Re: All acquited
If it isn't illegal for a police officer to panic unnecessarily, than it should be grounds for said officer's dismissal.

Mount Vernon, NY | That may well be but it doesn't warrant conviction on a criminal charge. We'll see what a civil jury decides.
I also believe the Federal govt is looking at civil rights violations. |

said by roc5955  :If it isn't illegal for a police officer to panic unnecessarily, than it should be grounds for said officer's dismissal. See, I think they did panic. And yes, I think they should be fired... but to try them in a criminal court means you have to prove motive, which is lacking.
It's a tragedy for everyone really. And the political grandstanding WILL NOT HELP.
