And at the end, After giving his report to the higher ups, the cop who shot him asks his boss if there’s been any update on the condition of Brooks. Found that interesting.
I noticed that too. The supervisor asked if the officer had contacted his wife/family and if he needed anything. What was the officer's primary concern at that point, the man shot. And he didn't refer to him as thug, criminal, or that fucking dude that just shot me with a taser. No, he still treated the man with basic human decently by referring to him as Mr. Brooks.

This exactly was noticable to me as well. Shows professionalism and humanity through and through
It could be out of compassion, good chance I think, but it also could be out of fear for his life and his family's lives if Brooks doesn't make it.
Officers rarely are not upset they had to seriously shoot someone- the fear of living with the person's death at your hands is real....
