"The family intends to file a wrongful death suit, but even if they do not pursue murder charges, District Attorney Larry Krasner may decide to."
That's nice of them, but they weren't improperly trained. Police are trained to use deadly force on a suspect approaching them with a knife, if they're within 21 feet. That guy was only 10 feet away as he was approaching the officers.
How about properly train you kids not to attack police officers with a knife?
