Police officers in court cases don't have to meet that standard until it established that they do not have qualified immunity. In vastly more than 9 out of 10 cases, they do, and thus that standard is completely irrelevant.
- giantg2 7mo agoQualified immunity only applies to civil cases, not criminal.
- PaulDavisThe1st 7mo agoMost (not all) cases against police officers for excessive/fatal use of force are civil (typically civil rights violations).
