Well go watch the video. He does not have his arm around her neck at all. His hand is under her arm pulling her backwards. The knife is not against her neck, it is away from her. The mother has no fear she tells the Police to not shoot. She even has her handbag with her.

Unfortunately one of the idiots who responded has a history of simply executing people and passes sentence on this 15 year old kid...death. His second execution in less than 2 years.

If Tanner intended to kill his mother he would have done it long before these moron cops showed up. A fact totally ignored by Metro. They also want you to focus all the attention this knife since that is the ONLY thing which could be consider any justification for this shooting.

This kid was not threatening his mother, he was using her as a shield from moron cops and their stupid decisions. You know this from the mother's account told to these tone deaf mute cops. Instead of backing off as they should have, these morons continued to escalate the situation and then simply killed the kid. They didn't care one wit about anybody but themselves in this.

Absolutely ridiculous is about all you can say about this. This kid was killed by the Medical Mafia and Metro Police, simple as that.

Too many "nice guy" Metro officers operate as if life is like the still frame from this taser gun camera.

"Faceless scumbag with knife trying to kill woman...must shoot scumbag."

I wonder if this idiot cop would have shot the kid if the kid was his own son? Would the officer have shot if the weapon was simply the kids arm? Was frigging mace ever considered? or maybe ending the confrontation by backing off?

I do like the testimony by the sergeant saying using the Taser was not the correct method to use...how utterly convenient to say that now in a case investigating the use of a firearm and a Homicide.

Again, NEVER call Metro for anything unless you want to commit suicide or have a relative or friend killed. Beyond that, always remember you are dealing with stupid people with training barely above potty. They are not properly trained and think they are playing a video game.

Avoid Metro like the plague.
