MT - Officer cleared in fatal shooting. (Video of incident)

[El Vaquero]

"Ravalli County Attorney George Corn asked him why - after he'd just been nearly killed - did he move closer to his assailant."

Attorneys can be such douche bags. It sucks that the officer has to wait over three months before getting totally cleared. That video shows it all. He did great. Glad he got to home that night.

First thing I saw was flashlight in primary hand. I'm glad it worked out. Good shoot.

Just another reason that drinking should be as illegal as pot.

Let's just ban guns instead, right?

Yeah because that's working out so well with pot.

You can't outlaw stupid people.

Your right it was alcohol that caused this, just like it is a guns fault for killing and the pencils fault for misspelling. It was not the persons fault at all

Jessop heard a click.

Davis pulled the trigger and the hammer fell on an empty round.

That is a sound that the officer will never forget.

The officer reacted very well. I am amazed at how quickly and clearly he was able to broadcast the shooting over the radio.

Outstanding outcome. Watching the video, the incident seemed pretty clear cut as a justified shoot. Glad the officer was cleared, but a hearing seems unnescessary.

Two loudest sounds in the world... Click when you want boom, or boom when you wanted click. Or even more scary on the other end of the gun.

As for the findings... I understand the need for due diligence, but that was a pretty clear cut case of a good shoot right there. No need to waste tax payers money in my opinion.

Good Cop, outstanding job.
