I am Stanley's close friend who with his wife have been dealing with his problems with the VA. The VA failed to issue his meds and was dellusional for 3 days. He was trying to go home and thought he was home. He lived in the complex next to the one he was at. His apartment number was1006. He was trying to enter 1116. Not trying to buglarize. He called for his wife prior to returning to what he thought was his apartment. Metro blocked car and was stationary at the time of the shooting. Shift supers said to use beanbag shot which blew out rear passenger window (first shot). ROOKIE officer (22 yrs old) shot real bullets (5-7shots) through front passenger window killing my friend and my brother. Please read the Review Journal article. I by far am not against law enforcement. But there comes a time when actions like this need to be accounted for. There are more facts that will come available where our SYSTEM failed.

@tslennon, Its all fine and dandy until you need them. NEVADA MAC it is pointless to even talk to this ignorant scum, he will never change until he sees it first hand. There will always be cop haters and the cops that fight a uphill battle with those haters. I was once chased by NHP on my bike bake in 2000 (STUPID ME I KNOW, NEVER AGAIN DUE TO MY CAREER I AM IN NOW AND SAFETY) and got away but they came back to the road where we were doing tricks I am still standing I did not get shot. I have been pulled over by Metro about 8 times since 1997 when I moved here and I am still standing. I now have many friends in Metro that I work with (NO I AM NOT A COP, SORRY GUYS TRIED BUT TO MANY POLITICS). You should never place blame without facts no matter what the FU!@ING MEDIA STATES and that goes for both sides but if you just do what they ask you will not have a problem. People can only focus on the bad but look at all the good they have done and until you know what they go through and or deal with don't talk sh!@ cause its real easy talking sh!@ behind a keyboard. So don't base your end thoughts off a video that you can't even see jack sh!@. @tslennon May you find peace in your anger and the wisdom to see the truth. That goes for everybody that wants to not get the facts first b4 you state your ignorance.

So now (according to tslennon and ZMARH1) I'm a stinky loser that was bullied in high school... LOL! In the words of the GEICO cave man: "you hurt me with your words" hahaha! And you don't even know me. That's okay though, even though I don't know you guys I will save you when you're getting robbed, raped or pillaged.

You cannot see what happened at all from this video. When the camera person heard what sounded like a firecracker, he or she lost all sight of the car and metro officers.

We have been here for twentyone years and metro is a threat to every citizen. When the check pool gets high enough, someone must die. Just think of the money and paid leave. And let us not forget that they are refusing to take part in the inquest system as per their union thugs. All we have to do is charge them with murder and they will spill their guts rather then go to prison. The sheriff should do time for creating this situation that allows cops to kill at will. We have told friends and relatives to stay away because a traffic infraction will likely cost you your life. Send them to prison and solve this problem. A badge should not be a license to kill.

In the video it looks like the car is stationary but who knows what really happened. This could cost Metro millions of dollars just from looking at the video alone

Nevada Mac, You must believe it is ok to kill unarmed and unthreatening people because you can. You stink you rotten loser.

Time for tslennon to join the force too instead of passing judgement from the other side of the fence. You're a spectator making statements about a game you've never played. Typical.
