Bodycam & Dashcam Footage of Bennie Edwards Shooting

1. YouTube hitting me with the triple warning again

2. The shots fired when he ran toward the officer: justified.

   The shots fired while he was running away and had his back toward them: definitely not justified.

   It’s fucked up they shot the man as he was running away. Everything else was handled accordingly.

3. The officer did everything to avoid a lethal confrontation BLM and Antifa crawl back into the pit from whence thou came.

4. "OMG…he was RUnNiNg AwAy! RaCiuSt CoPs!" – Typical liberal

5. Is that first cop okay? Was he just having a panic attack or did he get shot in the cross fire?

6. Lol

7. Good Shoot. Charge wont stick.

8. Why do they make it so hard for cops not to kill them.

9. Crazy hobo's like these are a dime a dozen in my country. but unlike the police over at america, the police here don't give two shits. so the general public just have to get the fuck out of the vicinity before they get stabbed and robbed. in those orders.

10. Lmao. Has to put a piece of fucking cloth on his face before the entire situation sheeeeeesh
    Don’t worry, it’s bullet and stabproof lol

11. There is a lot of racial tension right now….nobody disputes that. This video has to do with mental illness in my opinion….a normal "citizen" would not charge the police with a knife. Non lethal force was tried and obviously didn't work.

12. I can't even believe they charged this officer with manslaughter. The guy was homeless where were his "heartbroken" family before this happened?

13. Who are these screaming people coming out of nowhere?

14. Respect to the officers for being there to deal with this crap. 💙

15. Good job

16. Was it really necessary to shoot him 3 more times in the back? If a civilian did that we would be in jail.

17. incredible that they cannot disarm a man with a knife without murdering him

18. Every time I see a criminal shot I chuckle lol

19. VAY KİRALIKK KÖPEKLERR ADAMI ÖLDÜRDÜLERR

20. How the hell was this manslaughter?

21. what's wrong with the cop leg???

22. Don’t you think it’s about time they upgrade those ridiculous tasers?

23. Tennessee v. Garner.

24. So his family doesn't give a shit he's homeless, but when he dies from charging a cop with a knife, it's the cops fault and they try to make millions off their dead homeless father. Only in America

25. Well that's one way to pick up a dime!

26. 3:54 I applaud this officers gun discipline. Took some shots, saw his friendly in the cross fire and lowered his muzzle until his shot was clear again. 👌👏

27. 🤛👴🏿🤜🪦😂😂😂😂⚰🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍🍺👍👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

28. lol ran like a bitch when bullets starting flying.

29. Nothing screams Oklahoma more than a crazy homeless guy with a knife gets shot in a parking lot next to a oil rig

30. That was stupid crossfire

31. was it necessary to do this? he killed a desperate

32. How can anyone even be mad a this cop? Are you crazy? He was literally RUNNING towards him with a knife in hand wtf??

33. why do these cops always resort to guns? use that fucking asp you carry and bop him in the head one time. that old man with a knife aint going to hurt you. i dont get the whole shooting him in the back while hes running away…

34. lol, you can hear the cop gasping for breath after trotting over to the dude. Fuck the police, MCAB, etc.

    How did this situation begin? Maybe it began with the officers talking down to the guy and disrespecting him. Maybe it didn't, and they treated him decently before he became combative. Given my own experience with police, I suspect the former.

    Police need to remember to treat everyone, including suspects, with respect, empathy, and compassion. Just because they have a badge and uniform doesn't give them the right to be discourteous. I bet Edwards would be alive today if the police hadn't treated him insensitively and confrontationally in the beginning.

    I also notice that the guy doesn't give the suspect any time to reconsider his actions between saying "you're getting tazed" and actually tazing the dude.

    It's really too bad they felt like they had to open fire on the guy. If you ask me, the police are the ones who escalated the situation, not the suspect. Law enforcement isn't my field, so don't ask me, but surely there must be a better way.

35. counter-terrorists win

36. had 15 minutes of fame, 20 years ago, noone would care…

37. It's literally like they have to kill them.
    Because if they don't, they'll just end up hurting somebody else….

38. Oogabooga

39. It looks like only the last three shots were unreasonable. This must be the basis for the manslaughter charge against the officer.

40. What on earth happened to the officer's leg? Doesn't seem like he got hit by anyone

41. Anyone for a race card??
    Identity politics at its finest……
    Had the vagrant been white, nobody would've given a toss about him, and that's the truth.

42. where was the help for this guy before he ended up dead. people want to blame the cop ok whatever but where is the assistance he needed before he ended up dead. people cry foul after the fact but do nothing to get that guy off the street.

43. Good job
