Gun-mounted flashlight blamed in fatal Plano police shooting

I am kind of surprised that everyone is just taking the killer's word on this. Sometimes suspects are unarmed and are shot by officers with itchy trigger fingers, nervous, or think they see the target reaching for something. Look at the biker in Montana who was paralyzed on video by a police officer pointing his gun at him or look at Oscar Grant. If there isn't video of the event, than the officer and any of his partners on the scene are now open to give whatever accounting of the event they wish to give.

I am not saying that the story is a complete fabrication but I am also saying that it is a possibility especially with the tremendous consequences possible should he be charged with a crime. I think he should be charged with a crime, myself.

We don't have just the officer's word. A grand jury met, heard the evidence in the case, and made a decision. I doubt anyone accepts what the officer says completely.
