The actual video is more than 4 minutes long and gives us plenty of video to come to our own informed judgement. "Walk a mile in their shoes before you judge". That is something said by someone that has never been in that situation. If that victim/suspect was your family member I am sure your opinion would change. That officer brutally beat a suspect because of his own issues. Hernandez should never have run but Lawlor should not have thought of himself as judge, jury, and executioner.

In the video, which Cossette said he has reviewed repeatedly, Lawlor is seen running up to the suspect after colliding with his white Honda. He then pulls his gun and hits Hernandez about two dozen times. Only a Fucker with no heart does something like this..........................­...............

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

I'll take my chances with justifiable homicide over relying on local corruption that can't shoot for shit any day of the week. What the police better hope for is that it isn't one of their officers performing a warrantless search.

this is terrible, and every1 who comment that it is just is just a pussy who cant protect themselves and relys on cops aka nazis with handguns, FUCK THE POLICE!

@loushus11 To TOP it OFF, the FUGHITIVE had NO hard feelings for the Officer and did not want to press any charges, until the MPD Chief had him approached while he was in prison on other charges and was offered a shorted sentence for his trstimony. SO again I hope your never need PD assistance.

@loushus11 Hope you never need the Police buddy. You have NO idea what the whole story is. This FUGITIVE was wanted on warrants, and was suspected to be armed & dangerous. Moments before this occured, the Officer heard a GUNSHOT and NO repsonse from his partner in another vehcile. What do you think was going through his mind?
