Sadly, I reference that case - Stamps v. Town of Framingham - every time I teach an AR class.

FWIW, the judges concluded that his finger was on the trigger. I still strongly suspect that the trigger caught on his SWAT kit.

I was going through some file at work today and found the experts (a Steve Ijames) report about this incident. Feel free to hit me up via IM if you’re interested in a copy.

As there is no statute of limitations on murder, any prosecutor could indict any living police officer who killed in the line of duty.

Kind of like trying those 99 year old Nazi camp guards.

That is fucking AWESOME!

I wonder if I would submit to arrest?

Perhaps I might submit at the prosecutor's house.

This is why Presidential and Gubernatorial pardons need to exist with very, very few limitations.
The pardon is a check against blatant miscarriages of justice.

The pardon exists to right wrongs. Yes we need it. Just like we need thinking juries and thinking grand juries. However if I remember correctly there was a thread within the last year where many members were down (opposed) to blanket pardons.
