Seems like a couple of you guys are disappointed no matter what. No action taken, its bad. Police chief resigns, its bad.

Chief resigned because it was clear that this was going to be a huge shitstorm.
Said the other day on the BLM thread that there is no reason for body cams to be turned off. Defeats the point of even having them. The officers shouldn't even be able to switch off their body cams, any more than you'd tolerate an employee elsewhere turning off CCTV.

A malfunction is an entirely separate issue.

Castile was unarmed, had called the cops himself and was in his pyjamas?

Though I certainly would say Castile had a sympathetic story which is why it became such big news and an iconic story.
