But a remote operator might get cozy and the power might go to his head. Or he might act in bad faith. Or, if he is one who was deployed to the streets for a while might not unlearn his instincts. All of this will definitely cause a much smaller number of incidents, which is a better than the present, but one can expect the problem of unwanted shootings by the police to continue, as in, not be removed completely.

To prevent misuse or abuse, they must record the operator's desk and the supervisor providing the authorisation to fire. The real issue is responding in real-time to an ongoing attack or event. There needs to be proper training given that the court will tolerate no excuse for unnecessary shootings.
