In any case where police shoot someone, there should be federal oversight, or some elected third party committee, investigating the incident. Leaving it up to police is a joke. Some type of Internal Affairs committee is not enough. It needs to be completely independent of the LE agency. When a citizen shoots and kills someone, we don't leave it up to him to hire his own investigators, and then make decisions whether or not to press charges based on his conclusions. When a life is lost, transparency is priority.
They are. Charlotte P.D. is NOT investigating the shooting itself. Like in Alabama if any cop is involved in an officer shooting, ABI (Alabama Bureau of Investigations) are automatically called in on the case to make sure there is no b.s. done by the cops or the case/evidence messed with to protect the cop. Not sure what they go by in N.C. though.
