    Did you hear it? The officer said he was "completely in fear of his life" with Rodney King. Some lies never change. #LA92

        Very well coached, I believe. He had to justify beating an unarmed man, so reiterated fear King would take his weapon = reasonable fear? BS

        They ALWAYS say that, and the hell of it is that's the only thin veneer they need to justify shooting someone in eyes of prosecutors/courts

        The worst part is, he might not have been lying. Fear needs to be faced in simulation before one is ready to face it live. Training needed.
