Aim? I disagree if you look closer at the video Brooks fired right after he turned his arm and shot the taser way to the right of Rolfe, he wasn't even close. He was sloppily trying to get away from them seems to me, and not attempting to murder 2 police officers.. Is that what you are saying? They did seem to go easy on him at first, much easier than I've seen on similar episodes of Cops from the past, especially the first officer before Rofle came for "backup".
The being aware of the country's situation goes for both of them, Brooks was on probation right? What kind of maniac who has been through the system falls back asleep again after a cop wakes you up behind the wheel? Doesn't make any sense, he was odd and goofy the whole time, didn't really seem that wasted. It almost seems like he planned this whole thing, so that his baby momma and daughters would have some kind of a future from all the attention they will get - especially right now in "these times"
My buddy his dad got hit hard by the 2007 housing recession, he purposely overdosed on xanax and other meds, but made it look like an accident so his wife would get the insurance money and be taken care of for the rest of her life. Just saying stranger things have happened
Yes, aim, as in he pointed the weapon in the direction of the officers with the intent of hitting them with it. He was drunk, so not very effective, but the intent was there.
I'm not saying he was attempting to murder them, I'm saying that it could have easily escalated to that point. He wasn't exactly in a clear state of mind. If he would tase a police officer, how do you know he would not go further? We know he did not have the option in this case, but had he successfully incapacitated the officer, he would have significantly tilted the odds in his favor. Desperate people do desperate things.
I think he was acting as nice as possible because he was hoping to get off, like being allowed to walk home or something. He only snapped once the cuffs came out and he realized it wasn't going to work. I don't know if I agree about the last point. He couldn't remember which street he was on, or whether he was even in Atlanta. He couldn't keep his story straight about which drinks he had or how many. And during that sobriety test, he did not realize that he only took four or five steps rather than the nine the officer asked for. That's pretty damn drunk lol, although he handled himself fairly well in spite of it imo.
