The Rollice case is the latest in a series of questionable decisions involving police shootings where lower courts examine officer pre-shooting conduct
Court decisions have held it is reasonable for officers to use deadly force to end a pursuit if a suspect engages in dangerous prior conduct or there is objective evidence of the driver’s intent to harm officers
"By shooting an incapacitated, injured person who was not moving, and who was laying on his knife, the police officers crossed a ‘bright line’ and can be held liable."
