Way back in 2017 , before “all the good ones” left or were forced out .

They wanted to question Isaiah about his brothers whereabouts and possible connection to a shooting , Isiah ran away- and Sacramento PD officer Villicruz shot the unarmed teen in the back of the head.

They marveled at the “good shot “ and waited serval minutes to call for medical attention, and even handcuffed him while his brain was on the ground - in case an unarmed kid was still dangerous.

Instead of treating it like a murder - almost 8 years of legal wrangling resulted in a near $5 million dollar settlement to the family. But deemed the shooting justified I guess they were afraid of a young kid they wanted to question about someone else .
 
Fleeing Felon.

Under US Law the fleeing felon rule was limited in 1985 to non-lethal force in most cases by Tennessee v. Garner, 471 U.S. 1. The justices held that deadly force "may not be used unless necessary to prevent the escape and the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious bodily harm to the officer or others."

A police officer may not seize an unarmed, nondangerous suspect by shooting him dead...however...Where the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a threat of serious physical harm, either to the officer or to others, it is not constitutionally unreasonable to prevent escape by using deadly force.

Same people my ass. Uh… Tennessee v garner is an 1985 case not a 1845. You’re off (in the head) a few dozen decades. This case gives you everything you’re whining about and you still aren’t happy. Typical liberal woman

“Legal scholars have expressed support for this decision stating that the decision had "a strong effect on police behavior" and specifically that it can "influence police use of deadly force."[3]

Yeah. Same class of people. Out of touch oligarchs.


You think the original post fits the fleeing felon definition ?
Do you understand equality under the law , laws apply to everyone equally ? Cut outs for special animals are unconstitutional. Period

Well that’s all well thanks for helping - the kid was not a fleeing, they just wanted to ask him about his brother , and he’s under 0 obligation to answer any questions about his brother or anything else .

Where did the fleeing felon come into play? Isiah wasn’t wanted in connection to the crime , wasn’t wanted for any crime .
