Of course some cops would, could, have and do fabricate stories, plant evidence and so on. This doesn't look like one of those situations. We are on the internet, talking to strangers, all we have right now is speculation about what transpired and that's why we are here, to piece things together in a discussion, then when the official story comes out, dissect that even more. A 911 caller says a man ditched his car saying it might blow up and seemed to be on something. The officer responds to an unknown situation with the variables; possible explosives &/or a drug addled person. The officer didn't know at the time but we now known that Terence has arrests for: 2013- DUI OPEN CONTAINER RESISTING ARREST SPEEDING 2014- INTOXICATED & DISTURBING PEACE DUI PUBLIC - OPEN INTOXICATION Nothing crazy, a lot of us have been horrendously intoxicated in public but lucky enough to get away with it. Not character assassination, this info adds credibility that he was in some way intoxicated. Doesn't prove it but it adds plausibility. We will find out with the tox-report There is about a 2 min gap between the start of the interaction and the start of both the dashcam and helicopter footage. In that time we know the officer radio'd to dispatch that Terence wasn't cooperating with her commands. Cue the footage and we see the officer back towards the rear of her car with her weapon drawn and Terence's hands in the air. What is your speculation about all this? Mine is that he was high and didn't cooperate and she had poor trigger discipline and shot him after being startled by the taser firing. Fuck ups all around.
