Has there ever been a case where they don’t resist arrest? Im trying to remember.
There have been plenty of cases of innocent people shot by police.
On July 15, 2017, Justine Damond, a 40 year old Australian-American woman witnessed what she thought might be a woman in distress and called police. A squad pulled up to an alley and Justine walked out to it in her bathrobes and knocked on the window. Officer Mohamed Noor, who was in the passenger seat, drew his gun and shot her through the window and across his partner, for no apparent reason. It turns out officer Noor had been given his job by the department to be the first Somali officer so they could virtue signal how inclusive they are, even though during training he demonstrated all kinds of red flags and clear mental incapacity, like refusing to take calls on duty, driving in circles, being anti-social, drawing his gun on people for no reason. All which was brushed aside in the name of diversity, and he was given a special 'fast tracked' training that eliminated minimum standards. He simply pulled out a gun and shot someone for no reason. He was charged with 2nd and 3rd degree murder and 2nd degree manslaughter, the jury convicted him on 3rd degree murder and 2nd degree manslaughter, and the 3rd degree murder statute was later overturned by a judge as misapplied, resulting in his 2019 sentence revising from 12.5 years to 4.75 years in prison, and in Minnesota you only serve 2/3 of a sentence. And as such, Noor was released from prison last week. After shooting and killing a woman just five years ago
meanwhile the cops who showed up to the scene of a guy overdosing on fentanyl and called for immediate EMTs, are going to serve the rest of their life in prison
