The cops went from killing you during traffic stops to killing you at your house smh
They hate Black men.
@@Attorney.42 you mean black people??? White people do it all the time it's called gun rights and protecting your home I have a video of a white guy came to the door with a rifle the cop on scene didn't shoot him 6 times

@@Attorney.42 What law says that? Do home invasions no longer exist? Did the 2a and the rights of law-abiding citizens to defend themselves inside their own homes suddenly disappear? Are we a true police state now?

Put this cops in prison for breaking the law now
Exactly
What law did he break
@@jamesdouthat3999 he had no reason to shoot him, just cause your a cop doesn’t mean you can pull your gun out and shoot somebody😂
@@Flareman-qc2uiwe dnt know that yet
The problem is when answering the door with law enforcement on the other side, any move you make can be deemed as a threat, and when Fortson's left arm came up, the officer made the fatal mistake. He won't be charged.
Acorn cops, at it again.
It's The SAME EXACT agency
Yup. At it again. It’s sad
Well God didn't let a damn acorn drop in the other cities but keep rolling the dice and see how God gets even and he doesn't care about the age of people as you can see around the country but just keep on doing that stuff
Wasn't the slogan yrs ago- if you feel like a nut------?????
Kinda reminds me of the great Klingon Tribble Hunt
The lady who called and showed him the apartment should face some charges also
She told the officer it was the fourth floor multiple times, you can see in the bodycam footage that he exited on the third floor and stayed on it. She even told him before he entered the elevator because he asked and she said yes it's the fourth floor.
@@Meh71016 four is a very high number. cops will say that justifies the killing because in cop training they do not teach numbers.
@@Meh71016she also knows the apartment number on the forth floor that’s cops responded to 6 times for domestic violence and knew it wasn’t the poor airman’s apartment number she’s guilty also

Smh. I don’t know how anybody could have the opinion in this original comment unless they are someone who does not have the ability to think more than one step ahead. Based on this premise, I would never call the police if I thought a woman was getting her skull beat in. if I see men committing a home invasion, I won’t call the police there either. Because I always could be wrong. Maybe the men were just playing around when they acted like they kick in the door, and they were just delivering guns that the homeowner had actually bought from them. Or maybe they held something else it look like a gun. I mean, how can any adult literally have this type of thought process. I’m not even trying to be nasty, I really don’t get it.
Cop making excuse for another cop
Exactly 💯 agree
Does not deserve airtime on our news
This Captain is not an expert! This shooting was not justified!
I take it you are an expert in police officer involved shootings?
Please explain how it was a justified shooting. You can’t just say it, and it’s true. If it’s your opinion, then say, my opinion. Use of Force is judged by the Graham Factors. Yes, I have extensive experience.

Yeah hees an idiot.because t he should have is everything alright.are u safe this is law enforcement can u open the door. Do I need to call back up. INSTEAD he jon wickt the man. No I'm not buying it.
The captain isn't no expert despite his 30 years.....he made no comment about the deputy firing 6X and then saying put down your weapon! Apparently, that's protocol too for law enforcement!!!!
Our safety doesn't matter but the cops safety matters.
White cops safety matters. Correction. They don’t care about cops. Just white ones
Ain't that the truth.

@@jamesdouthat3999don’t know if you know anything called the 2nd amendment but do research on it before you ignorantly comment. He also had the gun pointed down. In thousands of other videos when you see cops yelling at a suspect to drop the gun and they have it pointed down they don’t shoot. He didn’t even give him a chance to drop it.
There’s no excuse put the cop in jail!!!
The Airman’s gun was pointed down, Other hand in the air..... That cop needs cuffs.
He raised his hand like saying stop. How is that aggressive?

FACTS 💯
You graduated at the top of your class, didn't you?
😂🤡🤡
You have evidence the cop went their with the intent to kill this young man? Idiot.
Just because he announced himself doesn’t mean he was heard!
I believe the guy was heard on body cam as well as the released FB live call saying that the police were there.
