    a person in his care and custody

    hahaha

    they would be showing this video at the academy as a demonstration of a failure to kill the guy in the back seat, therefore allowing all this to look ridiculous. to other cops, this is a grim tale of not sufficiently escalating the reality of the situation to match their internal narrative, and with this cop’s public humiliation, a demonstration of how vital it is that there be a corpse if you ever act rashly for some reason.
