Talk about fucked up. A California Cop shoots an airman point blank four times.

You can here the cop tell him to get up, when he gets up the cop shoots him 4 times at point blank range. Then when the man falls from getting shot, the cop tells him to "shut the fuck up" then calls for backup. The man was un armed as well.

I guess he just got back from a full tour in Iraq fighting for our country to be shot by a overzealous asshole.

Cops like this should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. There was no reason to shoot him as he didn't appear to pose any threat on the officer.

What do you think the cops penalty should be?

Discuss.

[Talian]

WTF -what happened to serve & protect?
The cop needs to go to jail.!!!
What happened to the guy who got shot?

[CVD]

So did the guy make it?

Im gonna go with the full penalty for manslaughter or attempted murder, whichever the case may be.

[Halon]

I think that cop should have to answer to "The Impaler"! I saw this on the news as well, and I agree he should receive that maximum punishment.

[dsm10sec]

That cop needs to be thrown in jail and forgot about. Like CVD, I'm wondering if the guy is still alive, you can hear him... Screaming from pain..

[x-pride]

I think the cop got jelious becuase he was driving a Vette. I can't believe he shot him point blank four times. Lucky for him someone caught it on video. If they did not the cop would of got away scott free. Shit I am just waiting for some St. Paul cop to shoot me for driving a Honda. I been pulled over by St. Paul cops for driving a wanna be Civic. Which my car is an Accord but evertime they site me a ticket it always say Honda Civic. Yes, everytime I going in front of the hearing officer it gets thrown out because I did nothing wrong. I am thinking about installing a video camera in my car so each time they pull me over I have proof in court that I get pulled over for no apparent reason and the cop is just waisting good government time on stupid useless shit. When he can be pulling cars with no bumpers or all there tail lights not working over. Sorry for taking the story away. I have never been pulled over in any of the 8 states I lived in until I moved to MN.

Yeah it was pretty fucked up. I have watched it a few times to see if the guy did anything to provoke the cop and I can't see anything. What a piece of shit.

Go and serve your country just to get shot by some asshole. I have no clue if he made it.

[TheBlizzard]

I found the small article actually, the guy is in good condition. There was no news of the officer and what charges he faces if anything.



CHINO, Calif. - A home video released Tuesday shows a sheriff’s deputy shooting a man as he apparently heeds an order to get up off the ground after a car chase.

The FBI is investigating possible civil rights violations in the shooting, said Thom Mrozek, spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles.

KTLA-TV aired a 40-second clip it said came from a Chino resident who videotaped Sunday night’s shooting in front of his house. The shooting followed a short 100-mph car chase.

While he was on the ground, the man appeared to tell the deputy he was in the military and was unarmed.

Senior Airman Elio Carrion, 21, who recently returned from Iraq, was listed in good condition at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton.

I saw this on the news and believe this isnt the only one that has happened... Some people think that if they are a Police Officer they can do whatever they want and get away with it because the judge will take their word over yours.

Punish him as if he wasn't an officer. Attempted murder or assault with a deadly weapon. He will probably get off easily. Fuckers.

[CarPsyco84]

that would would be interesting in court, when the airmans lawyer asks, what exactly provoked you to shoot the defendant?

[1slowdsm]

Man, that's just fucked up. I feel sorry for the guy. They send him over to fight the war, risking his life and then coming back to only get shot so many times by a dumbass cop. I bet he didnt even get hurt in the war in Iraq and here he is in his safe country being shot. He didnt even do anything wrong. Cops like that should be punished to the maximum. They should first have the officers badge removed and take him to trial like a normal criminal. I sometimes think they get off way too easily because they are "officers of the law." IMO

He had a gun of course! He was reaching for it...you all saw it.

[tim]

That cop is fucked.

The video tells a lot and with the man living he will be able to testify too.

I agree that the max sentance should be carried out on the cop unless there is something we arent seeing, which I highly doubt.

[iceminion]

Being an Iraq vet, I am very tempted to play the "im a vet, i should be treated like fucking royalty" card, but so far, the only abuse I have done is asked for 10% off at autozone (because they had a sign saying military personel could get 10% off)
TECHNICALLY, that was a violation on my part, im not susposed to advertise it.

So the air jock buys a corvette and speeds, totally unresponsible. but he did pull over, which im sure the vette could have made mincemeat of the crowne vicky.

Its actually good to tell the officer that you are in service of the government, that tells the cops several things really quickly:
1. You are NOT the enemy, you are NOT scum (marines excluded), and you pose NO threat to the officer who pulled you over
2. Your commanding officer is gonna ream you a new one if whatever you did was caught on tape
3. At the point the dude told the cop that he was military, the cop should have offered a him a drink, or a handjob or something, not SHOOT 4X IN THE CHEST

Thank god the glock is not a powerful pistol, some cops like to carry around heaver weapons, if it was a 40 cal (or hell, im sure some cops carry the desert eagle) the guy would be dead several times over.

Finally, the cop did not know that he was on video tape, what about his car? if I knew that my own video equipment was pointed at me, I would be very careful what happens while my own squad car tapes me, ill bet that the cop pointed his car off the road, or turned the camera off.....if so, then I think the fucker should hang....I believe that in some instances, public torture(followed by a slow death) is necessary in this country for those who need it

[niterydr]

I hope he meets some of the people he arrested when he goes to jail .
Fucking douchbag.

[SlowWhite]

Doubt much will happen to the police officer other then getting fired. Look at Rodney King as just 1 example, I totally wish he'd go to jail for attempted murder, etc. Would start to set an example.

[TheBlizzard]

The person that got shot was not driving the Vette, it was his friend. And the car crashed after a brief chase.

[ShiftyGears]

Im so shocked, I don't even know what to say about that. It makes you look at cops differently.

-Shifty

[Kracka]

Thats screwed up, hopefully he rots in prison for that.
