Once he took a hostage and put a weapon to her throat, why didn't the cops hold back and call in a professional to talk the man down? Idk man, you can sit there and make excuses for the cops shooting the hostage in the face, but there were better options. It doesn't make any sense to say that the man was probably going to kill her so the cops had no choice but to guarantee that she actually did die.


"Hey we're gonna call the hostage negot--aaaaand she's dead."

Alright what's your next "better option". Hit me.

I don't understand your point. Are you trying to say that killing the hostage themselves was the best thing to do? How is keeping their guns trained on him, barring his escape, and waiting for a negotiator, somehow worse than just outright shooting the hostage themselves?

He started cutting her throat

They had exactly right fucking now to make a decision. There was no waiting for a negotiator.

Next.

It's hard to tell because the cam is so shaky. But one thing was pretty clear: the cop with the cam was pretty much the only one with a clear shot. The other cops had nothing but a view of the hostage yet they chose to fire anyways. If all you call see is the hostage I don't know why you'd choose to fire.
