    Looks targetted and like the person was waiting.

    When you shoot before finishing giving the command -- show me your hands -- it's kinda tough to claim accident

    Particularly if you don't get around to saying "Police!".

    It is like all of these cops in these shootings had the same terrible instructor.

    Accident feels a tad flippant for "fired a gun through a back window of a house in the middle of the night."

    I mean, it's a deadly fuckup. Also, if I'm in someone's back yard past 2 a.m. in Texas, the assumption should be I'm going to get a gun pointed at me. By a homeowner who is perfectly within their right to do so.

    I can't think that this officer followed any sort of protocol there.

    But it looks like the Fort Worth PD is going to do everything in their power to protect and cover up rather than offer any sort of explanation.

    FWPD has a bad record on shootings.