And it doesn't mean you are who you say you are.Cop should have called for back up.There are to many young,testosterone filled,trigger happy,undertrained,high school graduates with only a GED and a 6 month participation certificate from the police academy that are on the force.Most are scared and timid and have no business on the streets with a fast car,gun,badge,and license with authority.

@@NopeUghUghAbsolutelyNotexcept he wasn’t deaf. If he was, you’d have a point here. But he wasn’t and you don’t.
Why is everyone trying to justify this? This monster mowed down a young service member in his apartment without just cause. If I have a knife in my hand from making dinner when I answer am I going to get half a magazine unloaded on me too? It’s ridiculous.
I am pro police and i agree. A thorough and open investigation to the facts should be done by an independent police organization.
You should look into a case from San Jose, Ca around 2007. A Cop walked into a wrong home, discovering a Vietnamese woman prepping food in her kitchen. She challenged his presence in her home, again, while at the counter cutting vegetables with a plastic knife. Officer Blue unloaded on her fearing for his life and San Jose PD basically told the husband you need to drop your lawsuit against us before well pay. As soon as they settled the husband and two grade school daughters left the Bay. I was doing home healthcare at the time servicing the asian community and would get to hear all of the community chatter.
Yeah but the victim is African American and it's Florida so like it's very ....nevermind the cop was in the wrong u made a great point aronyeip.
@@rondodson5736 the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (top state agency) IS conducting the investigation. Okaloosa SO has relinquished this investigation to them.
@@randalllakeworth3134 wrong, being black is why there's even an investigation. Look at the Escambia county cop that went down to ft Walton bch got drunk at Red Rose and shot and killed a white guy after leaving the bar.. Okaloosa county swept it under the rug
This cop straight up murder this guy. The video speaks for itself.
Didn't the deputy get off on the 3rd floor after being told by the lady the 4th floor and he confirmed? Or is it me, but I saw 3 on the elevator ~ please tell me if I'm wrong somebody
@@mselaine2162 Has there been an update on this?

He won’t go down for anything. Even if the government tries to hold him accountable (which they won’t) a jury of bootlickers won’t convict him.
@@rogueamerican20 Patriots want to know the officer's name!
Unfortunately, the deputy was legitimately responding to a domestic violence call and was duty-bound to investigate the situation. In the course of this investigation he was presented with the subject of the investigation who was holding a weapon. If the Airman hadn’t been standing in front of him with a gun the there’s a nearly 100% chance that this would have been a non-event. The Airman made a really poor choice and here we are.
@@mikeedwards2537 you saying “duty bound,” automatically renders your comment dumb. The cops have no duty to act. Read a book.
There was no justification for this murder. Period. Who made this call? Nawwwww this dude is wrong for his assertions.
Leasing office called
Karen next door!
If this was a UPS driver making a delivery who shot the resident, he would already be charged and in jail.
I still don't understand why he opened fired on him like that... this is not self defense but straight up murder because his gun was down and he has his out telling him don't shoot why he not in jail.
Incorrect. It takes a fraction of a second to point a gun at someone. Constitutional case has determined police respond to the threat of violence, not the violence itself.
I do believe it matters if the cop already had his weapon drawn but only a slight difference. Either way he was wrong and should have the consequences.
Exactly
Because the acorn brigade is going to cover their fellow cowards
@@5ean5ean22so if a citizen is open carrying in public and he legally allowed to do that can a cop open fire on him? Because he perceived some threat of violence that has not happened yet? What gets me is that the military has ROE but police don’t?
Bringing in a cop to excuse another on paid leave with active duty soldier blood on his hands is mediocre. Recruitment is already unsustainable. 👮♂️mediocrity always has excuses.
They don’t care. Lol they never wanted the United States in the first place! Remember???? These are the same ones who wanted to preserve the confederacy?! What part of that you don’t understand!!!? Lol get it together. Lace your boots. Prepare.
That's exactly what this expert is doing, he's exonerating the cop through his interview!
