"what we need to do to move forward: rebuild trust and ensure accountability so no one is above the law."

In other words, "I'm not judging this case, but if this isn't murder or manslaughter, this dead man's family and community sure sees it that way, so be prepared. If justice exists, the killer should be held accountable for the act, badge or not."
