Michael Slager, Police officer in North Charleston, South Carolina, was arrested yesterday April 7th and charged for murder after the video (watch below) was seen by police.
However, he had initially claimed that he shot Scott because he feared for his life, but the shocking video captured by a bystander who has been hailed as a hero; showed how he shot a fleeing unarmed black man five times in the back then handcuffed his lifeless body after he crumpled on the ground.
