Tensing’s officers may have tried to aid his cover-up of the shooting, noting their corroboration of his story in their official reports of the incident.

I hope his colleagues who lied to cover it up get charged too.

The depressing this is that it's not like there's some sudden uptick in police violence; it's just that it's now getting media coverage.
