" The  US Supreme Court created a standard for authorizing deadly force in the  case Tennessee v. Garner.  This standard basically states that the  officer must have cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant  threat of death or injury to the officer or to people nearby.  This  standard was called Objective Reasonableness. it also makes the officer not able  to be second guessed.  All they have to say is that they felt  their/someone's life was being threatened, and they simply acted to save  their lives" ]]> 2017-05-18 16:01:40 UTC https://padlet.com/latayvia_flanning1/8pjya9vui034/wish/172624233
