I want to see the video of two cops frisking someone twice and missing the gun he was concealing.

Well, there you are

/how could anyone ever question that evidence?

Sounds legit.

If he did shoot himself (no matter how awkward) it should be easy to prove. There should be powder burns and residuals from firing the gun on his hands and back.

Ok, either these cops are the dumbest police to ever walk the earth because they couldnt come up with a better excuse why they executed a criminal, or they are the dumbest police to ever walk the earth because they allowed a criminal to shoot himself while cuffed missing the gun after three pat downs.

Either way, they are the dumbest police to ever walk this earth

cman: Either way, they are the dumbest police to ever walk this earth

I don't think you're giving enough credit to your run-of-the-mill cops.

Being a police is hard. Let's give them a pass.

I know that the dude had to have been a hell of a lot more flexible than I am. The only way I'm shooting myself in the head with my hands cuffed behind my back is if the bullet goes through my back or shoulder.

It is not the job of police to be judge, jury and executioner.

ShawnDoc: If he did shoot himself (no matter how awkward) it should be easy to prove. There should be powder burns and residuals from firing the gun on his hands and back.

He would have powder burns from a close execution style shot and the putting the gun in his hand and firing into the ground would put residuals on his hands.

We need a "Fark the Police" tag

Rrriiiiiiiiiiiggghhhht.

Wow, one would think that someone so talented could have managed to not end up in the back of a police cruiser.

Well, let me be the first to do some scientific research.

*cuffs hands behind back*
*picks up gun*

See, there's no way ... *BLAM* *thud*

Accidentally, brutally cut his own head off while shaving.

It would be fun to get into an argument with someone who insist it could be done, get them to put on handcuffs, hand them an Airsoft gun, and then walk away.

Yates says Carter was frisked once and put in the back of the patrol car. Carter could have stashed the gun, which would explain how officers missed the gun the second time he was frisked.

I remember the story being, he was frisked twice then put in the car. now, they frisked him, put him in the car, and frisked him again (i guess in the car, or did they take him out of the car?)... then he JFK'd himself?

you know, this is one of those instances where, if criminal law had a doctrine of res ipsa loquitur, it would probably apply.

Heroes, each and every one of them.

No, no, you've got it all wrong. We didn't kill the guy. We're just grossly incompetent!

Oh, well, in that case, keep up the good work.

Did the video show them unable to find the gun after it was discharged?

So they are still admitting criminal negligence on their part. If they "frisked" him twice and found nothing they weren't trained properly. That endangers them, the public, and the suspect.

The police are working on another theory as to how a man with his hands cuffed behind his back can shoot himself in the head:

Have you ever made a mistake at work? Police officers are no different.

All of you questioning the police just hate America and the children. and you love the terrorists.

The video

Vincent: Oh man, I shot Chavis in the face.
Jules: Why the fark did you do that!
Vincent: Well, I didn't mean to do it, it was an accident!
Jules: Oh man I've seen some crazy ass shiat in my time...
Vincent: Chill out, man. I told you it was an accident. You probably went over a bump or something...

I did that once... afterwards my girlfriend said I was completely nuts.

Jonesboro Police Chief Michael Yates said Tuesday that officers are still investigating how 21-year-old Chavis Carter could have concealed a gun even though he'd been frisked twice.

Should have watched the Snopes.com "Last Interrogation" video (very VERY NSFW or your lunch)

In my line of work, insurance, if we make a mistake like missing a pedestrian being hit on a police report... we can face jail time. The seriousness of their mistake is way beyond simply making a mistake at work. Plus, they originally said two officers frisked him. Again, not a simple "mistake". Either they didn't frisk him (in truth) or they killed him (still possible). Either way it should cost them their jobs at the minimum.

Exactly. Everybody is jumping on the cops, but the short headline "handcuffed man shoot himself in back of patrol car" doesn't give all the details. Don't they have dashcam footage of the cops standing in front of the car when it happens? I believe they have witnesses as well. A freak accident, but let's go after these cops anyway, because two states over there were some corrupt cops.

In 1994 a Houston police officer was shot by a handcuffed prisoner in the back seat. The gun was missed by all who searched him. He was able to wriggle his way around and get himself into a position to shoot him in the head. Of course, he didn't stop to think what would happen when he killed the driver of a moving car (it crashed into a house), and how to get out of the locked back seat.

Police do miss things when searching suspects... just ask these guys:

Snopes

This suspect shot the pursuing officer and made into the interrogation room with a loaded weapon in the front of his pants.

You're bound to lose control
When the Rubberband shoots himself in the head in the back of your caaaar!

Dredd never executed anyone.

Capital punishment was banned in the Megacities (of course banishment to the wastelands pretty much meant a very short life span).

Wasn't it allowed in Texas City? (my memory could be off)

People are going to make mistakes, bottom line. It's nice to know though that you think it's ok for you to fark up at work because nobody's life is on the line.

jst3p: Confoundit: The video

Looks plausible actually.

Only if the gun was so easily positioned. If it was missed after a pat-down, and then the gun was "stashed" so it would be missed upon a second investigation, would it be right there so easily placed to be grabbed?

The video also assumes similarities in flexibility and the like.

jst3p: Confoundit: The video

Looks plausible actually.

If the gun was stashed in plain site on the seat where he was sitting. They should have stashed the gun in the car someplace else where it would have been missed and see if he could retrieve it from there.

Of course, if these cops couldn't find the gun after two searches, then they probably are blind anyways.

Is that what you got out of my post or is that your attemp at a rebuttal?

Either way, I weep for humanity.

Plausible they did miss it depending on where he had it stashed - it's a small pistol, 5.4" overall length, only 22 oz with no rounds



But don't let that stop you from believing in the the vast Po-leece conspiracy to kill black people for sharts & giggles