The subject matter is not that the Airman came to the door with his gun, it is why did the officer shoot a man posing know threat to him. Former Police Captain stop trying to create a narrative to justify the shooting, you said it appears that the Airman’s gun was pointed down when you know good damn well the Airman’s gun was pointing down in his right hand and his left hand was up with palms open. The Airman showed more Transparency than the police officer and yet he is the one who gets killed. This officer needs to admit he was wrong by excepting very little information, because the woman said I believe the noise was coming from the top floor
Incorrect....you dont have to wait for a gun to be pointed at you to defend yourself. This is settled constitutional case law. Police are not mind readers and respond to the THREAT of violence not the violence itself. The person with an unholstered handgun has the advantage.
He opened the door with a gun because here lately the bad guys are knocking on the doors saying they are police and kicking in doors and robbing people I bet he looked through the peep hole and didn’t see any one standing there! So for the one guy saying he didn’t know why he answered the door with a gun haven’t been paying attention to the criminals or selective memory loss!!
💯
Facts!
You know the sad part is he was an Active Duty soldier and wasn’t deleted by ISIS but by American law enforcement!! As an Army veteran I wouldn’t want to be deleted by folks I pledge to protect.
Exactly 💯
Yes, as the policeman knocks he then in my opinion steps out of the peephole range, as some of the crime videos I have seen, with the criminal pretending to be actual police.
If you go back and listen to the original video you can here the airman yell who is it the police didn’t say anything
Life in prison WITHOUT parole or at least a DEATH SENTENCE.
1000 %
If the female officer who shit the kid eating cereal in he’s own home only got 10 years what you think this guy gonna get lol!! I mean 85% of the white ppl believe the cop did absolutely nothing wrong
I think you mean the other way around.
Officer safety, yours not so much.
Yeah that’s how a lot of these “don’t answer the door with a gun” feel too clearly
It was voluntary manslaughter. The department of justice needs to get involved. The cop needs prison time.
It was a murder.
@@rgw1380rw Correct!!
Lies because he didn't know. Also the gun was pointing down .This man just lied during this interview
What really makes me mad is THE COP hid from the door peep.
We don't give cops fancy cars and uniforms to hide around in.
That is their training. They are not supposed to stand in front of a door ever bc you don't know who is on the other side
If they are going to do that, then they need to put in place some escalation measures. Being a coward cost lives. The problem with their training is that they think theirs lives are more important then ours. Training should not conflict with law and policy is not law.
@@immovableobject6851 I'm sure their "training" shouldn't involve being trigger happy as well. They NEED to teach these officers better self-control and de-escalation techniques. Which that Veteran had his hand up defensively, not pointing a weapon AT THE OFFICER.
@@immovableobject6851No it’s not their training, don’t lie or makeup stuff. That is not normal at all. If someone knocks on my door and hinds; as if waiting to ambush me when I do open it… well that is why he came to the door like he did.
What really makes me mad, are people in comment sections made ridiculous statements.
They were responding to a domestic violence call.. in a domestic violence call they don't announce their presence, or stand in front of the peephole because they don't want the alleged offender to do something drastic to the alleged victim. Do you understand? Not only were they following their training, they were there TO HELP.
They made a mistake. Have you ever made a mistake? It happens. The officer that is crying on body camera is showing remorse. You know, a feeling somebody gets when they identify they've made a horrible mistake?
A better step is putting him in jail.... they don't care about the victim or his family... all that was irrelevant because he probably didn't know that he was the police officer... he just saw.a black men and just lost his mind... the question I have is why he shot him 6 times claiming self defense boy bye.
The after he has shot him 6x, have the nerve to scream stop moving where as he was already down, that was a cover up to make it seem like the young man was resisting, the dummies cop and his nosey Karen witness need to be thrown under the jail, whte women and their lies have been the reason so many innocent Blk men have lost their lives.
Shouldn't you be looking for your father?
@@ThisManTriggeredMe Shut up devil!
