[QUOTE="Poke78, post: 2733651, member: 4333"] The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office has completed its investigation into a deadly shooting involving one of their deputies. Eric Harris was shot and killed during an undercover operation by reserve Deputy Robert Bates. Deputies were trying to arrest Harris as a part of an undercover gun buy. The Sheriff's office previously said Bates thought he was grabbing his Taser instead of gun when he shot at Harris. An independent reviewer hired by the sheriff's office says this type of confusion is common in law enforcement and is called slips and capture. The sheriff's office highlighted previous cases where the slips and capture theory was used in the decision to not file charges. Investigators turned over their files to the District Attorney's office earlier this afternoon. No word yet on if prosecutors will file charges.
