Simply responding with penance for one officer, doesnt address the understanding, cop culture, structural changes, nor social consciousness. ALL those in position of authority in charge of making split second life and death decisions should be properly vetted and trained to take the upmost in care in addressing those destructive societal and pop culture notions that creep into the subconscious, and to properly read social cues and human behavior. We dont get to say, oops, my bad, after killing another human being out of irrational fear and ignorance.
