I don't know what happened..only can see what is shown so you may be correct. Still...it seemed overkill to me. Pun intended.He wanted to get the hell out of there and run again, thats what.They were NOT trying to hit him with their car. That cop is a bad one. He got away with murder.
OK, then what was the driver attempting to do? The video surely shows him backing the car up toward the police officer's side of the patrol car.
Do you think he wanted to congratulate the officer for being able to keep up with hi on the 100+ mph chase?
He had it under control with the first 11 shots. They weren't going anywhere. To have the time to reload and fire 10 more times? Beating the dead horse. In this case, the dead hooligans.
I guess you are just smarter than the members of the Grand Jury. Russell County Alabama is across the river from Fort Benning, GA and is the home of a huge number of Army personnel living off post. ,I doubt very seriously that there was anything amiss with the makeup of the Grand Jury. Why do you question their ability to assess the evidence, which you have not even seen nor heard?
Personally, in my opinion, the cop was pissed after the chase and high from adrenaline and it got the better of his judgement. I mean..come on. They are pleading and he takes time to reload, then fires 10 more shots?
