95. "Police are not judge and jury."
Which is why they are not supposed to be judging that the death penalty is the proper sentence. Do you not even see the dichotomy of your own words? You are saying that they are not judge and jury while advocating that they should, in fact, take matters into their own hands. In addition, they would only know what he was arrested for if they knew for sure who he was. Did they establish that first? Or did they only find out who he was after they shot him and got identification on him?

No one is saying they should have done nothing. But they could have subdued him in other ways than to kill him.
