    A week after fatally shooting a black man who was running away from him, a Georgia police officer was fired and jailed for voluntary manslaughter and violating his oath of office https://cbsn.ws/2IB3ZNN pic.twitter.com/EEJQMZzAnZ

        Just wondering how would you shoot someone "running away" from you and it's "manslaughter"? It was deliberate. It was murder.

        He’s right. Murder is a higher charge that carries more proof of intent. Manslaughter is easier to get a conviction, and will still put him behind bars for a very long time.

        Because that officer has a history with POC and should never have been hired

        You could be right, I would have difficulty believing the officer hadn't considered that perspective before he acted.

        Not disputing some of the charges BUT the Victim/Suspect would be alive today if he wasn't involved in a felony Drive By Shooting as well.

        Any officer that shoots an unarmed man that is running away should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law

        Don’t give me wrong, the officer deserves to be tried and convicted; no one should be shot at unless they present a danger. But I was just wondering, why did the victim and the passenger run? Seems like we don’t know the full story.

        I don't believe he'll be convicted of anything. There will probably be a hung jury, a mistrial, or an acquittal. These guys frequently get away without any consequences.
