re: Memphis police officer shot and killed while responding to suspicious vehicle report;

States should start passing legislation that allows victims and victims families to hold public office holder personally liable for willful neglect of duty as it pertains to public safety. This officers family should have the right to personally sue the DA for his decisions to release the guy who eventually killed the officer.

I feel like this liability would be more easily proven in court than that ruling that the Swiss government was liable for damage to its citizens from climate change.

At worst it's dereliction of duty.

RIP to that cop, I feel for his family.