The deputy knocked and then stepped away from the peep hole several times. He's the reason the airman went to get his gun. Roobers and killers have been known to say they are the police to get victims to open the door. That itchy trigger finger cop didn't even give a command to drop the weapon. And then after the airman feel and dropped the weapon the cop starts yell as if he still had the gun. I'm glad the young man was able to say on cam that he didn't have the weapon which was obvious on the video.
Liar. THERE WAS NO PEEP HOLE. Obviously you have zero professional training, knowledge, experience, or skills in this area, AND you have no idea what actually happened. And yet here you are, flapping your lips...
Thank You MSB. I agree, u do NOT know who is screaming at ur door, then staying out of sight > could be anyone trying to get u to open up for any reason.
This is complete BS!!!!! Do not open door for police with a Gun Period!!!!!
😂😂😂 They have difficult time explaining it , because he was in his house and wasn’t threatening anyone, is living in America 🇺🇸 where the right to gun is legal and was specially trained to have a gun as an airman . And even saying loudly we are or I am the police isn’t good excuse not to have weapon with you . Because even criminals could say that to have access into your home
Or don’t open the door for police with a handgun in your hand.
@@mikeedwards2537 I bet you if he was white they wouldn't have shot him?
Never ever ever.!!!
You are exactly right. You are not required by law to open the door for the police if they do not present a warrant. You can communicate through the door. NEVER open the door for police. Never leave your door unlocked. I live in Dallas and in 2018 a black man was sitting in his apartment eating ice cream and an officer mistakenly went to the wrong apartment and shot the man dead thinking it was her apartment. She’s in prison. Rightfully so.
Could be someone posing as police..it does happen.
I don't open the door for fake cops either.
Damn right it does
@@alanfalleur6550 I have opened the door for actual police with gun in hand. In these times caution is more than necessary.
"It appears that the individual raised his, one hand in a almost defensive manner." He means in a manner that says wait!!!
Noise complaints become the use of deadly force. Nonsense!
Why did the lady in the parking area say she was unsure of the location but gave the sheriff apartment 1401?
These mayonnaise ppl man
That officer was in the wrong period he should never have been there from the start. That officer murdered this young man…..😮😮😮😮😮
Former cop huh...he said that the young man KNEW that the police was out there. We don't know that to be true. Can't help themselves, they're gonna defend each other even if it's slightly.
No justice no peace
28+years n law enforcement myself and I have concluded that based off of my personal experiences that we must always assume any statements made from law enforcement to be a lie designed to confuse the truth until proven otherwise via credible evidence.....period. Remember, with law enforcement, it's us (police) against them (citizens/you). No thought necessary when it comes to pulling the trigger once the officer saw the color of his skin (Black) and the gun (pointed in a safe direction DOES NOT MATTER IF MINORITY) it was in his mind a good shoot. If Roger Fortson was white, trust me when I say that caution and care would have been the order of the day. In the end, by changing nothing, nothing changes. The capt is an idiots/plant on here making excuses for the police officer are a disgrace to policing. They have no clue to current policies and procedures, and both are from the past. Remember, even though you spent 30 yrs in law enforcement you only have 2 yrs experience responding to situations similar to this. Remember folks, a capt. is a pen pusher and nowhere near the front lines/street only showing up after the fact to judge actions he can't do.
Second Truth: So the point to yell drop your gun after you shoot is a police tactic used to confuse the truth. In a shooting, there will probably be witnesses and police are trained to yell verbal commands after a shooting because law enforcement knows that witnesses are notoriously bad and just plain not reliable at best. Law enforcement takes advantage of this known truth to bolster their false narrative. Law enforcement knows that half of the witnesses will say "I heard the officer say drop the gun before, and half will say I heard the officer say it afterward". A 50/50 chance is a win in the eyes of law enforcement and the courts. Remember, law enforcement contends that citizens are stupid especially Black People, rich or poor.
As my mother repeatedly said during her PD career, it's a legalized gang. That system is corrupted as it gets.
