Re: UT: Screwdriver v Gun, Homework Assignment
No one’s health was at risk. The Officer closed the distance and placed himself in peril ( if there was any). Your attitude of “I’m going home safe tonight” has gotten innocent people killed. The job is inherently dangerous. If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

I get it that there were two people to be concerned with, but IMHO the officer is the one that escalated this by closing in on her. What threat was she out back there with only her, her friend, and the two officers? What am I missing? She didn't charge at him. I don't get it.

There was no need to close on the subject. No one needed to be at risk.

He closed ground and put himself in a compromising situation. A bean bag round would have knocked the snot out of her. Also I saw two Officers present. Should have been able in handle her without shooting her,

Re: UT: Screwdriver v Gun, Homework Assignment
Total fail by Officer. Officer had an open field of engagement. Officer failed in his use of non lethal means. Officer actually closed ground and was not "chased" as the report states. Total fail in my opinion.
