Facing a suicidal man who holding a knife to his own throat, California cops said they had no choice but to shoot him dead.
After all, Santa Maria police said they had exhausted all nonlethal means during 30 minutes of negotiations with the 31-year-old man, which was when they shot him multiple times in front of dozens of witnesses, including one man who was recording.
The video shows several police officers standing behind a police car when they opened fire on July 21.

After spending more than $2 million for body cams earlier this year, Chicago police say they have no recording of the shooting that left an unarmed teenager dead last week.
But an autopsy confirms he was shot in the back, which is probably why the camera worn by the officer who killed him was inexplicably not working.
But that didn’t stop the family of 18-year-old Paul O’Neal to file a wrongful death federal lawsuit earlier today.

An Ohio cop narrowly avoided being sent back to prison for having sex with a 14-year-old boy after the state supreme court ruled in his favor last week, stating that a law barring cops from having sex with minors was unconstitutional.
In the 4-3 decision, the Ohio Supreme Court determined the law violated the state’s Equal Protection Clause of both the U.S. Constitution and the Ohio Constitution because it imposed a higher standard on cops than it did for the general public.

A video going viral shows two Orlando police officers struggling to arrest a man before he makes his way into his car and drives away, leaving the two cops grasping for air as they both wind up on the ground.
The surprising part is that the cops did not pull out their guns and fire at the fleeing vehicle.
It looked as if the thought never crossed their minds.
Instead, one cop stands himself up, pulls out his radio and says, “Silver Audi. Black male driving. High rate of speed. Southbound on Orange. He’s going down C.”

Corrections officers at a Kentucky jail humiliated a woman by taking her to court with no pants and giving her no feminine hygiene products during her three-day incarceration, leaving a local judge shocked and dumbfounded.
“Am I in the Twilight Zone?” asked Jefferson District Court Judge Amber Wolf as the woman with no pants stood before her.

In Pine Bluff, Arkansas, militarized SWAT cops decorated themselves with “Medals of Valor” for killing 107-year-old Monroe Isadore, who reportedly supported his local cops during his enduring decades of living.
Now Pine Bluff Police are defying an order to return their death medals.
Even after the Pine Bluff City Council voted unanimously to rescind them.

A New York cop finished making an arrest Thursday before turning to a man recording the arrest from across the street – a man who had not said a word to the officer – and threatened to arrest that man if he said another word.
Maurice “Mo” Crawley did not understand what the cop had just said, so he asked him to repeat himself.
And that was enough to get him arrested.
It was a blatant violation of Crawley’s Constitutional rights as well as a clear case of retaliation from a cop who did not appreciate being recorded.

Despite the fact that a witness said Jermaine McBean never pointed a gun at a South Florida deputy who ended up shooting and killing him, a Florida judge took the word of the deputy when he dismissed manslaughter charges against him on Wednesday, basing his decision on the state’s “stand your ground” law.
The decision means that Broward County sheriff’s deputy Peter Peraza will be spared a possible 30-year sentence.

Body camera footage released Wednesday shows an Arizona cop responding to a shoplifting call wasted no time before shooting a Navajo woman five times in the chest after she approached him with a small pair of medical scissors.
“She had a pair of scissors that she used to cut her hair’s split-ends,” David Villaescusa, Loreal Tsingine’s cousin who helped raise her since she was ten, told nativenewsonline.net.

A New Jersey man is $175,000 richer after settling with the capitol city of Trenton after officers kicked and punched him while siccing a police dog on him for recording their vicious assault of a woman while calling her a “bitch” and “cunt”.
Police also confiscated his camera and deleted his footage, but were unable to delete footage from another man recording as well as footage from a surveillance camera. Both those videos are below.
