The hoops that the press will jump through to avoid saying the police killed a man or prison guards are accessories to murder is mind boggling.
“Man shot in police altercation during traffic stop sustained critical injuries and dies in the hospital”
Vs.
“Police killed a man during a traffic stop”
Fair.
But when an officer discharges their weapon it’s in the police report, which is publicly available.
If no other weapons are involved and someone is shot then it’s a fact that they shot whoever was hit by a their bullet.
Whether they are guilty of homicide is a decision for the court. Whether they killed someone is a matter of fact.
