Sterling had “ just cooperated”.<br />
This is a very simply way to view<br />
this case, but it also true.<br />
However, police operate in a<br />
world where suspects do not<br />
always cooperate and there are<br />
policies and equipment designed<br />
to assist and guide police<br />
in these scenarios. The Police<br />
Sergeant on scene has a primary<br />
duty to ensure that these<br />
protocols are followed. That did<br />
not happen in this case and the<br />
result was that a young man was<br />
killed and a police supervisor<br />
will likely forfeit his career and<br />
possibly his freedom.<br />
Since the blame for the tragic<br />
results should be split between<br />
Mr. Sterling and the Sergeant -<br />
the best we can hope for is that<br />
the Sergeant is prosecuted and<br />
sentenced like Kim Potter - and<br />
not like Derek Chauvin.<br />
Fleeing from police officers<br />
is incredibly dangerous and<br />
greatly increases the odds that a<br />
suspect will be harmed. Police<br />
officers cannot force suspects to<br />
be reasonable or decent. So, for<br />
those who choose this dangerous<br />
and selfish path and accept<br />
the risk - have it your way.<br />
