Default Re: Overkill on a Mozambique drill

The only further information I have to offer is that I was taught this about 1990, in a Texas criminal justice school by a former FBI agent who had served all over the US. It came up in the context of a film called "The Inner Cop" or something similar, about handling the stresses of police work, and was assembled from recreations of situations filmed by the participating officers from several places around the US. The "cuff the dead guy" segment was IIRC about a ski masked warehouse burglar who tries to cover his getaway with a gun when officers arrive. They returned fire, and when the shooter falls, the officer in charge runs over to cuff him, then rolls him over to check his vitals. He pulls off the guy's mask to reveal a very young face and is vocally upset that he's just shot a kid.
