I tried listening for the shot more than once and couldn’t make it out. “Sounds” like he put the gun against him and pulled the trigger… no room at all between the barrel of the gun and the guy.. he’s probably got powder burns from a contact gun wound..

that looks like murder, he wasnt resisting and he just shot him

Did you miss the part where he's got the cop's tazer and received multiple warnings that if he didn't release it he'd be shot yet he continued to hold it?!

Anything that poses a potentially deadly threat to an officer or civilian can be dealt with using deadly force, even if its the officers own weapons a suspect gains control of.

Think about it: suspect turns and tasers the officer, officer becomes incapacitated, suspect takes possession of officers gun, suspect shoots and kills officer plus anyone else in the vicinity.

Now that you've posted this, go look up the definition of resisting.

My momma never even had to warn me, "grab a cops weapon, feed the daisies." I just somehow already know that.
