Under that scenario, should you be charged with murder if you fatally hit somebody in a crosswalk and have a blood alcohol level of .08? As I understand it, that is a common "drunk" level set by most states in regard to ability to drive. AND as I understand it, .08 to the average size male is about 1.5 drinks in the course of an hour > <. Did the 1.5 drinks you had cause you to hit the person in the intersection?
Murder?
BTW, I cannot imagine WHY three cops need to shoot ANYBODY to subdue them. three? Looks way bad for them. However, all details are not available yet, and they deserve their day in court
