Let me Get This Straight....

Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie rips on the District Attorney for conducting a grand jury investigation for the police shooting of Stanley Gibson, but then says serious mistakes were made, serious enough to fire a police officer and suspend, demote or other wise punish other police officers.
From the LVRJ: Police officers involved in the fatal shooting of Stanley Gibson received the most severe penalties for a police shooting in the history of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Officer Jesus Arevalo, who fired the fatal shots from his AR-15 rifle, faces termination.
Lt. David Dockendorf, who oversaw the failed plan to extract Gibson from his pinned-in Cadillac, will be demoted two ranks, to officer.
Sgt. Michael Hnatuick, who devised the plan, was given a major suspension of 40 hours without pay.
Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie handed down the punishment Friday afternoon following the conclusion of the department’s lengthy internal critical incident review process.
Gillespie said Gibson’s death stemmed from “critical missteps in leadership and supervision.”
But only Arevalo used deadly force, and only he will face termination, he said.
“When discipline is warranted, these decisions are never easy,” Gillespie said. “But as difficult as it may be, people must be held accountable when the situation dictates. And this situation dictates just that.”   http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/crime-courts/las-vegas-cops-involved-stanley-gibson-shooting-face-unprecedented-punishment
The Grand Jury and the Fed's, who also conducted an investigation, found no problems, criminal or civil, with what happened.
What happened that night was the fault of many.  From the Nevada mental health system, Stanley Gibson, his family, the communications and the cops, especially the leadership, were all at fault. 
But the biggest blame goes to the victim himself.  It may because he refused treatment or refused to take his meds or refused to get any help, he put himself in the position in which he died.  The next in line for blame is the family.  If he didn't get proper mental health treatment, then they should have tried harder and tried more resources.  If the family and Gibson tried harder, maybe he would still be alive.
But it looks like Gillespie is throwing the officers under the bus.
