Episode notes
Legal Focus On Officer's Reasonable Perception
- The legal question is whether the officer reasonably perceived an imminent deadly threat, not the driver's secret intent.
- Ben Shapiro argues the objective perception of danger makes the shooting legally defensible.
Video Angles Show Car Movement And Shots
- Multiple camera angles show the car pulling forward and an officer firing through the windshield.
- Slow motion suggests the front-left wheel initially pointed toward the officer before turning away.
Avoid Charged Claims Until Investigation Ends
- Avoid reactionary, charged language when discussing the incident because it fuels violence and mistrust.
- Ben Shapiro urges letting the investigation proceed and following the tape rather than inflaming rhetoric.
