I'd be shocked if anyone disagreed with you on the first two points.
As for the last one, it's a tough job that relies on people to make very quick decisions in the heat of the moment. This officer, in my opinion, proved he can't be counted on to make those decisions. This situation was likely created by the mere fact of him passing the recruitment process, or a failure in his training.
It's clear he should no longer be a police officer. But firing him or putting him in jail does nothing to solve the problem that led to this man losing his life unnecessarily.
