Thread: Why frontline cops should be armed

Prior to him shooting Wallace, he was attacking a Police car that a female cop was in. That's why he was shot. That's what I recall anyway.

I think the family is still trying to have the cop charged.

Steven Anderson was the guy who killed his family and spent time in a mental hospital and was released this year.

Yep wrong Steven. I believe there were three police that night, and the female was basically locked in the car.

It's ironic that his family are pushing for Mr Abbott to be convicted, seeing as they called police in the first place due to his behaviour

Yeah, I can understand the shooting, but it's not like you call the police expecting them to shoot your son.
