Re: Can a cop shoot you just for running? [Re: Shroomism]

One of my friends from high school was shot in the back by an off duty cop in our hometown. He was unnarmed and non-violent. The man killed him and the police protected him for 2 years, after two years, all they could do is press civil charges for wrongful death, and get some money.

That's really fucked up. Hopefuly justice will be served without... justice. Can they retry him if new evidence is provided or is that double jeopardy?

He thinks they can legaly shoot someone just for runing. I have watched cops many times, and they always say "Stop or I will shoot". I thought this was just a scare tactic.




some states have 'fleeing felon' laws and can in fact shoot you for running, other states do not.

so you want people not only to pay the police to run after them but to do the police's job for them too?

I doubt it. They spent tens of thousands on lawyer's fees over the past 2 years, and only recently won a civil lawsuit for wrongful death and were awarded 1.7 million or some such. That's probably all that will ever come out of it. The cop that shot him is still on the force as far as I know.
