Daniel Shaver shooting in Mesa AZ....
https://youtu.be/CsggrMcoT88

The Police officer was acquitted and I don't know why the cop shot him.

What do you guys think?

Just shitty all the way around.

I learned about this listening to the Savage Nation today.

(1) Cop appeared to be power tripping.

(2) I assume the amped up cop got pissed because the suspect crawled over the bag the chick dropped. Call of Duty time.

(3) I'm sure there is some explanation for the deadly perps not just being handcuffed where they lay.

Cop is a super asshole. Some day he will cost his department a lot of money. I think he was looking for an excuse to shoot someone.

I give any LEO the benefit of the doubt every time but this it atrocious.
Why didn't this murderer get thrown in prison?

What did the "perps" do, stiff the babysitter? I know it can be misleading, but the shooting victim seemed about as dangerous as a hungry puppy.

That can't be real??

That guy was an actual sworn LEO?

Not sure what's worse - the fact that he got away with pre-meditated murder or the fact that our hiring standards in the LEO community are that unbelievably misguided.

Yes, pre-meditated. He arrived at the scene intending to kill someone.

Reports of rifle out a 5th floor window (turned out guy was pest control, it was an air gun he was showing his guests).

So I understand rolling heavy, but that cop was a tool.

Thankfully he was already terminated, likely needs a new line of work.

He wasn't terminated the right way.

Reports said the dust cover of his AR said 'You're fucked". Take it for what its worth.




I would rather regret the things that I have done than regret the things I have not done.

Not a cop. Don’t know the backstory. Sure seems like the shot up guy was a harmless idiot trying to comply but too intoxicated or foolish to get it exactly right. Sure seems like the cop should have been able to come up with a different approach that would have maintained officer safety without hosing someone whose only crime appears from the video to be not being very good at Simon says.

He was just looking for a reason to shoot somebody. Fuck that guy.

The ejection port cover was the subject of much debate in this case. Didn't follow it so I have no idea what the reasoning was behind it. the object out the window was reportedly an Airsoft gun.

From what I understand from a podcast I listen to that video was not allowed in court for some reason and the cop that shot the suspect is the son of long time cop in Mesa who also head IA.

Like I said, I may not be 100% accurate

Very sad. It didn't have to turn out that way.

That turned my stomach. Hard to believe that assassin is walking the streets a free man.

Whomoever would have walked into that hallway at the wrong time, doesn't matter if it was even the right guy-he was gonna die.

Why weren't they cuffed on the ground?

Why the convoluted instructions from behind an itchy trigger finger? Who wouldn't fuck it up out of sheer petrifying fear?

Stinks to high heaven.

That officer is a fucking idiot that’s for sure. I don’t understand why the dead guy did not do EXACTLY what the officer said though. That officer had me scared for my life just sitting in my recliner watching the video, I would not have fucking blinked unless he told me to do so for fear of getting shot. Why did the guy reach to his back? You would think the guy would have realized how bad things could get if he did not follow orders precisely. I hope to God that officer is no longer on the force. I’ve been in plenty of ass pucker situation and always maintained my cool but that officer fucking lost it.

You might mis-step too when you're staring down the barrel of a weapon being shaken around by some mouth-breathing psychotic shit-swizzler.

I just saw a picture of the so-called cop. Damn he looks frail. Wouldn't do well in a bar fight. Maybe an LEO job isn't a good choice.
