Shooting by Sheriff's Deputy

AirTalk for August 3, 2006

Larry Mantle discusses the shooting on Tuesday by a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy of a suspect who took the deputies on a short pursuit through Compton. The suspect, Lawrence Taylor, appeared to be driving erratically. Taylor turned the car toward a deputy who dove out of the way in order not to be hit and his partner opened fire. The suspect died from his wounds. Was the Deputy's use of force justified? Larry Mantle talks with criminologist David Klinger about the incident and takes listener calls. Guest: David Klinger, Associate Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
