Hit & Run > Are Inhumane Police Tactics Preferable to Murder? - Reason Magazine

Good questions from Mike Riggs:


How did a man who seemed to pose no danger to anyone besides himself end up being killed by the police in his own bathroom?

... there's also evidence -- enough to spark a rigorous MPD Internal Affairs investigation -- that the responding officers didn't make an adequate effort to engage Kerstetter before resorting to lethal force...

If police officers find themselves face to face with a potentially dangerous and mentally unstable citizen, are inhumane methods for restraint preferable to lethal force?
