Dash cam video evidence - multiple witnesses - the victim pleaded with the police officer NOT to be ordered to drive the car - then the officer shoots him 5 times killing him because he complied with the officers orders
When will the Supreme Court give the citizens of the country relief from abuses of the Supreme Courts 1998 decision
Of course the officer claimed "I was in FEAR" and was cleared of all wrong doing and is now back on duty - WITH A GUN
Leading up to the incident, police were called to the scene related to Domingue driving recklessly in the parking lot. As events unfolded and he was taken into custody, Magee either told or asked (accounts differ) Harris to move Dominique's car despite witnesses saying Harris told Magee he was drunk.
Harris was shot while moving the car after he smashed into various vehicles in the parking lot, including police cruisers. Magee said at the time he was worried for his safety, and those around him, so he opened fire. Harris was shot dead. Magee also suggested Harris had some sort of weapon.
"He told [Officer Magee] he was drunk...[But Magee] commanded him to move the car," witness Aisha Loliss

The dash cam video shows Magee cold blooded execution of Harris
While the Supreme Court authorized the suspension of our Constitutional Rights - I don't believe they intended to allow the police to obtain the role of Judge, Jury, and Executioner

Time to purge the police rolls and start over, using the strictest and most invasive psychological evaluations possible to weed out the cranks, bullies, goons, racists, ammosexuals and every other kind of dangerous loony.
