Its worse than that!
‘Pay to Play’ Cop Shot Unarmed Black Man
A rich donor to Tulsa police mistakenly pulled out his gun instead of his Taser and blasted a fleeing suspect.
The volunteer cop in Tulsa, Oklahoma, who killed an unarmed black man was forking over thousands in donations and equipment after becoming an unpaid sheriff’s deputy.
Robert Bates, a 73-year-old insurance executive-turned-deputy, accidentally fired his gun instead of a Taser—costing Eric Harris, 44, his life and adding to the tally of deadly police shootings against minorities nationwide.
On Friday, the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Department police released footage of the April 2 incident, which officials call an accident.
“He shot me! He shot me, man. Oh, my god. I’m losing my breath,” Harris says as he squirms on the ground.
But as Harris lay dying, officers are heard on tape mocking him.
“Fuck your breath,” a cop responds.
