There is an ironic literary parallel with that woman cop killing that young black man-she claiming it was a tragic accident. Instead of her teaser she grabbed her handgun and fired one fatal shot at the young black man. Parallel is in French writer Albert Camus' novel " THE STRANGER". The dramatic turning point scene where the 30 year old Meursault - in a sort of sunstroke hallucination-- kills an Arab flashing a knife at him . In Camus' s novel Meursault is found guilty and sentenced to death. In the end not Justice but THE ABSURD is victorious. But what was THE TRUTH?

L'Étranger (French: [l‿e.tʁɑ̃.ʒe]) is a 1942 novella by French author Albert Camus. Its theme and outlook are often cited as examples of Camus' philosophy, absurdism coupled with existentialism, though Camus personally rejected the latter label.[1]
