‘We do not expect the officers to wait until they’re fired upon before they feel the necessity to fire’ Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge said of the incident
You’re so confident, just because it lines up with your favorite way to look at things, even though you have literally no idea what happened.
Confidence and easy answers that always point the same direction, that feel good and let you be righteous about what you’re saying, are alluring. They feel safe and solid, and people trust them. Be careful of that.
That’s not a video, that’s a screen grab. It looks like the video itself on the site only shows from the second officer’s camera, and fades out when the shooting starts. xor said they’d watched the video of the actual incident… but maybe they meant this video which doesn’t really show a damn thing. Am I missing something?
I mean maybe they are not releasing the first person video because it clearly shows the kid’s hands were empty or something, and the officer lied when he said the kid brandished his gun at him. I have no idea. This screen grab could be right after showing his hands empty, or this could be a frame from 0.2 seconds after the kid pointed his gun at the cop just like the cop said, or something in between.
Okay, so it sounds like you haven’t actually seen a video of the incident. You’ve seen a video of the dumpster and heard shots being fired as the screen turns grey. Good to know.
What, the video that doesn’t show the relevant part of the shooting or the segment that includes the screengrab?
I thought maybe I was the weird one, so I went back and watched the whole thing just to make sure. No, it’s basically B-roll and the chief talking and the least relevant part of the incident. That’s it. The video tells you nothing at all about what happened.

Where’s the video of this incident? I didn’t know it had been released.
It’s in the link they posted. Here’s the screen grab of where they shot him in the back.
