He had a knife… on a stick.

I’ll need to see the video on this one, officers, but for now, mark me as damned skeptical that this killing was self-defense.

    He had a knife taped to a stick.
    They put numbered him.

    They could have done a lot more than just kill him.

    We don’t have video anyways to know exactly what happened.

    None of the officers were wearing body cameras.
