I guess they figured an idiot cop with terrible aim would play better with the public than a cop that intentionally shot a black man on the ground with his hands up. Considering they cuffed the black guy after he was shot and the officer proclaimed he "didn't know" why he shot the guy, I'd say you'd have to be pretty gullible to buy this story.
Quote:The Florida police officer who shot and wounded an autistic man’s caretaker earlier this week was aiming at the patient, who he felt was a threat, when he accidentally missed and shot the wrong person, a police union chief said Thursday.