Oh stop it with had he been white caution would have been taken. That’s bs I saw a cop light a white guy up because he lost his balance and fell forward. The cop made him get on his knees and the walk on his knees to him like a dog and the guy lost his balance fell forward and the cop unloaded his mag on him. Stop thinking everything is about race. Whites are killed more by police than anyone else and as a former cop you should know that. Black officers have killed black men as well why don’t you have anything to say about that?
A biased comment and i think purely based on race, not actual facts. From what the public has been shown i think the officer was probably not justified, but would want to view all the evidence before forming an opinion. As a former officer i stood for the rights of all regardless of race.
Same happened to Ryan Whitaker (white male) few years ago in Phoenix. Answered door with weapon in hand, thinking it was pranksters, immediately shot dead by bad cops. They shouldn't play the race angle because bad cops victimize people of all races.
The cops are Hitman for karens
Knock on my door, I’m telling you to get a warrant, until then, leave me alone.
LOL not funny but you are SO right !! It's getting scary to open your doors now damn. This Deputy took a great young man away .
This cop probably would have kicked down the door.
I'm not even saying that. I'm silent like a ghost when the police are blundering around. They can investigate outside in the easement to their hearts content.
When responding to a call, the police have the right to investigate without getting a warrant.After all if you are a victim of a crime would you want the police to wait until they could obtain a warrant ?
@rondodson5736 But the citizen also has the right to not answer the door and not speak to police. If the police decide to enter by physical force, that would be a highly questionable move if their own investigation comes up with basically nothing.
There was literally no officer safety issue except the one he created by the scary, unqualified officer. He saw a black man holding a weapon in a non-threatening manner and killed him. 2A does not apply to any black person when you police with racism and biases.
There was no disturbance in the victim's apartment; that's the first clue. The deputy hid his presence and voice initially. He then gave commands, from cover, after he shot the victim 6 tines. This captain is a clown and likely helped other officers commit the same reprehensible acts of violence. He wouldn't give this same critic if it was him or someone he actually cared about.
Appears my arse gun is clearly down
A cop covering up for the cops. He stepped away from the door after knocking. Miss me with this
Man just chill out and keep your cool and don't stop watching the news
I’m glad the naacp is getting involved. Black Lives Matters is quiet.
BLM don’t mean sheet!!! They just want money and try to use the race card to get it.
BLM might not exist after all the money was creatively redirected.
It's simple, Captain. It could've been anybody at the door claiming to be law enforcement. You just can't be too careful, these days. You see, there's TWO sides. Try looking at it from the dead man's side.
That hairless gentleman didn’t explain the first knock. He also leaned against the door and knocked, and said nothing. He moved out of sight for 33 seconds before knocking again and he then announced himself twice. But by that time it was too late because of the hide and seek games , the Airman went and retrieved his weapon.
He had is ear to the jam of the door, listening for something that would give him probable cause to enter. Someone screaming for help or something like that.
IN THE VIDEO THE FEMALE ESCORTING THE COP STATED SHE WAS NOT SURE WHAT APT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM? 👹
The man's hand is up in a non confrontational manner like just saying that's murder
The officer left the leasing office while a phone call was being made and trusted a random woman in the parking lot who did not even know what floor the apartment was on. She told him it was on the 4th floor. The officer went to the 3rd floor. How did the officer know it was on the 3rd floor?? It was a set up!!
He didn’t know! Because obviously when he looked out the peep hole, the murderer was standing out of view! That’s when Mr Fortson went to retrieve his weapon! Also keep in mind that he had already been a victim of a burglary! This so-called cop decided to simply fire first and fire multiple shots which means that he had no regard for Mr Fortson’s life anyway, especially when saw that he was black!!! He took the time to say “step back “! And then 6 rounds! When he could’ve said drop the gun!!! And should have noticed that Mr Fortsons gun was barrel down and finger off the trigger! Cop only saw a black man with a gun!!!
I have some questions for commenting cop.
I realize they'll never be answered because it would contradict his preconceived narrative.
