I am generally in support of the police but there are too <br />many things wrong with this killing. I have not seen any account that <br />Brandon was armed or threatened the police. He did not listen to their <br />commands for four hours but he did propose a threat to himself, police or <br />the public. <br />His family was not allowed to talk to him which could have ended the <br />crisis without violence. Plus how does Anaheim PD take over control <br />when he was in the city of Santa Ana? Why did the Anaheim PD shoot to <br />kill and not to disable? Why used bullets instead of a stun gun? I truly <br />believe Brandon's death was not necessary <br /> <br />So what I would propose is that the City Council ask an independent <br />agency, like the OCDA or NAACP to conduct a full investigation. Their <br />report should then be shared with the Council, SAPD and citizens of Santa <br />Ana. <br /> <br />Carl Benninger <br />President of Com-link <br />1829 W.
