  1. @Jack Chapman you are correct, the case law I presented did have a "poker" involved, however, I request that you think of this from a use of force continuum point of view. The use of force "tree", if you will, can go from less than lethal directly to lethal based upon what the officer knows and his abilities. A example of this is if a small, female officer gets approached by a huge, beefy guy and he swings a fist at her, that officer would be authorized to use lethal force as the force being used against her could be seen as lethal. 

    My knowledge of getting hit by punches was entirely based off of 3 seconds into Exhibit A, where I was under the impression that the man in the black was incapacitated after getting punched. After I was hit just once by the man in the blue who came out of nowhere and ambushed me, if I became incapacitated by that punch it could have resulted in the civilians getting ahold of my weapons and using them against me, hence the deadly force. 

    What I am trying to say your honor is that I based my actions off of what I knew and witnessed because of the of training and availability of knowledge that the failed REA to give me. In fairness to the MST, they allegedly have SOPs regarding these kind of situations specifically or at the least they go over what to do in these situations. This is solely based upon conversations I have had with members of the MST after the shooting. With this in mind I would also like to Motion for Discovery the MST SOPs regarding this to show just how much from a law enforcement perspective I was missing. 

  2. 15 minutes ago, Oliver Shaw said:

    Motion to suppress - I implore that this motion be denied, as this is an inevitable discovery and the defendant has not even been provided evidence at this time, as the prosecution will during the discovery period. I'm unsure as to what else the defendant means by this statement.

    I have been provided evidence.... I am unsure what you mean by that statement. 

    16 minutes ago, Oliver Shaw said:

    The MSP has no reason to be blamed in this case, as the defendant failed to execute and follow his required duties as outlined in his SOPS.

    You argue this yet I was the one that had to make the motion to make the SOPs public. As of now you are grossily and using a improper argument that you have yet to provide evidence for yourself AS THE PROSECUTION. 

    20 minutes ago, Oliver Shaw said:

    the defendant acted on his own accord, became involved in the situation without permission and acted outside of his jurisdiction.

    No proof as to what my jurisdiction was. 

    20 minutes ago, Oliver Shaw said:

    The fact the defendant is claiming he didn't know how to fight, proves he was out of his depth and clearly unsuitable to perform law enforcement duties. 

    It is up to the employer in this case to provide training to be able to perform such duties. I can tell you now as the person whom it concerns I did not receive such training or any information at that from said employer. You can only do what you are trained to do and I was trained to defend myself how I thought was necessary while matching force (which is a department SOP, not a law). Matching force to me in this instant would've still meant deadly force with my pistol instead of the MP5 (Unless of course I was made more aware that the very first guy was not incapacitated and instead just knocked down)

     

    Due to the obvious prosecutorial misconduct seen above where Mr Shaw is seeming failing to disclose exculpatory evidence that he knows about (Knows my SOPs apparently but didn't bring them forth as evidence) AND by doing so using improper arguments by stating my duty is first to my SOPs vs the public as a public servant I request that Mr Shaw be removed from counsel for the remainder of this case. 

    As Mr Shaw also had stated, but I am sure he will want to rebuttal this whole statement anyway, the defense awaits a judge to be assigned.

  3. I will be representing myself. Here are some pretrial motions to help get the ball rolling

    Motion to Suppress the following statement on account of off island issues: "Agent Warhorse proceeded to shoot a few more rounds into the incapacitated civilian’s head." (OOC: Server desync)

    Motion for Dismissal on the grounds of failure of due diligence to stop the situation prior to happening on the side of the MST Responding. As seen in Exhibit A, law enforcement can see me with a firearm pulled on people with their fists raised towards me like they are about to fight me. Instead of pulling up onto the scene then and there and assisting a Officer who was very obviously in need of assistance, the responding MST instead waited until I fired a shot to defend myself to then pull firearms on ME with a active threat still in the area as seen later in the video. I was later assaulted a second time and forced to defend myself AGAIN with 2 other officers on scene where I was then taken into custody and, as of yet, I have seen nothing of the assaulter being arrested nor was I checked up upon by the fellow public servants who responded here.

    Per US District Court case Plakas v. Drinski, law enforcement are not required to attempt to use less than lethal force prior to using lethal force if they believe their life is in immediate danger and when in self defense. I was unaware there was backup in the area and I was going to call for it but I was on the REA Frequency because of a active PD situation that you can hear in the video that I did not/was not allowed to be involved in. Due to this, calling for backup did not happen as fast as I would've wanted but with the showing of this evidence, there was officers nearby that could've helped but failed to do so. 

    EDIT: Something I forgot to mention, in the first 3 seconds of exhibit A you can see a civilian knock down another civilian. I was lead to believe that he was incapacitated, not just knocked down. This was another reason why I was lead to pull a firearm immediately because if it were made clearer that the civilian that was hit there in the first 3 seconds was just knocked out/down I would have used my taser as the situation would not have appeared directly life threatening.

    I now know, but didn't at the time, how the fist combat worked. I was going off of my years of law enforcement experience that said if you got hit by something like that you were going to get incapacitated in 1 or two shots, and I was not taking those kind of chances. 

    I am further protected by the US Supreme Court case in 1989 Graham vs Connor where the court held: officers can use deadly force if it is proven to be “reasonable” based on the circumstances of a specific situation.

    The reason this is "reasonable" in the defense's opinion is that there was a lack of training, armament, and due diligence also on behalf of the Revenue Enforcement Agency to train and inform their officers on how to correctly handle situations like this one, making this reasonable for the sole reason of lack of knowledge due to lack of training at the fault of the DOR. 

    To back up these prior statements regarding DOR training methods and SOPs regarding self defense, I would like to Motion to Discover the related documents within the government. 

    I would also like to request the court delay any kind of preceding pending internal affairs investigations within the MST, I will be requesting to whomever the judge in this trial may be order my investigation halted on the REA side of things until the outcome of this trial is known.
