D- shoots and kills five

He had a case of misuse of a firearm with the IPOA.
So, why was he allowed to handle a firearm before the case was concluded? That's almost criminal negligence by his superiors. I won't be surprised if the concerned officers, the police force and the government are slapped with a lawsuit.

They won't, in Law you are innocent until proven guilty, the matter was under investigation.

That's why they slap you with civil lawsuit. They will say you owed them care. How can you defend a case where someone says your negligence caused them loss.

Im not saying the cop's bosses will get a criminal prosecution. But that's fair game for a civil suit for damages.
