Cop mistakes his own gun for taser and shoots/kills suspect (Vid in Link)

Bodies are piling up. What say you? Was it an accident?

SEE IT: Video shows Tulsa man’s last moments alive after accidental police shooting (WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT)

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nati...icle-1.2181787

It was a mistake.

That’s the blasé explanation Oklahoma officials gave after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man by a white deputy who accidentally pulled his gun when he meant to use his Taser.

The botched encounter was captured on a disturbing video released by police on Friday — nine days after the fatal Tulsa shooting.

“He shot me! He shot me, man. Oh, my god. I’m losing my breath,” Eric Harris says as he struggles on the ground following the April 2 shooting, which flew under the radar until video emerged a week later.

“F--- your breath,” a callous officer can be heard saying. “Shut the f--- up!”

Reserve Deputy Robert Bates, 73, (below) shouted “Taser! Taser!” before pulling the trigger on his gun, firing a round into Harris.

“I shot him!” the former policeman says, dropping his gun. “I’m sorry.”

Bates was assisting other deputies who were trying to take Harris into custody after the felon fled from police during a sting operation, the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office’s said.

“You shouldn’t have f-----g ran!” another deputy screams, as Harris is held down by his neck and head.

Harris, who was in his 40s, was pronounced dead about an hour after the shooting, authorities said.

He had bolted from officers who were trying to arrest him for selling a 9 mm. semiautomatic pistol and ammunition to undercover cops.

Harris, who was unarmed, had reportedly done time for assault and battery on an officer.

He was “absolutely a threat when going down,” Tulsa Police Sgt. Jim Clark said at a news conference.

Sheriff’s Capt. Billy McKelvey claims the arresting officers were not aware Harris had been shot, despite the gunshot noise and Bates’ admission. They called paramedics and firefighters, and rendered aid when they realized, McKelvey said.

“He made an inadvertent mistake,” McKelvey said.

Sgt. Dave Walker told the Tulsa World that police “would not investigate the death unless the sheriff’s office asked them to, and they have not asked us to.”

Honestly.
1. The bureau of labor statistics says the median salary for police and sherrif's patrol officers is $59,560

2. Those in positions of power and have the authority to use lethal force must understand how absolutely precious life is. Taking the life of another cannot be undone. It should not be done flippantly, callously, or out of convenience.

You could just tell your children to avoid being criminals and on the rare occasions they encounter a police officer be respectful. If the officer is acting out of line, don't try to change his bad behavior in that moment. Go through the proper channels to bring the officer to justice.

An accident is when you spill your drink. This was criminal negligence that resulted in a murder.

I don't think it can be murder if you can't prove malice.

This is nothing like the SC shooting.

some of you are just playing a disingenous semantics game. You have learned well from Donger.

IMO, this is a case of manslaughter. I agree that it doesnt appear as if there was wilful malice. That being said an 'accident' is not a get out of jail free card.

I haven't seen anyone argue that the shooter shouldn't spend some time in jail.

I think that's tolerable, when you have a suspect who is trying to flee.

No problem with that.

I do have a problem with his character and compassion as a human, when he tells someone "**** your breath" in their dying moments.

ahh but its implied. By stating that its not murder but not offering up an alternative charge it implies that no crime was committed.

By stating that its an 'accident,' it implies that the individual should not face criminal reprecussions.

I'm just trying to cut through all the bullshit.
