Michael Slager, officer who fatally shot Walter Scott in South Carolina, pleads guilty in federal case

In a dramatic turn of events, a former South Carolina police officer who spent years fighting charges in a high-profile shooting of an unarmed black man pleaded guilty Tuesday in his federal case.

Michael T. Slager entered his plea in federal court in Charleston, S.C., more than two years after he fatally shot Walter Scott five times as Scott fled on foot after being pulled over for a broken brake light.

its early and this could change, but on the surface this one looks like another good example of a cop who should be in jail

http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/02/us/texas-officer-kills-teen/

 

The family of Texas honor student Jordan Edwards is too distraught to speak about the teen's death -- especially after police admitted Jordan posed no threat to them.

A day earlier, the Balch Springs police chief admitted he "misspoke" when he said the car Jordan was riding in Saturday night was moving "aggressively" toward police -- leading one officer to fire his rifle toward the car.

why these officers shoot in these situations is unfathomable but they have been trained extensively and simply should not make these mistakes. when they do they should go to jail

Speaking for my area, the sad majority of police officers are simply not people I'd trust in making the kinds of decisions incumbent upon modern day law enforcement, training notwithstanding.

can you specify the area you are referring to?

 

we do have some areas where the law enforcement system is broken and we need to address those aggressively

 

my problem is with the broad-brushing. its the same disease that we claim to be fighting against

Texas police officer who killed black teen could spend rest of his life in prison

 

A suburban Dallas police officer was charged with murder after killing 15-year-old Jordan Edwards on April 29.

A Texas police officer turned himself in on Friday after he was charged with murder in the shooting death of a 15-year-old.

Roy Durwood Oliver, a patrol officer in the Dallas suburb of Balch Springs since July 2011, was released on $300,000 bail.

If convicted of the murder charge, he could spend the rest of his life in prison. In a statement released Friday, Jordan’s family said the charge “brings hope that the justice system will bend against the overwhelming weight of our frustration.”

while i think its good hes going to jail, i dont know that a life sentence is appropriate. you would have to show literal malice against teens or that kid or blacks or whatever with forethought to be worthy of a life sentence. thats a super tough job, and deadly mistakes should seriously risk jail time. but life doesnt feel right, unless we find out some of that malice stuff existed
