"An unarmed black man fatally shot by a white former patrolman in South Carolina in April had used cocaine and alcohol in his system when the police officer said he wrested control of his stun gun and pointed it at him, court documents filed on Tuesday show.
Michael Slager, 33, was fired from his patrolman job in North Charleston after being charged with murder in the April 4 death of Walter Scott, 50.
Video of the shooting captured by a bystander on his cellphone was widely distributed, and the death reignited a public outcry over police treatment of blacks and other minorities.
Defense attorney Andy Savage said he would ask a judge to set Slager free on bond.
“It wasn’t just a cold-blooded shooting of a guy in the back and (authorities) knew that,” the defense attorney told the Post and Courier newspaper on Tuesday."
