      Absolutely. . . I agree, that's what most home invasion robbers say, they yell "open the door this is the police".
      Which is why people are taught to verify first!
      This guy covered up the peep hole. . .
      There is just something fishy about the whole incident.
      The police are taught to arrive at the address given, then stand there awhile to verify if there is an actual disturbance. If you don't hear anything, you call dispatch to verify that your at the actual "address" or the property manager who called.

      I didn’t see anything in the video indicating that the Sheriff was lying about ANYTHING. What did he lie about? It may not have been a “good shoot,” but that’s a different discussion. One could also assert that the deceased probably shouldn’t have opened the door with a gun in his hand, even if he had a right to do so. For what reason would he do that?

      ​@cablebrain9691 perhaps a lapse of judgement because he was afraid. What I noticed about the body cam footage though is the sheriff didn't identify himself the first knock and stepped out of view from the doors peephole multiple times. I can see why the airman would be confused as to what's going on. Regardless of whether or not the Sheriff followed protocol or not he killed an innocent man, a veteran, a mother's son. Not a criminal. And there should be proper repercussions for that.

      He DID move away from the peep-hole, but he did NOT cover it up, as someone had stated. This is for the officer’s safety, I imagine, so that he couldn’t potentially be shot through the door. And as I had mentioned, the airman could have verified the officer’s identity in other ways, but he didn’t attempt to do that. Instead, he opened the door while holding a pistol in his hand, AFTER the officer had identified himself.

    Just because someone knocks on your door and says they are the sheriff doesn't mean they are. You are legally within your right to open the door with a gun in your hand in your own apartment. However it's not legal for a cop, who doesn't have a gun pointed at him, to not say put the gun down and unload 6 shots into an innocent man. You don't shoot until he's on the ground and then tell him to put the gun down.

How was it OK for a police officer to enter into the wrong home and shoot a lawfully armed person. You got a square that with most Americans, how can you go into the wrong home and then say my life was in danger you’re in the wrong spot you made a mistake and when you make a mistake and go into the wrong can’t someone say well this mistake led to that mistake. Therefore, you are liable for what occurred. Not just civil liability criminal liability.

    I just saw the body cam video and the officer goes to the door by himself, knocks on the door WITHOUT announcing himself and then immediately moves to the side of the door where he would be out of view of the peephole. If I heard loud banging on my door, looked out the peephole and saw no one there, I would be suspicious and I definitely wouldn't open my door. The officer waited silently about 30 seconds and even though he was expecting another officer to arrive, it looks like he is still alone. He knocks on the door again and this time announces himself and knocks again and announces a 2nd time all within about 12 seconds. The door opens within 15 seconds of the officer announcing himself for the first time. You can see that the victim has his gun at his side pointed down to the ground when the video ends.
    Where is the threat to the officer's life? If the officer thought the situation was dangerous, why didn't he wait for the back-up he was expecting? Why didn't he announce himself the first time he knocked and why did he stand where he would obviously not be visible through the peephole? It seems reasonable to assume that the victim got his gun after the first knock when the officer failed to announce himself and then waited silently out of view for 30 seconds, and the victim was still holding his gun in the 15 seconds between the officer announcing himself and the victim opening the door. It isn't illegal to answer your door in Florida while holding a gun pointed down at the ground. He could've taken the time to set the gun down somewhere away from the door, but he wasn't obligated to; it seems he chose to answer the door quickly instead.

      They are taught to stand to the side because if you stand in front of the door that is called the fatal funnel. It is easy for a person to shoot through the door. The other reason he stands to the side is to listen to what's taking place in the apartment i.e. if there are any raised voices regarding domestic violence. Officer Tatum did an analysis of the shooting. Check it out!

      A woman at the complex made the call and told the police that there had been previous disturbances coming from the residence. It was the correct address, but it was an unnecessary call. Police have no responsibility to respond to calls where there is no proof of danger or a crime. No one inside the home called. The woman was not sure of anything and sent the police there for nothing. She made sure to say that she heard a slap coming from the apartment on another occasion.
      Still, the address was correct.

    There has been many of these types of tragedies in the past couple years. First and foremost make sure your info is correct. If someone says they're not sure of an apartment number don't presume they knew by guessing. A domestic disturbance call is not the same as call for active 'criminal' alert. Cops are trained for situational awareness and being vigilant and calm not panicky. Just imagine a child opening the door with a toy gun in hand.
