In police-involved shootings, facts are victims

Written By kolimtiga on Kamis, 29 Januari 2015 | 22.26

To the editor: Your editorial is balanced and thoughtful. Not every officer-involved shooting is justified, nor is every one unjustified. ("How to ensure impartial investigations of officers' deadly force?," Editorial, Jan. 26)

As a lawyer, I appreciate your recognition that even the most emotionally charged controversies may come down to dry facts. We need to get past the knee-jerk reactions of both the left and the right.

If we allow predetermined and ultimately arbitrary ideological categories to control the outcome of a matter as delicate as a police shooting, we will have deprived ourselves of the sober and deliberative due process to which a potential claimant or a potential defendant is entitled.

We must never allow either our emotions or our location on the political spectrum to override impartial investigations and the ultimate rule of law.
