October 28, 20169 yr Again , your opinion is not policy. Chicago suspended 3 officers for firing at a fleeing suspect in a car who had just hit their car. 12 peoples opinion is what is going to decide this case is it not.
October 28, 20169 yr 12 peoples opinion is what is going to decide this case is it not. Not necessarily.
October 28, 20169 yr 12 peoples opinion is what is going to decide this case is it not. I am going to be curious to see how the attorney tries to show that the officer felt he feared for his life. I don't think a suspect trying to flee in a car would meet most people's definition. Does that defense require Tensing to testify?
October 28, 20169 yr I agree that his criminal history should not be admissible. I'm not sure why medical history would even be an option to be brought up? You can make all of that stuff inadmissible. Doesn't mean you can make Tensing or other officers knowledge of it or prior dealing with him inadmissible. All it means is they'd have written statements or testimony vs documented incidents with police and medical records. I don't know if that existed but I'm saying it's still easy to get around it.
October 28, 20169 yr Like being born black? Such an overplayed line. I feel you actually begin to believe it after a while.
October 28, 20169 yr Pretty scary to know people on here feel like disobeying an officer is justification for a death sentence, isn't it? Scary that people say this was an execution. I'm guessing the body camera was so he could enjoy it again and again?
October 28, 20169 yr Author In a weapon? Yes, a weapon. Same type of weapon used by the girl in Boone county that didn't end well.
October 29, 20169 yr Scary that people say this was an execution. I'm guessing the body camera was so he could enjoy it again and again? What was it then? I had a lady pass me going much faster in the football parking lot tonight.
October 29, 20169 yr What was it then? I had a lady pass me going much faster in the football parking lot tonight. A costly mistake due to an overreaction.
October 29, 20169 yr A costly mistake due to an overreaction. I don't even know if the negligent homicide arguement exist. Not that Tensing would accept it.
October 29, 20169 yr Yes, a weapon. Same type of weapon used by the girl in Boone county that didn't end well. Was the car going to go Jetsons on him and scoot sideways?
October 29, 20169 yr Author Was the car going to go Jetsons on him and scoot sideways? I do believe the cop was leaning in his car, trying to stop the thug from from starting the car and putting it into gear. Maybe you should watch the video since it has been so long ago?
October 29, 20169 yr I do believe the cop was leaning in his car, trying to stop the thug from from starting the car and putting it into gear. Maybe you should watch the video since it has been so long ago? Watched it again yesterday. If he truly did fear he was going to get hurt or killed I would argue it was an unreasonable fear based on the video.
October 29, 20169 yr Author Watched it again yesterday. If he truly did fear he was going to get hurt or killed I would argue it was an unreasonable fear based on the video. He pulled the trigger for a reason, fear, panic or who knows why. Not sure that there will be 12 folks to convict him based upon the video, Even Though it is in Cincinnati.
