I'm still confused here...........if he was shooting up into a tree, how did the fucking bullet hit the kid? Ah fuckit...........the kid's in a better place than we are, guarandamntee you that.
The injustice of this sad incident is the fact the cop will walk on any potential charges. If it had been a regular citizen they would be charged with involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide, but not a cop. They play by different rules than the rest of us. They are protected by the DA's office, who are the real power brokers in the criminal justice system. The department will pay to settle the civil lawsuit, of course covered by insurance, but there will not be any criminal charges brought against the cop. These things seem to happen all the time.
I didn't even read the article. Way to sad. I don't watch much of the news. Way to sad. I try to surround myself with positive things but keep my ear peeled for the negative ones, just to be prepared.