What kind of neighborhood is this apartment in, is it the type of neighborhood where you would answer a door with a gun in your hand.
Criminals NEVER 😢bang on a door and yell police, while hiding from view?
The apartment had no windows in the front for the airman to verify who was at the door.
It was a nosy Karen that went around listening to her neighbors doors. She couldn't figure out which apartment the commotion was coming from. She led the police to the wrong apartment. Obviously is wasn't a good neighborhood or this young man was being harassed by his Ken and Karen neighbors.
You almost there with your assessment
It’s even deeper
The department of justice does need to get involved. Not just for this incident because this department has been making the news for all the wrong reasons. Personally, I don't trust that chief. He is the reason this department is an absolute dumpster fire 🔥

It really does. Stranger things have happened
I love how the expert didn't acknowledge that to cop knocked without announcing himself then hid on the sid for over 30 seconds
He found out his enemy is not over seas

@@DortonFarbhe committed no crime. Not an offender
@heightsofsagarmatha Liar. Obviously you have zero professional training, knowledge, experience, or skills in this area. Attempted Murder is a crime.
@DortonFarb holding a pistol downwards inside his home is legal (castle doctrine + 2nd amendment)
@heightsofsagarmatha Self-defense is legal too, dummy.
And the Castle Doctrine is not applicable to the fact pattern of this case.
We,agree thank you for great leadership moving forward 💪🇺🇸
The weapon was at his side; pointed downward... No reasonable person would have acted so irrationally. Either band guns or hire more compitant personnell. The manager indicated questionable information' third party source info; unsure which apt...
Initially, when the officer first knocked, he didn't announce himself; he simply knocked and moved out of view of the peephole. Roger likely went to retrieve his nearby gun upon hearing the knock and asking, "Who is it?" However, the officer remained silent and moved aside. Roger probably informed his girlfriend that someone was at the door. This behavior resembled the tactics of home invaders who knock and then hide from the peephole, ready to rush in if the door is opened.
During the second knock, the officer identified himself, prompting Roger to cautiously open the door with his gun in hand. Roger likely didn't understand why a police officer was at his door since he was merely conversing with his girlfriend. This explains his relaxed demeanor despite holding a firearm when he opened the door.
Regarding the officer, this is a case of murder due to failure to follow protocol. The officer should take responsibility for his actions and show honor. This case is straightforward given these circumstances. This incident underscores the importance of privacy and minding one's own business.
JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL !!!
This is a pure damn shame this whole situation..
Why the hell would u knock and move. U aint been sent to breach the building. Stand at the door.
Police are trained to not stand in front of the door when going to a residence to prevent ambushes, and gives police an advantage if a threat were to appear at the door.
They're afraid of people blasting the doors with a shotgun or rifle.
I believe the young man was on the phone when the cop knocked. He may have heard the banging and loud talking of the cop, but it may have sounded like background noise to him. Either way, the cop opened fire because he saw a gun in the young man's hand, NOT because he was threatened. Cops always panic when a black man is in possession of a firearm; even if legally possessed.
You are blinded by your hateful racism and bigotry. Stop trying to blame all of your own personal failures in life on the skin color of other people.

@@ICU-Witness Lowering law enforcement hiring standards in the pursuit of diversity goals is ALWAYS a bad idea- just ask Tyre Nichols.
This cop is stupid & clueless about the laws he thinks he's enforcing. He violated the victims FL 2nd amendment law. You have the right to carry your firearm & no one should be scared to wanna shoot you because of it especially if you're not committing a crime.
Because he didn't hear the word police are he didn't see him through the peep hole. He never commanded that airman to drop his weapon until after he shot him. And they will do anything to protect one of their. This makes that a corrupt system. They shouldn't be protecting that officer.
Bingo
Liar. For starters, THERE WAS NO PEEP HOLE.
Frankly, I don't believe that the airman knew that it was a cop behind the door, because he could not see him through the peep hole, as the officer stayed off to the side of it. This is all based upon how the airman appeared to react when he saw the officer. It was surprise and made a gesture for the officer to wait or stop or don't shoot, I'm not a threat.
