Brooks' wife, Tomika Miller, told ABC News on Sunday that she wanted to see both officers arrested and the officer who was placed on administrative duty terminated.
"They don't need to be responding with guns and Tasers and things like that to a guy, sleeping in a parking lot situation," an attorney for Brooks' family, L. Chris Stewart, told ABC News on Sunday. "There needs to be a certain branch of police departments that handle stuff like that."
"That's how these situations escalate. They need to not be over policing, inner-city communities for minor stuff like this," he said.


Mz brooks, now a single black mother, says she feels like just a statistic.

What was she before....she was a black single mother.

In a statement on Wednesday, attorneys for the officers said "Mr. Brooks chose to violently attack two uniformed police officers."
The officers "attempted to leverage him to the ground while giving him loud, clear verbal commands ... in response, Mr. Brooks continued actively resisting lawful efforts to arrest him," the attorneys said. "He then escalated his resistance by punching Officer Rolfe in the face."
"Mr. Brooks continued his assault and disarmed Officer Brosnan, stealing his city-issued TASER," the attorneys said. "Instead of merely trying to escape, Mr. Brooks reached back with his arm extended and pointed an object at Officer Rolfe. Officer Rolfe heard a sound like a gunshot and saw a flash in front of him. Fearing for his safety, and the safety of the civilians around him, Officer Rolfe dropped his taser and fired his service weapon at the only portion of Mr. Brooks that presented to him - Mr. Brooks' back."

The attorneys say Rolfe's actions were justified under the law.
"When Mr. Brooks turned and pointed an object at Officer Rolfe, any officer would have reasonably believed that he intended to disarm, disable, or seriously injure him," they said.

She is already a single mother, because the father/husband wasn't at home where he should have been.
With all these lawyers with cameras on the street I'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.
This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.
How come nobody was interested in educating people about these rights until online videos got monetization?

Those two cops wouldn't have charges against them if the big doofus had not ran with the taser.

When is anything going to be the criminals fault? Maybe if Brooks wasn't drinking and driving or passing out in a drive thru or resisting arrest or assaulting a cop or stealing a cop's weapon or running from a cop or firing on a cop he might still be alive.
