Just read it with a bad Italian accent.

Can’t have that. Wouldn’t do at all.

The rationale, at least in part, is that people with high IQs get bored and quit and the department loses out on the money they invested in training.

And they’re different lengths to make up the small differences in episode length.

I dunno. Brandishing is a misdemeanor in CA and it doesn’t sound like there was any probable cause to believe that the guy posed a significant threat of death or serious bodily harm to the officer or others.

Seems like shooting someone in the back as they run away while discarding their weapon is questionable at best.

At least they don’t run constantly?
