I attended a trial a few weeks ago of a guy that stabbed his elderly mother to death and wounded his two year old niece.
A very large Asian guy with obvious mental health issues, the VPD cops that attended had every reason to shoot the guy, he was in the hall of the apartment drenched in blood, there were two bodies on the floor and he was threatening the cops.
When the taser didn't work the senior officer disarmed the guy by using his nightstick, I think it's no coincidence that the cop had spent ten years working as a cop in Gallowshields in the north of England, I found it funny that when asked if he used his nightstick much his reply was 'not much these days, used it all the time back in the U.K.'.
