Yes. His job was to serve and protect, not to kill innocent people. I mean that's the exact opposite.

because in an actual mass shooter incident you'd want swat to respond the way they did. the issue was a failure of threat assessment and that's the issue that needs addressing.

based on what little I know of the incident, he's called into a swat situation and believes the likelihood of a real threat so it is an accident. the person to blame is the person who called the fake swat

No he should not be charged for doing his job
The only person responsible for that Manx death is the one who phoned in a fake call to swat the guy

I think it is a bit odd that someone can make a fake call on the phone and the police have free reign to kill the first confused person they find, as if they have no more agency than the guns in their hands do. The police department has to have some sort of culpability in my opinion.

It depends on why he shot. There was obvious reason to think the person was dangerous due to the false call, so them walking in on this massively confused and "dangerous" person could very well have led to a situation where the "suspect" was not following instructions. In that case, there is nothing wrong with having shot him given the parameters the officer was given. If the guy was complying and somehow still got shot, that would be wrong.
