^ Yeah, the dashcam video doesn't change anything for me either.
It was already known that Walter Scott dashed (presumably for fear of being arrested for unpaid child support). That in no way justifies Slager unloading his service weapon into the back of a fleeing unarmed Walter Scott.
The dashcam contradicts what Slager reportedly claimed initially - that a violent encounter had gone down before Walter fled. It also looks like there's a passenger in Walter's car. Wonder what he or she has to say?

Anyway, Walter's mom and brother ^ are completely torn up. They're planning to sue the police force, I believe. But, they don't want Walter's death turned into a circus with Al Sharpton as the ringleader; they "do not want another Ferguson". Walter's family has asked shit-stirrin' Al to stay away and let them grieve. Good for them.
