The only issue I see, fwiw, from the bodycam video, I think the cop had a good opportunity to shoot/kill the attacker before he got so much closer to the video. But, this ended ok too I suppose.
The only problem with doing that is it would have been a sort of preemptive strike on a man with the obvious intent and ability but was just verbally threatening. No overt act like pointing the gun toward the woman or officer. For those folks saying he should have tried non lethal first, Uhh, he escalated it by having a gun. That is automatically a lethal force situation. Like has been stated, It is a very grainy video and I, Thank God, was not there.

I wonder how many of the rounds fired actually hit him and where they hit him? It took the acute lead poisoning a few seconds to finally work. I wonder what caliber too?

The man was obviously violent and had attacked the woman. While she is trying to crawl away injured the attacker approached her with a gun in his hand while ignoring the officer’s commands. Instead of protecting the woman on the ground, he retreated to cover letting the attacker stand over his victim and point a gun at her. If the guy had shot her her relatives would have been pissed, and rightfully so. I think he should have engaged the threat way before the guy got that close and not left an injured victim to fend for herself while he looked for cover.

Either way it worked out.

He is combat shooting, I doubt all those were strikes. Could of been, sometimes the body can take a lot of lead if not kill shots.
