bruises.

BTW, did anyone just see Always Sunny in Philadelphia a couple weeks ago when they were going to the grand canyon? They threw a beer bottle at a bicyclist as a "shot across the bow" and instead nailed the guy in the back of the head. He then fell in front of the car their car.

This cop should go to court for manslaughter.

Try murder, TBH.

Me too. How much do you want to bet that after a lengthy internal investigation they'll slap him on the wrist or say what he did was consistent with department procedures.

Remember Taser's were supposed to be an alternative to lethal force so you got ask your self if chasing down a guy on a bike while in a car requires lethal force.

and how many in shape cops on foot can catch someone riding a bicycle?

of course, i think the cop was an idiot for the whole thing. he should have floored it and smacked him to the curb with the door.

This is really starting to annoy me - the past tense of 'drag' is not 'drug', it's 'dragged'. Ever hear someone say "Look what the cat drug in?" No, because that doesn't make sense.

Back on topic, yet another dipshit cop story. But there's only a few bad apples, right? :roll:

If a cop can get off from shooting a guy in the back 6 times with proof of them trying to cover it up, I am sure he'll get off as well.

Not exclusively, nor are they a replacement.

I suspect this officer will be harshly dealt with, up to and including enduring laughter.

Pretty much this, sadly.

That is good police work

Don't believe everything you read. I found like 10 grammar/typos in this article alone, some source of information.
