I feel like CBS is trying to race bait here. A "white police officer".....that's unnecessary. "Former police officer" would have worked just fine.

Let's remember how he LIED on his police report. He planted a weapon on him. He lied & said they tried to resuscitate him! After a SCPD Investigation *nothing was done*. Then the video was released... This police system is SO CROOKED AND BROKEN.

I can't believe it's not first-degree murder -- he obstructed the investigation and the evidence was unequivocal that he shot Walter Scott in the back. Even in delivering justice, we can't seem to deliver justice.

I’m asking for clarification. Doesn’t premeditation have to be proven before you can charge someone with first-degree murder?
-
2nd degree is right
-
The confederate-themed shirt he was wearing under his uniform couldve lent to a case for first degree but the judge ruled it irrelevant to the case.

It was irrelevant
