Just blew his brains out and lied about it. Guy was barely even driving away.

Usually campus cops at public universities are sworn officers like the city/county/state police. They're also usually considered state employees just like state police/troopers.Wondering if he'd be as balls deep on the hate train if it was Cincinnati PD is all. It's not just a private PD issue we face in this country but an overall issue with policing. Sorry, I'm getting tangential.
I'd think training and requirements are similar. But yeah could be some differences in union representation? I don't know. But they're certainly not private.
Hard to see from the presser video but did he pull the gun on him before Dubose even starting rolling away?
Kind of what it looked like. All of a sudden the officer has his hand in the vehicle for no reason and you hear the car moving.

So looks like Officer Tensing was trying to get Dubose out of the car (told him to take off his seatbelt, looks like he tried the door handle), then quickly started trying to pull(?) Dubose out via the car window, Dubose resisted, and then the officer just drew his gun and shot Dubose in the head during the struggle.
Sound right?
Sound right?

MSNBC edited it, showed nothing, not even clear what happened.
Wow, was wondering why I couldn't see shit. Fuck the MSNBC stream.
Did they blur out some of the video or was it the officer running that made the video look like that?
It was on MSNBC
I think it was running that made the video after the shooting incomprehensible.

Anyone else think the prosecutor seems... drunk?
Not drunk. Worn out. Disgusted.
Yup that was straight up murder. They showed the full unedited video on their site.
No way you can excuse that.
which site?

Yeah, it looked like the officer starting grabbing at him from the window, and after about 2 seconds of struggling he suddenly shoots him in the head for no reason. The driver then careers off to one side in an attempt to get away, but is obviously dying in those moments from the wound.

A lot of university cops are private not public I thought.

I guess I'm just so weirded out that a prosecutor is being this damning towards a cop.

Legitimately surprised we have a murder charge. Pleasantly so.

Local news stream showed it unedited.Who showed it unedited?

Not at all.
I looked away to do something, I heard the cop ask him to take his seatbelt then heard shots, what happened?
Struggle that lasted about 1 second (guessing, I think the driver was trying to put the car in drive), the officer came out with his gun and fired immediately, (I assume) drivers foot jammed against the gas pedal until he ran into a pole at the end of the street

"If you disobey a cop you be killed! He should have known better!"Now we will get the "he was no saint" and "he should have obeyed the officer" articles and usual bullshit.
The other feeds showed the raw footage

You can rewind on that feed. Starts at 13:20

I saw it unedited. It's hard to tell what even happened. One second they're talking to each other, then a shot, then first person "running cam." Hard to see what exactly happened.

I don't think you wonder. I think you know the answer.
My audio feed died for a second or 2 and then came back and a reporter had just asked a question and he mentioned that he got tased and shot. What was that about?
Did the other cop tase him first from the other side of the car or something? That might explain why he even started driving off in the first place?
Either way, that shit was blatant as fuck and I hope they put this dude in the darkest hole they can find.

Given the brevity of the encounter, from conversation to gun shot, it is immediately clear the shooting was entirely unwarranted. There is absolutely no reason the officer had to fire the gun, it was murder.

I understand. I'm just saying if you only saw the "edited" version, and you're looking for the unedited version, you're not missing much. I don't know how they could even edit it. It hardly shows anything.

Probably, but at least the cop is getting a murder charge instead of internal investigation and administrative leave.
Body cams are leading to slow progress.
EDIT: Also, is it common for American universities to have their own police departments? My campus had like 3 security guards in a little house, armed with flashlights.
