YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCriminal Attorney & Law Enforcement Analyst Philip Holloway discusses police use of deadly force in the case of a naked man who was killed by a police officer responding to a 911 call about the man's behavior. The Supreme Court tells us that all police use of force incidents must be objectively reasonable. Reasonableness is not to be determined in hindsight but from the perspective of the officer on scene making allowanced for the fact that the responding officer typically has very little time to make the decision to use force and if so, what degree of force to use. (Graham v. Conner). The fact that the deceased was not armed is but one factor to be considered in the totality of the circumstances. Investigators will likely consider that many police officers have been killed after having their own weapons taken from them. Ultimately, investigators and likely the courts will decide this ultimate questiondid the officer act reasonably under the totality of the circumstances? Twitter@PhilHollowayEsq
