And it was the cop whose rights were violated, not the guy who they were shooting at for no reason.

No, they just gave that guy an attempted murder charge he has to fight off.

AND they fired the cop who was shot because she apparently forgot to turn on her body cam before going in. The shooting cop experienced no professional repercussions, but the other two people involved did. It’s really special.