He never raised his gun at all and the look on his face was that of shock and surprise, not a look that says I'm going to shoot you.
Come on Captain, so you are saying no criminal could ever lie and yell "police" to get someone to open the door? Apparently in Los Angeles criminals are known for their honesty and good sportsmanship!
He just saw a black guy with a gun and began shooting, I see a black guy with a gun all the time and I don’t shoot immediately
I would they're the threat
@@TJsPLifestyle All or some which is it. The home Defender could say the same about white supremacy. Are black people in general the threat that you're talking about if so who's hurt you. This man was a active service man protecting his country. Yeah I guess a twisted mind would consider him a threat.
So when the officer was moving side to side on each side of the door. That officer was ready to use his weapon.

Okaloosa County, you are a 3 mile wide town that thinks you are as big as Miami-Dade county.
And you incarcerate almost about your 20% of your population and I been watching for years.....over 15 years I have read what was happening around me.
Thank God I don't live there anymore.
Sorry Sheriff but things got to change.
Because the buck stops with you.
Your former citizen.
Now we know why EVERY la cop that was investigated for excessive force was found to have done no wrong.. this guy!
Appeared my ass...we all saw the damn weapon pointing down.
YOU ARE THE POLICE!!! WHY ARE YOU HIDING? IF that cop would of went to that AIRMAN door with respect, & NOT hiding on the side of the door so the AIRMAN could NOT see you through the peep hole! ANYONE can knock on your door & yell out POLICE & they could be ROBBERS! That cop didn't have enough information about an actual crime being committed before he knock on the AIRMAN door! JUST because "KAREN" told him two weeks ago she heard some voices. does NOT mean a CRIME had been committed! NOTHING "KAREN" told that cop on that seen was CRIMINAL, the cop just assume "KAREN" was telling the TRUTH. & the AIRMAN just arrived home 30min before the cop got there! SO "KAREN" & the other 'KAREN" who supposedly made the first phone call,, to "KREN"#1, SAID that " THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S GETTING OUT OF HAND"! SO KAREN #1 gave the cop a LIE that her and KAREN#2 made up! THEY waited until that AIRMAN return to his home & called the POLICE with a made up story to HARASS THEY BLACK NEIGHBOR!!! THE STORY IS MADE UP!!!!
Only racist lying Kareniquas say that.
For starters, THERE WAS NO PEEP HOLE, KARENIQUA.
Senseless
That cop better get charged and put in prison
You forget the first time he knocked. He did not announce his self number two when he knocked. He stood back away from the door, so how did he know who he was? He peeped out the people and didn’t see nobody.
Cops are trained to not stand in front of doors..especially in a posible domestic situation..however i believe the cop panicked. Its easy to say what you would do just watching a video..being there is another scenario...
@@gregmccarter2176 like I said he knocked and he did not identify his self would is Nike at the door and then go hide. I can see if he announced his self the first time but he did not.
@@tommyguyton6524he identified himself twice and loudly before the door was open at least get your facts right.
@@dozersdadyGet your facts right! The KKKop should of told him to put the gun down first, not shoot him not giving him a chance but told him to put the gun down after he shot him multiple times. The airman had the gun pointed downward withe other hand up. Clearly the airman didn't know he was a KKKop thinking is was a invader..
The officer asked the manager which apt? she said.. Im not sure. He asked other questions and then asked again.. which apt? She then told him the Airmans apt number. The management should be sued for negligence. Giving wrong info costed that mans life.
The cop is guilty of manslaughter for sure. He went to the wrong address and then escalates the situation by banging and yelling thru this poor guy's door. It was reasonable for him to believe a person was trying to bust in his apartment and to answer the door with a gun. Outrageous.
Liar. Obviously you have zero professional training, knowledge, experience, or skills in this area, AND you have no idea what actually happened.
The deputy was at the right apartment, and nobody tried to "bust through the door with a gun".
