Yesterday I Saw Multiple Videos Of This Shooting - Yet They Seem To Be Only Showing......

the same video. The others I've seen show the shooting from other vantage points.

Why aren't we seeing all the videos?

one I saw shows an ice agent trying to open the vehicle door, and don’t see how that was a threat to that idiot agent. It was more of a threat to the person inside the vehicle.

Two of them on mainstream news (one front, one from the driver's side). The third doesn't show enough to be useful.

You've obviously seen some is them, so I don't understand your question about them not being shown.

and never again. On the news show they only show the same one - over and over.

I'm just questioning as to why they are not showing all the videos - from all the different angles.

It just bothers me that maybe there's a reason as to why they don't show all the vids they have.

What would be the point of showing slightly different angles?

But showing a video of a person being killed is not an easy decision. The responsible stations viewed it repeatedly, verified it was actually a video of the events, wrestled with whether to show it at all - and decided it was important. But unless a different video shows something new, the harm of showing it outweighs the benefits of doing so.

The two they are showing fairly regularly show two different angles. The closer view from the driver's side (likely taken by the woman visible in the first video which started circulating on the internet), and the distant one from the front of the vehicle. The added perspective of the second makes the benefit outweigh the harms of repeatedly showing a woman's death.

only grazed if at all. The killer had to move around to the open window to fire a double tap to make sure he killed her.

Horrible. Just horrible.
