Raw Video Shows Cops Shoot, Kill Subdued Man, Mock Him While He Lay Dying
Yet another extrajudicial execution from a police force. In this case the suspect was shot by a reserve volunteer officer of 73 years of age who confused his taser with a gun. This comes from the mentality that some police have that anyone who runs gets tased, beat down, or killed even after they stop resisting or running. Accidental or not I still have lots of questions about this one.
The final tragic moments of Eric Harris’s life were caught on video, as well as the sociopathic nature of law enforcement. Harris was accidently shot by a reserve deputy, apparently meaning to taser him, while on the ground being subdued by other officers.
“He shot me! He shot me, man. Oh, my god. I’m losing my breath.”
To which an officer gives a response that can only be described as sociopathic, telling the dying Harris, “Fuck your breath! Shut the fuck up!”Harris can be seen on the video running from police as the officer with the body cam gives chase, catching and taking Harris to the ground. Once on the ground the officer can be heard telling Harris, “Roll on your stomach now.”Reserve officer Robert Bates, 73, can be heard yelling “Tazer! Tazer!” as if to inform the other officer that he was about to use his stun gun on Harris, when suddenly a gunshot rings out.
“I shot him!” the stunned reserve officer says, as he drops his gun onto the ground. “I’m sorry.”
