Albuquergue PD has another fatal shooting by police while plans for reform are discussed.
In less than 2 weeks following the US DOJ's findings that Albuquerque PD had been engaging in a “pattern or practice of unconstitutional use of deadly force,” another person was slain by police. The shooting may have been justified, but it is sure to result in additional demonstrations against the PD. The department is formulating remedies. (See related post below).

Stipulating that there was unconstitutional use of force in previous shootings, it would seem irrelevant to a case where the deceased had pointed a firearm at a policeman.
