Kerik says Rayshard Brooks 'would be alive today if he didn't resist and

At what point did Rayshard Brooks disarm the officer?
I wonder how the officer shot Mr Brooks without his gun.

What he means is that he would be alive if he hadn't resisted arrest and
taken the officers's taser and pointed it at him. He may have fired it
too. He also assaulted the cops trying to arrest him for DWI.
He's another example of death by stupidity, but sadly they don't learn.
It's highly unlikely a jury will convict that cop of anything. Would you
stand there and allow him to taser you? Tasers can and have killed.
Suppose he puts your eye out? Are you prepared to live with that,
because some jerk chooses to go crazy?


Cops always claim tasers are non-lethal. You think they can now suddenly
claim they are lethal and get a court to accept that. THAT will be an
interesting discussion in court.


I don't know much about this, and the one video I looked at the man
being chased was out of view afaict at the critical part, but he seemed
to be running away and turning back at the same time. The odds of him
actually hitting the cop with the taser are about as high as in cowboy
movies when one man on horseback turns around, while riding foward and
bouncing up and down, and shoots the guys following him. Who are also
bouncing up and down and moving forward.


What was his intent in firing the weapon in their direction?
