this is not, nor will it ever be the first or last time cops taser someone who is on a ledge, cliff, balcony, possibly not all there mentally etc... tasering is supposed to occur when the officer is under attack or threatened, fear of life or death stuff.
Murderer or not, the cops werent in fear of their life at all thats for sure, they tasered him for no real reason, media will just say "he jumped" And thats that.
However, if he killed someone in my family I wouldnt care, but thats not really how the system works. So how the cops handle the situation then becomes discussion, but only amongst civilians, media doesnt care nor do the higher up cops. The bad guy = dead is happy ending.
Whether or not the cops should taser people in these instances, = nothing more than debate amongst the third class.
