High Ranking Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

Just saw another video from a better angle. I will stand firm on “bullshit”. This was not an attempt to run ICE over.

Yeah he went from filming her with his phone to drawing his weapon and firing in about 1.5 seconds. Shot in the face.

The chief of police does say she was using her vehicle to block ICE vehicles from using the road, which does not warrant that kind of use of force.

In hindsight she might have been panicking and just went into the black.

From the videos posted here what I see is an ICE officer (stupidly) standing right in front of her vehicle. She accelerates towards him as she's turning the SUV In an attempt to leave after being told to get out of the car at least 3 times. She misses him by less than a foot. A few less degrees on the steering wheel and she would have ran him over.

Why did he position himself in front of the vehicle?

And in the longer videos we can clearly see her yielding to them, waving and clear as day saying "go around".

This will be challenging to articulate.
In the videos it looks and sounds like he fired the first round directly into the front windshield and she accelerated toward him. Including muzzle blast. I think he's safe there (in terms of it being a justified use of force)

There's two shots though so if he fired again from the angle that you posted then yeah he might have a hard time explaining that. Which one was the kill shot will be a key factor.
 
He’s an idiot. I’ve seen three videos now and they don’t remotely suggest that she had any such intent.

The lies and BS out of Trump, Noem, and others is just going to make this work. Something this happens, shut up, call for calm, pledge a full and transparent investigation, and then do that.

You don’t. Stand. In. Front. Of. Cars. If you find yourself there, you move. Shooting at a driver doesn’t stop a car coming your way; it’s ineffective. He had all the time and space he needed to not be in the dangerous area in front of a vehicle. This is literally why so many agencies including mine specifically train not to be in that space, and have policy against attempting to stop a vehicle by shooting at it.

Will be ultimately be convicted of a crime? I can’t say. Was this utterly avoidable and unnecessary? Absolutely.
 
Why did he position himself in front of the vehicle?

The usual reason is 'ego'.

The vehicle has a license plate. If you stay alive you can remember that and go get them later if required.

If you or the driver are dead or injured, there's usually alot of messy paperwork.
