@John-E and @KStone
First of all, KStone, if *READ CLOSELY*, you'll see that some of those postings come from the website of the SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE.
Second, John-E, let's assume you're correct about them shooting without knowing he committed a crime. You are suggesting that a 12 year sentence is adaquate for what they did?
Ok, tell you what: You find me a similar case that supports a law enforcement officer getting 12 years for shooting at a suspect.
The reason Diane Feinstein had trouble with this case is because she's a former prosecutor. She said herself: The federal statute applied to these two presupposes an underlying crime, which the prosecution did not prove.
Maybe you should read *ALL* of the Committee's findings before you post again...
