Statewatch Analysis: Germany: Berlin police chief sentenced: Eight shots were not self-defence (pdf)

It is not often that police officers face serious charges in court. The investigation into the police shooting that took the life of Dennis J. was repeatedly delayed, but did result in a trial that saw police officers sentenced for their actions. The judgement was right in principle, but disappointing in its sentence.
