Re: NY: Police officer accidentally shoots robbery victim
I'd bet that the officer will say that he felt in danger, not knowing, if this was a BG or victim and was justified in shooting first and asking questions later. I'd also bet that Mayor Doomberg retracts his statement that it was an accident and says that, although regrettable, under the circumstances the officer was justified. I don't know what the stats are, but there are lots of folks that are getting no billed or acquitted after shooting someone when they felt threatened.