It's ironic how this only happens to 🖤🖤 folks. We all know had he not been who he was he would still be alive. Six shots was over kill.
They are able to capture them, even after they shoot their weapons.
Johnny Hurley and Ryan Whitaker prove that statement false.
Yep
That deputy is going to say he saw a gun and feared for his life, but you know what, that's all he saw was a gun, and if he saw the gun he saw it wasn't pointing at him, he saw it was at his side, and if he saw all that he saw and knew that airman wasn't a threat, with all that he saw-a gun- a gun pointing down and not at him, his decision was to shoot that airman six times and then tell him to drop his gun.
Lol. Obviously you have zero professional training, knowledge, experience, or skills in this area.
Please give blacks our reparations so we can leave this place
No one is holding you in America. Get a job or two and save up to move.
@@personalfreedom4459 where do you suggest I move with no language no culture no religion do you suggest Africa and thanks to your ppl I don't speak the language I wish everyday you ppl went to Asia instead of Africa and then black ppl wouldn't be in this mess
@@personalfreedom4459How you figured she don't have a job already?! This is not your country!
@@user-sy6ot9lt3w who's country is it? The Canadians, the Germans, the Italians??? I suggested getting additional income because if you are unhappy somewhere you should leave. That person clearly doesn't realize she can leave without the white man's help. I am very curious as to where she would go.
THE POLICE OFFICER SHOWED UP FOR ACTION! He didn't investigate if the information he received. was accurate. Or if the information was actually a crime. Once the officer arrived at the AIRMAN door he did NOT hear anything that would of COLLABORATED "KAREN" story! Actually the COP heard NOHING coming from the AIRMAN apartment, SO there for, his INVESTIGATION was over then, BECAUSE he didn't have the PROBABLE CAUSE to knock on the AIRMAN door! WHEN that officer went to the AIRMAN door he did NOT HEAR ANYTHING REMOTLY LIKE THE TWO 'KAREN'S" say was going on at his Apartment! SO he should of NEVER KNOCK ON HIS DOOR!
You drunk, or what?
Obviously you have zero professional training, knowledge, experience, or skills in this area.
Cops don't need "probable cause" to knock on someone's door, dummy.
Amd when an offender pulls a gun on a cop like that, no additional "investigation" is required before the cop legally defends himself.
He knocked then MOVED OUT OF SIGHT!!!
He needs to go to jail
Exactly. To me the victim tried to explain himself in his own home. He raised his left hand and that's an indication of he tried to ask question or explain himself to the policeman. He had a gun in his right hand but the gun was lowered and pointed to the ground.
You don't have to obstruct the view of the peep hole, all you have to do is step out of the line of sight. The officer clearly steps to the side of the peep hole. This tactic has been used many times to carry out home invasions , in fact I would be surprised if the officer didn't know that. If you get a knock at your door and can't see who it is , you grab your gun...The deputy should have stood in front of the door so he could be seen.
Standing in front of a door when announcing you are police could get an officer killed and is not protocol.
WHERE IS THE NRA ON THIS??? FORGOT VICTIM IS BLACK
Tell that to Ryan Whitaker, a white man who was shot by the police doing the same thing this man did.
The NRA raises money by demonizing supposedly liberal DAs in red states. They're not raising money by advocating for this young man or Robert Dotson either.
you can tell by the airmen reaction when he opened the door, he didn't expect to see a gun pointed at him , the officer just reacted too quiclkly when he saw the gun, the gun was obviously pointed down in a non threatening manner and the airmans other hand was up as if to say dont shoot im no threat.
Sure, ask a cop of a cop did anything wrong! ROFL! That's like asking Scooby Doo if his buddy smoke's! 😂
If someone yells sheriffs office and hides from the peephole I’m going to assume it’s someone trying to rob me.

Atatiana Jefferson was murdered in her own home....7 year old Aiyana Jones was murdered while sleeping....Breyanna Taylor was murdered in her own home while sleeping. Sickening.
