The camera was necessary to prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the kid had a gun in his hand. Without the camera, it leaves room for people to say that the officer just said that in his report to justify the killing.
Let me give you another example: if Darren Wilson (the former cop who shot Michael Brown) had a bodycam that could have proven that Michael Brown really did charge him (ran towards Darren Wilson)*, there would have been no case and there would be no such thing as the Ferguson Riots.
*I am not asserting that Brown actually charged Wilson. Only that, in that hypothetical scenario, there would be no riots if it was caught on camera.
Awwww.... Too bad. The race baiters won't be able to get anybody riled-up over this. Course they can always say something like "it was just a toy gun he pulled on the cop. That cop is racist". LMAO.
A thug gets what he asked for. Ooops. Did I just offend anyone who thinks I made a racist statement?
