He never has been, nor is he currently, a liar.Would depend on what they actually entailed, and what the exact circumstances of the shooting were. If the disciplinary actions were for a scenario such as BBI outlined as a possibility, then not much. But if that incident (or incidents) included lying to his supervisors about what he had done with his take-home car, and/or not being truthful about his sick/injury status, that would be different matter. Especially if we then had to rely on only his statement, his truthfulness, as to what happened during the shooting -- such as saying the dead guy went for his gun when there are no other witnesses or video. ( I understand there was video, and hopefully it clears things up.) I think the past history of that address is pretty relevant as to what the cops were mentally prepared for when they went to that address -- in other words relevant to what happened -- but the history of the police can be relevant as well. As always, it depends on exactly what the facts are.
