The problem I have with what happened is all the lies that were told by the police afterwards to cover their asses.

1) They were claiming that he jumped the barrier at the station, when in reality he paid his fare and walked leisurely into the station. He even took the time to buy a newspaper.
2) They were claiming that he was wearing a bulky jacket and carrying a bag when he entered the station. In reality, he wasn't carrying a bad and was wearing a denim jacket.
3) They were claiming that he ran into the station and jumped onto the train after police ordered him to stop. In reality, he only ran for the train when he got to the bottom of the escalator. The reason he ran for the train was to catch it before it left. Once he got on the train, he sat down. It's at this point that he was thrown to the ground by police and then shot 8 times in the head.

Mistakes happen. Sometimes mistakes happen where people get killed by police. However, to lie about it later on to make the guy look like he "deserved" it is what is reprehensible. There is no defending that.
