    How many gunshots were fired during this presumption of this victim being under the influence?. No tasers deployed no pepper spray no nothing like that it was 100% straight on aliveing this young man. This county is crooked and needs reformant. The officers involved should not be on paid administrative leave due to them not rendering a service as they are receiving beneficial gains. All officers should take a hair follicle test to make sure that they were in the proper mindset operating under the manner of commerce as a public servant. Without prejudice towards me please and thank you this town hates me already for the constitutional accident I'm speaking up against that they violated
