So the swatter will be charged with the victim's death?

The victim wouldn't be dead if it wasn't for the swatter. The SWAT team would not be there if it wasn't for his fraudulent call.

The SWAT team member is under a high pressure situation assuming the situation is as he was briefed prior. The man was told to put his arms up, this man already is a predetermined armed threat via the swatting call, he decided to reach for his waistline "apparently." The SWAT member has been told the suspect is armed and dangerous, does exactly as he is trained, situation is under control, suspect has their hands up, suspect suddenly reaches for their waist, assume it's a weapon and threat to his safety and the safety of the officers there, and controls the situation by laying fire on the target.

Again, this goes entirely as reported, and the man did reach for his waist instead of following instruction as stated.

If all falls in line and is in truth, no, the SWAT member that shot him is not in the wrong at all. The SWAT member was briefed they were going into a hostile situation where the hostage taker was armed, and ready to kill innocents. He has no idea this is all just a 'prank.'
