It appears to have been a horrible but obviously avoidable mistake. The cop will pay for this for the rest of his life. Oakland taxpayers have already paid a very large sum - but not tremendously large. It seems that the lawyers for the victim's kin didn't want another jury to see this tape so they settled early and out of court.
One really should consider the action of the family's lawyers here.
