One More for the Killer Cop Files: TX Cop Shoots Unarmed Man 41 Times

http://clibertyc.com/?p=96509

The link may (or may not) be to a conservative web site, but it contains the actual local news broadcast about the incident.

The cop had to RELOAD TWICE to make sure the unarmed guy was really, really dead.

We need a national commission on law enforcement standards and practices.

And, we live in the most peaceful era in human history.

Will you blame them if the next person is someone you care about? Or will you keep trying to blame innocent people.

I live in Arlington and just checked local news. Nothing. I know nothing of this source but would suggest you check further.

On edit: found it. This happened in February.
