Grand Rapids Mi Shooting

[Mermaid]

FACT: The officer shot the man in the back of the head. The officer had no reason to pull out his gun and kill the man as his life was not in danger.

The whole premise of this OP is hung up on semantics.

As the difference between execution (murder 1) and manslaughter is 7 years or life in prison - I' d say it' s more than a matter of semantics.

So you are apparently of the mind that this was manslaughter, which is defined as killing without forethought and malice, yet the officer pointed his gun at an unarmed man who was moving AWAY from him and popped a cap in his head. 

I do not see this the same way you do, that is clear.
